Andy Mineo, Co Campbell - Pressure lyrics

Feel the pressure, new semester
Everybody's gettin' fly gotta dress up
And parents pay a lot of money they expect ya
To make a lot of money
So you don't wanna mess up
Now you're stressed, huh try your best but
Why it never seems enough to impress 'em
And you just wanna hear 'em say "Good job"
'Stead of "Get a good job"
So tell me where is your rest, huh?
And parents feel the strain too
Cause they named you
And they got the responsibility to raise you
If you turn out like a
Demon instead of an angel
Then they be catchin' the blame
For bringing the family shame
When kids have kids, they run and abandon
Others stick around, model broken examples
Clean ones nobody's hands is
And sometimes this life's got
More questions than answers

I feel the pressure, yeah
Coming from every side
I feel the pressure, yeah
Knocked down but I'm still alive
When I feel the pressure, yeah
Like where do I run to?
When I feel the pressure, pressure, pressure
Pressure

Look, you ever feel like you're wandering?
No aims, no accomplishments
Life's passing by
Gotta make something out of it
And every time the clock tick
You be so reminded how time flies
But, you ain't in the cockpit
And birthdays are like the worst days
There's turmoil in your heart but
Celebration on the surface
Cause Mondays it's right back
To that workplace
Where you hate it, but you gotta get paid
Yeah I could feel the pressure too
Every time I'm speakin' on the microphone
Different crowds on the weekends
Cause, I remember what James
Said about teachin'
And why is everybody scrutinizing
What I'm tweetin'
Signed to that Reach camp expectations way
Higher than decent
I became free when I seen God's peace
Rested in it knowing that He's please
D with me now I don't gotta please, men

I feel the pressure, yeah
Coming from every side
I feel the pressure, yeah
Knocked down but I'm still alive
When I feel the pressure, yeah
Like where do I run to?
When I feel the pressure, pressure, pressure
Pressure

I'm free, I'm alive feeling good, alright
And you can't take my joy
And you can't take my joy
I'm free, I'm alive feeling good, alright
And you can't take my joy
(Cause the world didn't give it to me)
And you can't take my joy
(Cause the world didn't give it to me)
