Pressure

Pressure will either break you or that shit will make you stronger
Seebas on the track
Baby Montaigne Instrumentals

Rap music has a place for the hopeless and pain stricken
In this world it seems getting doe is the main mission
Politicians talk a lot but the poor know that they ain't listening
It's try hard, do or don't
I lined up for a student loan
People used to degrade me but I upgraded and graduated
Proved them wrong
When I was younger, I didn't know
Puffin' a little drough
Would make my hustle more difficult
Got minor wages but not stuck with the minimum
Minor pay leads to major hassle
I grappled
But the fact I didn't give up is a feat that they can't fathom
I respect haters, they gave me persistence
Can't stand the rest pain of a missed chance
So, I rather take chances
With the stakes high like a Russian roulette player going the distance

How do you live in a world that's broken
Sometimes it's best to leave the words unspoken
How do you breathe, when it feels like chokin'
Received life's gifts I can't leave unopened
So, I double shift until I feel like dozin'
They pay me no mind but I feel I'm chosen
I feel I'm chosen

Switched off the news, too much stressing from the terror
Social media put pressure on a fella
To vent I had hell of a get togethers
With chicks, asses soft as feathers
Couldn't figure out a way to live happily together
Now I stack up some cheddar
I get less for my effort
That's the fact of the matter
I'm apt to do better
And bring the ruckus
If you wanna live life right you gotta take some large risks
It ain't fair like gettin' hit by large bricks
They smile when you're down and hit record like sick reporters
Misinforming
My view of success is distorted
Had regret inside my heart and every single organ
With the pressure buildin'
Grindin' but the return seems to be never yielding
That's a feeling
I know too well
But when you're all in it
No effort's in vain when you put your heart in it
No effort's in vain when you put your heart in it

Lots of detours on life's map, looking for the effortless ways
Look at what pressure can make
I've been through pain and agony and was never the same
A lot of sorrow and tears
Almost checked out, with no coroner here
Saw the light at the end of the corridor beam
With a peak at heaven in my dreams
Hope half of what I've seen
Lives up to the real deal
But it actually doesn't feel real
Every day's a gift and a curse
No one knows when it's time to chill in a hearse
Let down six feet deep in the dirt
I appreciate more
Of what I'm given and see what's in store
See the better days this life has to offer
Showin' love, ignorin' the spite from the mockers

How do you live in a world that's broken
Sometimes it's best to leave the words unspoken
How do you breathe, when it feels like chokin'
Received life's gifts I can't leave unopened
So, I double shift until I feel like dozin'
They pay me no mind but I feel I'm chosen
I feel I'm chosen

When things ain't goin well, you're overwhelmed then take a break from it all
Recover your stance when you fall
I figured out the man I wanna be
Rien ne va plus, bets on my friends, to form a team
With the odds against us about as bad as it's ever gon' be
I might never be filthy with riches
But my rap layers are flows with precision
Used to have cassette players runnin' to listen
CD decks and a bulge from a discman
Used to watch Kobe and Shaq play and go against the Pistons
Been called wack, hate's an assistance
Cause they brought anger and motivation for decades into existence
Lemme remind you
I can't stand the rest pain of a missed chance
So, I rather take chances
With the stakes high like a Russian roulette player going the distance

How do you live in a world that's broken
Sometimes it's best to leave the words unspoken
How do you breathe, when it feels like chokin'
Received lifes's gifts I can't leave unopened
So, I double shift until I feel like dozin'
They pay me no mind but I feel I'm chosen
I feel I'm chosen

Grindin'
Grindin'
But the return seems to be never yielding
It's fine to reminisce
But I can't get stuck tryin to relive it
My styles are limitless
I'm a diamond in this bitch
When things ain't going well
The pressure building
Grindin'
When things ain't goin well, you're overwhelmed then take a break from it all
Recover your stance when you fall
When you're all in it
No effort's in vain when you put your heart in it
No effort's in vain when you put your heart in it
