LYRICS
Intro
Under pressure … under pressure
Verse
The old guard says I gotta toe the line or the good life’s gonna pass me by
They put the weight of their world upon me and tell me to fly
It’s like it’s all planned out, every movement, every step I take
And if I ain’t subservient then my chance for success is gonna fade away
Chorus
Under pressure … pressure … pressure
Under pressure – it feels like it’s out of control
Under pressure – my head wants to explode
Under pressure – it claws at my heart and soul
Under pressure – but I ain’t giving in
Verse
Status quo doesn’t know my dreams or what it takes to achieve them
And I don’t want anybody else to tell me what to believe in
I’m my own harshest critic and I never think I’m good enough
But I don’t need gutless cyber judgements that can lift a selfish, sorry ego up
Chorus
Feel the pressure … feel the pressure … feel the pressure
Under pressure – it feels like it’s out of control
Under pressure – my head wants to explode
Under pressure – it claws at my heart and soul
Under pressure – but I ain’t giving in
Bridge
Don’t tell me what I need or what I oughta be, I’ll live my life
I don’t buy-in to your vision
I will make my own decision what is right
Let the sinless standalone and be the first to cast the stone, just as you preach
I don’t want to reach your measure so forever I’ll endeavor to be me … to be me … to be me
Chorus
Under pressure – it feels like it’s out of control
Under pressure – my head wants to explode
Under pressure – it claws at my heart and soul
Under pressure – but I ain’t giving in
Under pressure
