Pressure Songtext / Lyric

Stay there, if you wan' stay there making complaints

I'ma change my own fate

I'm the same kid that was starving

Scraping on plates

Now I drive a new plate

Late night fighting those demons

Praying for a break

I just pray I don't break

You only get one shot

There is not a outtake, uh

I pray you make it out safe



Even my mum put pressure on me

And then my son put pressure on me

Even the slum put pressure on me

But pressure makes diamonds

Even my mum put pressure on me

And then my son put pressure on me

Even the slum put pressure on me

But pressure makes diamonds

Look what the pressure made

It made you make it

Singing "Started from the Bottom"

Cause you started from the bottom, in the basement

Look at what the pressure made

It made you make it

Singer started from the bottom

Cause you started from the bottom, in the basement



Ima take you back to '03

See my olders used to have a cold steez

I swear, everyting they wore was off-key

And I just wanna see them jackets on me

Remember Sticher in the coup with OG

Or Ratty when he had the cold Jeep

I swear everyting they wore was on freeze

I mean everyting they wore was on fleek

See the jungle where I live is concrete

I'm just tryna be a Mowgli

And everybody's trapping 'round me

But nobody ain't styling on me

I turned into the older that I always wan' be

I cop my first Q from C's

I'm tryna build my line, I can't sleep

Then I built my line and now I can't sleep

Now my neighbors dem are getting nosey

Cah I'm in and out, can't pass three

And my baby mother's getting lonely

And every day she says she wan' leave

Now the next ting, she saying she ah breed

I can't breathe

Cah now I gotta make some more P

But it's getting cat and mouse with the police

I just got a chase, had to dash a lil B

Came back couldn't even find E

And then the fucking feds even tried to take Z

And when they came back, man, the fuckers took P

They raided 6 yards it was 6: 30

Federali looking the army

So now I got the feeling that they're tryna swarm me

So now I'm only rapping on beats



Even my mum put pressure on me

And then my son put pressure on me

Even the slum put pressure on me

But pressure makes diamonds

Even my mum put pressure on me

And then my son put pressure on me

Even the slum put pressure on me

But pressure makes diamonds

Now I got my whole fam banking on me

Cause if I don't provide then nobody don't eat

The Lord made a giant out of little old me

Cause pressure made I, man

Now I got my whole fam banking on me

Cause if I don't provide then nobody don't eat

The Lord made a giant out of little old me

Cause pressure made I, man, yeah



All the stresses, yeah

For us, adult adolescents

I been getting paid just to finish off my sentence

Same time my little brother's trying to finish off his sentence

We just wanna shine, we put diamonds in our pendants

Truth is, we're just trying to find some independence

Our descendants probably look and think we look horrendous

Which side is your preference? Love and hate got four letters

Those who wish me death, I just say they got a deathwish

Call them toy soliders, I can eat them for my breakfast

Put them in my eggs, leave them running till they're breathless

Or put them in the pan, let them sizzle till they perish

I'm a diamond and I'm precious, my diamond's from the pressure
