Putting Up Resistance - Feat. U-Roy
Pressure, pressure.
Pressure.
No I never can understand it,
The way the system plan, (pressure)
There's no hope, no chance, no loophole,
No escape for a suffering man,
'Cause every time I lift my head above water,
And try to save myself from drown,
There's an overnight scheme all worked out,
Designed to keep ah me down.
Still I'm,
Putting up a resistance,
I'm ah gonna work it out,
You know I'm,
Putting up a resistance,
I've got to work it out.
Blow wind blow, blow wind blow,
I want to stay home tonight,
I long to spend some time with the family,
But staying home won't make it right,
Sometimes the pressure make me feel like bawling,
When every sign says no way out,
Breaking my back to make an overtime dollar,
That just goes from hand to mouth.
Still I'm,
Putting up a resistance,
I'm gonna work it out,
You know I'm,
Putting up a resistance, now,
I've got to work it out,
Lord I'm,
Putting up resistance,
I'm ah gonna work it out,
You know I'm,
Putting up resistance,
I'm gonna work it out, Lord!
Got to fight it.
Got to fight it.
No I never can understand it,
The way the system goes, (pressure)
I don't know how they do it,
There's only one way things flow,
'Cause every time I lift my head above water,
And try to save myself from drown,
There's an overnight scheme all worked out,
Designed to keep ah me down.
Still I'm,
I'm putting up a resistance, yeah,
I've got to work it out,
You know I'm,
I'm putting up a resistance,
I'm gonna work it out, wow,
Putting up a resistance.
I'm gonna work it out, now.
Putting up a resistance,
I'm gonna work it out.
Blow wind blow, blow wind blow,
Wanna stay home tonight,
Like to spend some time with family,
Staying home won't make it right,
Sometimes the pressure make me feel like bawling,
When every sign says no way out,
Breaking my back to make an overnight dollar,
That goes from man to mouth,
Still I'm,
Putting up a resistance, now, now,
I'm gonna work it out,
You know I'm,
Putting up a resistance,
I'm gonna work it out,
I'm. putting up a resistance,
I'm gonna work it out,
You know I'm,
Putting up a resistance,
Got to work it out, you know I, (pressure)
Putting up a resistance,(pressure)
Got to fight
Pressure.
