Pressure – Raxstar Lyrics

Not everybody gets it

Not everybody will understand

But I know how it feels

Believe me I do.. yeh

There’s so much pressure to get married

And if you ain’t

They look at your age and ask you what will people say

Like I should be ashamed for tryna find the right one

Is this karma for all the bad things that I’ve done?

Don’t I deserve to be happy?

My careers going well but they just see

a failure when they’re looking at me

Like success don’t mean a thing

Until you got a wedding ring

Until that’s done, then how can your life really begin?

Believe me I thought I’d be settled down by now

Thought my Dad would still be around by now

Thought “the One” I would’ve found by now

Thought I’ve have some rugrats running round by now

But no

All of my intentions are good

But not to everyone around me

And I would’ve pleased you if I could

But you don’t understand this road that I take

All of these excuses I’m making

So I had to write a song for you

To let you know, to let you know

There’s so much pressure to be happy

And if you ain’t

In this social media age there’s no reason to complain

People will do anything for just a little fame

We don’t want to be forgotten please remember my name

I’ve been tryna find balance, addicted to my phone

I just want to feel connected I’ve been feeling so alone

I’ve been feeling so confused and deflated

We’ve all got a definition of what it means to make it

I just want to be made

I just want to be great

I just want to be loved

I give more than I take

I just want to be as selfless as my Dad was

I’ve been feeling helpless without my Dad’s love

All of my intentions are good

But not to everyone around me

And I would’ve pleased you if I could

But you don’t understand this road that I take

All of these excuses I’m making

So I had to write a song for you

To let you know, to let you know

I don’t want to tell nobody what I dream of

No-one wants to die, everybody wants to see God

I always feel like I don’t belong

Voice in my head telling me that I should speak up

How can you say you’re scared

When you can look in the mirror and see greatness there

The ashes of your past

The passion and the scars

The magic and the laughs

Live within your battered heart

All of my intentions are good

But not to everyone around me

And I would’ve pleased you if I could

But you don’t understand this road that I take

All of these excuses I’m making

So I had to write a song for you

To let you know, to let you know
