Pressure
What is it that you're under?
Life is beautiful
Yet you make it roar ?? like thunder
Trying to get through this journey
Trying to make a change
Somehow things still feel the same
Its strange
How you'll spend your whole life
Trying to impress
Unsure ?? of your purpose
Thinking did I really deserve this
Pressure
Lets break it down
Treating yourself unworthy
When we all deserve our crown
Being put down
Without having the will power to get back up
Lying in a state of comfortbility
Not realizing you were stuck
Yep that's us
We as human beings
Lacking alot
So confused
But God never forgot
Pressure through our peers
Did more trying to be accepted
It brings you to tears
All these years
And then you finally develop into your own
Now realizing that the only approval you need
Is the one on the throne
Pressure of trying to be of the world
Yes that's us
Putting up a big ole fuss
Over unnecessary stuff
That we can't control
Pressure of being afraid
Knowing that if you're not like others
Sometimes friends will trade
Yes they will
We may experience hurt
But we have to learn to forgive
And just live
Pressure to belong
In an unfit song
The words just don't mix
Time for revision
Have to do it quick
Practicing a new step
To follow
Even when your not content on which direction to go
Go with the flow
Pressure in relationships
That don't belong
That are old
Still holding on
When you know your past life
Is renewed the old you is gone
Pressure is surely what you make it
You can overcome it
You can face it
Being under it doesn't make you feel any lesser
These are my thoughts
No Pressure
