Kojey Radical, Shae Universe - Pressure lyrics

How you gon' act when the cameras flash?
Would you strike a pose?
Would you double back?
Can you withstand the pressure?
And how you gon' move when all eyes on you?
Could you walk a day in my shiny shoes?
Can you withstand the pressure?

Keep your heart cold, play your part
Even when it's hard
Don't let 'em take yo' heart from you
Many men gon' miss the missing
Friends might get to switchin' on you
Twitter fingers sneak dissin'
Back-stabbin', incision
Brothers I would ride for
I don't know their new addresses
Mothers I would cry with
Even though I know who did it
Secrets I might die with
Couple masks I slide with
Way before the virus, way before the millage
God knows I been tryin'
Gettin' every night in
Mama told me
"Patience is the key" and
She weren't lyin'
Done with all the cryin', fussin'
And defyin'
Heavy is the crown, but
I'ma wear it 'til I die
You're supposed to be the king
People still dependin' on you
Even on yo' dark days
Keep a little love inside you
Keep a little hope aside
Defend it like the back four
Even when the Devil stride
Even when your homies die
Way before the summertime
That happened in another life
Niggas die everyday B, you'll be alright
If you stop, the money's stoppin'
And we ain't goin' back to crime
Stop all the complainin' bro
Remember that you chose this life
So

How you gon' act when the cameras flash?
Would you strike a pose?
Would you double back?
Can you withstand the pressure?
And how you gon' move when all eyes on you?
Could you walk a day in my shiny shoes?
Can you withstand the pressure? (Uh)

In 2017, I had a five-figure debt
In 2018, I had to find my respect
I know my inner peace was
Never comfortable with less
2019, my compliments to the chef
I'm cookin'
Season with a little bit of luck
2020 came, I made a mill' before lunch
Took my family shoppin' for a
House out in Count'
In a real-life, show you what it takes, but
You won't know what it feels like
To hold this kind of weight and
Still walk with your head high
My noose was gettin' looser every
Time I took a step
Money came in faster than I knew
What to do with it
From young
I got condition like a movie from Coober Rick
To think it would clocked be that
I wanted some stupid shit
Fell in love with pussy and
Petroleum on lonely nights
Gave a lot of wisdom
Wasn't takin' my own advice
I didn't get warnin' if
Were talkin' 'bout

How you gon' act when the cameras flash?
Would you strike a pose?
Would you double back?
Can you withstand the pressure?
And how you gon' move when all eyes on you?
Could you walk a day in my shiny shoes?
Can you withstand the pressure?

My life in Ghana was alright, it was okay
But, you know
When you are in Ghana
And the opportunity come
To come to England, you jump for it
Especially when my mother struggled in life
Raising her children
So when I had a chance to come
My aim is to come
And then work hard
And look after her as well
And I came in at wintertime
Which was December
So it was hard, and that I wanted to go back
