Pressure - Stereo MC's

If you don’t know what to say then keep your mouth shut, out the way

You’ll get no flattery

If you know the time of day

Then why you let yourself go grey?

You need a battery

'Cause every moment counts as the watchdog wants to pounce

But he ain’t smart as me With the bible on his lips and a pistol on each hip

But he ain’t blinding me So just remember, don’t believe all you see

Things ain’t always how they meant to be Some come as villain, dressed as virtue

But all they really wanna do is hurt you and that’s reality

We gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure

We gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure

We gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure

We gonna keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure

So when it feels like I slip «n"slide, I treat each day as a brand new ride and

let it all come down on me You could be north, you could be east

You could be beauty, you could be beast

It don’t mean a thing to me You could be moving, you could be still

As long as it’s of your own free will

Don’t be a target, see

We’ll save our souls, saints preserve us Hold on tight now and don’t get nervous

Bring it on quick before the light fade

Dearly beloved comin' out of the shade

First you act like you don’t know me and all you seem to care about is money

And every day it seems to get harder

I don’t know how we’re gonna reach our father

We gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure

We gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure

We gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure

We gonna keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure

Don’t tell me what to do Don’t tell me how to live my life

I won’t respond to you

You may have my rank, have my file but I’ll resist you like the Nile

Don’t matter what you do

I’m gonna keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up

I’m gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up

I’m gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up

I’m gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up

I’m gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure, keep it up

I’m gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure, keep it up

I’m gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep up the pressure, keep it up

I’m gotta keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up
