Pressure

(album: Sizzla Selects Reggae - 2019)

Only you whey a black (check it)

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

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

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...

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
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

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

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...

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

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

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...

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

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
