Pressure

(album: Nobody's Perfect - 2023)

They say pressure make diamonds but I feel alot of pressure on my back lately
And I wanna give up but I gotta put the world on my back baby
I done came from alot just to get to the top like Ahhh
It's a whole lot of pressure, but I'm still applying pressure, uhhh

Ok, from the jump
Hit the squad and told em, I'm a run it up
I'm cold with it, standing next to me you better bundle up
I'm froze with it, might put all my diamonds in a slushee cup
My flow is crack, his flow is mid, tell em, you ain't dope enough
Your heart pump Kool-Aid and mine pump Dussee
Please don't talk to me cause I been up two days
How you tap dance and run away but still too lame
Gotta keep it on you cause they shooting like it's 2k
Whoa, not at me, no not at me
I'm out the way, just want the green, I'm low key (Loki)
And if I take an L, bet I learn from every lesson
First the rise, then the fall, when you buckle under pressure

They say pressure make diamonds but I feel alot of pressure on my back lately
And I wanna give up but I gotta put the world on my back baby
I done came from alot just to get to the top like Ahhh
It's a whole lot of pressure, but I'm still applying pressure, uhhh

Applying pressure like I'm bleeding out
You look at me and see my life and know what he about
It's scary now,
I ain't gotta do a song again, my catalog will cover it
I heard you had the summer hot, I guess I better smother it
Back again,
Ummmmm I was sitting out
Fame worse than dope, got you goofies out here chasing clout
Thumbing through them hundreds, that advance money running out
Commas turn to zero, it's the end, that's what this point about
Then that car go back to dealership
You pawning all your jewelry
And you got is memories
That's when you find humility
They come come and go but never learn from any lesson
First the rise and the fall, when you buckle under pressure

They say pressure make diamonds but I feel alot of pressure on my back lately
And I wanna give up but I gotta put the world on my back baby
I done came from alot just to get to the top like Ahhh
It's a whole lot of pressure, but I'm still applying pressure, uhhh

What you know about pressure
Bullet in your body laid out on a stretcher
Doctors in the room trying to put you back together
Mind everywhere trying to keep it all together
Voices in your head like this gone make you better
You better not give up.
What you mean you can't walk
Take your bed and get up
Sure as God rose up
On the third diz-ay
I rose from the ashes again, like God with us
Y'all had to adapt to the dark, I was shaped in it
I been through so much pain in my life,
I should be atheist
If pressure makes diamonds,
You looking at the great star
And I'm doing good thus far
Yea, big pressure

They say pressure make diamonds but I feel alot of pressure on my back lately
And I wanna give up but I gotta put the world on my back baby
I done came from alot just to get to the top like Ahhh
It's a whole lot of pressure, but I'm still applying pressure, uhhh
