Pressure - Sizzla Kalonji

You know better than I oh lord

What we say?

We know the pressure great but we ah brace

Cause ah so it go

We haffi strong to hold a space right down here so

They won’t love we as ourselves oh no

It’s a known fact say we come from the ghetto

We know the pressure great but we ah brace

Cause ah so it go

We haffi strong to hold a space right down here so

They won’t love me as myself oh no

It’s a known fact say me come from the ghetto

Nuff ah dem ah say how them genuine yet them no pure

Even though you see we so, we radical to the core

How better we fi look when you know say we poor?

When we all ah rise you all ah sink we even more

We this, nothing new, nothing nah hide

We no try false pretence we haffi show the true side

When I’m being myself, this is what I symbolize —

Life on a whole, so be wise

Well after you set all your traps tell me where do I stand?

Because where I’m at you say that’s where you belong

Living the past and the present, the future is at hand

Having know idea where the meal ah come (from)

It hurt us just the way you jump in

And the little lust… beans

Yo we sacrifice yet we rejoice there was life from the Supreme

Nuff of unnu up there so heart, it no clean

I say, if whichever way you turn, be stronger

That’s what I learn

If no one concerned 'bout life they never earn

Whether you’re weak or fit we haffi live

This is for all fools and the wise hearted
