Pressure
I been feeling under pressure for a long time
But you know what they say
Pressure makes diamonds
I'm under pressure all the time
Shining like a diamond people tryna dim my lights
For the past few years I admit it I been trippin
Dealing with depression steady going through regressions
Always kept it to myself walkin round with fake smiles
To paint a perfect picture man I need a new artist
And in the beginning yeah my raps was pretty garbage
Cussing every other word tryna be D'Wayne Carter
Then I noticed
G you gotta be your self
And watch your back cuz people wanna see you fail
And them be people who at first walked out
Then once you make it come back wanting help
Yeah I get it
No kidding
Do you know the feeling waking up with no feelings
That's when I drop the top bumping No Ceilings
Cruisin 635 letting out my demons
P-R-E-double S-U-R-E
That's what I'm dealing with all 52 weeks
Hit rock bottom but the rock still getting deep
Wonder when I'll make it out fullfilling my destiny
Rides been bumpy man life's been a journey
Hit a couple dead ends plus my rear view lookin blurry
On the road to happiness
Show me where the map ends
It's been 23 years
I'm tired of being trapped in
So it's time to live my life
One day imma end this fight
Back up all against the ropes
Swingin' like I'm Iron Mike
Trapped in my dark mind
Searching for the bright light
Leading me to paradise
Somewhere where the sun shines
Never took no handouts
Not looking for no sympathy
Took a knee and talked to God
Then I had epiphanies
Future lookin clearer
It's lookin 20/20
My time is coming up
I can hear my clock ticking
Pressure
Yeah I feel the weight on my shoulders
Tryna dust em off feelin like a young HOVA
To live my life you can't be just any soldier
Everyday I'm fighting battles tryna do some heroic
Then I noticed
It's time to focus on myself or
I'm here all alone no one knows how I've felt
Gotta reshuffle I had a bad hand dealt
Never ever had no luck but I'm used to how that feels
That's real
I'm jotting down my memories
Seein how dark they are God please forgive me
Washed my sins away now the water lookin murky,
Watch it all evaporate it's coming back to drown me
It's haunting
Don't ever know what's coming next
Go to sleep with smiles then I wake up full of stress
Every days a new day but it's all the same steps
So I'm searching for a different route before I take my next
Releasing pressure
They never said it was easy
Outchea chasing dreams but its night mares when I'm sleeping
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray the lord my soul to keep
God before I wake please clear me from my enemies
Yeah I switched the flow up
And I really gotta show it
I will never take a loss it's just battles that I'm closing
I don't know what it's like
To be out hear living life
Without no worries but I feel it coming anytime
Have you ever felt the pressure
On you 24/7
Feelin lost and then your found
Then back dealin with your stresses
I'm living so wreckless
Won't wish on the next one
If I had just one wish
I wish didn't feel threatened
Going through this tough lesson
Asking myself tough questions
Searching for my brighter days
My past looking so depressing
I'm keep looking cuz I know I got a better life
All this pressure held me down I'm breaking chains to paradise
All this pressure held me down Im breaking chains to paradise
All this pressure held me down I'm breaking chains to paradise
