Pressure

(album: Perspective - 2019)

Half of my friends are getting married
The other half are at the bar
Can't help but laughing at the irony
Society's so full of egos and

Your momma raised you all alone, oh
Don't want you making all the same mistakes
So you grew up believing
You could lose everything to love if you don't play it safe, safe

Feels like there's a lot of places we should be
I got a lot of people here to please
Afraid of strangers, friends and family
So consider this apology

If I don't make it
'Cause I can't fake it
Under the pressure
Under the pressure
It's not okay when
Everyone's breaking
Under the pressure
Hard to get better
Under the pressure, yeah, yeah

I used to think I had it figured out (Figured out)
I thought the world was in my hands (In my hands)
Then the word got in my head and told me I'm too far behind to even try
I'd never make it, yeah (Never make it, never make it, yeah)

Feels like there's too many places we should be
I got a lot of people here to please
Afraid of strangers, friends and family
So consider this apology

If I don't make it
'Cause I can't fake it
Under the pressure
Under the pressure, yeah
It's not okay when
Everyone's breaking
Under the pressure
Hard to get better
Under the pressure, yeah

The pressure, the pressure (Oh-oh)
The pressure, the pressure (Oh-oh)

They tell me they're so [?], yeah
They need a physical [?]
I'm trying

I'm trying, I'm trying to make it (The pressure, the pressure)
'Cause I can't fake it (The pressure, the pressure)
Under the pressure (The pressure, the pressure)
Under the pressure, yeah (The pressure, the pressure)
It's not okay when
Everyone's breaking
Under the pressure
Hard to get better
Under the pressure, yeah
