Trevor Hall - Under Pressure lyrics
[Trevor Hall - Under Pressure lyrics]
Under pressure, under pressure
The world is comin’ in cold
But, I’ve got some magic
To melt all the stone
Under pressure, under pressure
But baby we can’t lose
‘Cause oceans of flavor
They sing from this room
Blessed are the strong let us sing long
Sing beyond right, Darling, sing beyond wrong
Sing beyond the walls
Oh the walls that we build
‘Cause this time it’s shoot to kill
So let it bless our lips
Let us only speak of hope
Lay the rhythm down, Darling
This is how we cope
We follow melodies, swallow up the seven seas
Watch it grow like trees while we
Hold on to the rope
Drifting in the current as
It flows through dreadlocks
If they close the door, well
We continue to knock
Dancing with our hands to the ceiling
This is such a sacred feeling
I’m believing that this song will never stop
The lineage is callin’, friend of the fallin’
People running round but now there’ll
Be no more stallin’
Because the book has been opened and
The called few are chosen
Now it's time to break the clocks yeah
Under pressure, under pressure
The world is comin’ in cold
But, I’ve got some magic to
Melt all the stone
Under pressure, under pressure
But baby we can’t lose
‘Cause oceans of flavor
They sing from this room under pressure
Under pressure
Well how can we go down
When were bathing in the sound
Of the great souls come tenfold
Fire on the tongue as we’re
Drinking from the sun
It ain’t no evil, I’ve been told
Words are the arrow, song is the bow
Rhythm is the hunter and it
Shoots for my soul
Heart is the mirror, eyes the window
Gaze upon the most high, come fly home
I know the stars hold an ancient secret
Ash on my skin, well, you best believe it
Born of a holy tribe
Now it’s either do or die
Which way you wanna fly
In this concrete jungle
Don’t forget about the roots
Never falling down we hold the parachutes
In this age of darkness we cling to truth
They water the leaves, but we water the roots
Under pressure under pressure
Under pressure, under pressure
The world’s comin’ in cold
But, I’ve got some magic to
Melt all the stone
Under pressure, under pressure
But, baby, we can’t lose
‘Cause oceans of flavor they
Sing from this room
Under pressure, under pressure
But we say bless go round
Come rise like a lion, take shelter in sound
Under pressure under pressure
Under pressure
The world is comin’ in cold
But, I’ve got some magic
To melt all the stone
Under pressure, under pressure
But baby we can’t lose
‘Cause oceans of flavor
They sing from this room
Blessed are the strong let us sing long
Sing beyond right, Darling, sing beyond wrong
Sing beyond the walls
Oh the walls that we build
‘Cause this time it’s shoot to kill
So let it bless our lips
Let us only speak of hope
Lay the rhythm down, Darling
This is how we cope
We follow melodies, swallow up the seven seas
Watch it grow like trees while we
Hold on to the rope
Drifting in the current as
It flows through dreadlocks
If they close the door, well

Dancing with our hands to the ceiling

The lineage is callin’, friend of the fallin’
