Pressure
I wish I was above the centre of attention, but I'm not
I wish I didn't have to give in to the pressure, oh, oh, hmm
I'm posting pictures, trying to be someone I'm not
Feels just like I'm lying to you
I fake it, stage shit, trying to live some perfect life
I know I'm wasting time
'Cause I just wanna call my friends
And see what they are doing tonight
It doesn't have to be so special
I try to be myself, you do the same, and we'll be alright, a-a-ight, a-a-ight
'Cause this pressure is really bringing me down, ah-ah-'own, ah-ah-'own
I wish I had the guts to start a conversation with someone (with someone)
Just be who I am, not care so much 'bout first impressions, ooh, ooh, hmm
'Cause I got a feeling that it could be great
Skip all the acts, stop playing games
May be revealing the real me and tell you my name
Yeah, I got a feeling that it could be great
Skip all the acts, stop playing games
No more concealing the real me, I won't be ashamed
'Cause I just wanna call my friends (my friends)
And see what they are doing tonight (tonight)
It doesn't have to be so special
I try to be myself, you do the same, and we'll be alright, a-a-ight, a-a-ight
'Cause this pressure is really bringing me down, ah-ah-'own, ah-ah-'own
Hmm, hmm, no, no, no, ay, ay
Pressure is really bringing me down, ey, hmm
I wish I was above the centre of attention, but I'm not
I wish I didn't have to give in to the pressure, oh, oh
'Cause I just wanna call my friends (yeah)
And see what they are doing tonight
It doesn't have to be so special
I try to be myself, you do the same, and we'll be alright, a-a-ight, a-a-ight
'Cause this pressure is really bringing me down, ah-ah-'own, ah-ah-'own, hmm
I wish I didn't have to give in to the pressure, oh, oh, hmm
I'm posting pictures, trying to be someone I'm not
Feels just like I'm lying to you
I fake it, stage shit, trying to live some perfect life
I know I'm wasting time
'Cause I just wanna call my friends
And see what they are doing tonight
It doesn't have to be so special
I try to be myself, you do the same, and we'll be alright, a-a-ight, a-a-ight
'Cause this pressure is really bringing me down, ah-ah-'own, ah-ah-'own
I wish I had the guts to start a conversation with someone (with someone)
Just be who I am, not care so much 'bout first impressions, ooh, ooh, hmm
'Cause I got a feeling that it could be great

Hmm, hmm, no, no, no, ay, ay
Pressure is really bringing me down, ey, hmm

'Cause this pressure is really bringing me down, ah-ah-'own, ah-ah-'own, hmm
