Pressure
Alex Kenji And Starkillers Feat Nadia Ali Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Seems everybody wants something from me
I was a lover, but now a thief
I'll take your breath away and set you free
So much pressure
So much heat
So much hustle
So much pressure
So much heat
So much hustle
They want me
Come around, feel the sound
Oh you make my heart pound
Fill me up, bring me down
When I hear your sound
Come around, feel the sound
Oh you make my heart pound
Fill me up, bring me down
When I hear your sound
Come around, feel the sound
Oh you make my heart pound
Fill me up, bring me down
When I hear your sound
Come around, feel the sound
Oh you make my heart pound
Fill me up, bring me down
When I hear your sound
Come around, feel the sound
Oh you make my heart pound
Fill me up, bring me down
When I hear your sound
Come around, feel the sound
Oh you make my heart pound
Fill me up, bring me down
When I hear your sound
The lyrics of Pressure by Alex Kenji, Nadia Ali, and Starkillers are quite poetic and intriguing. The song seems to be about the challenges and demands of fame and success, as expressed in the lines "I've got pressure, I'm in deep, seems everybody wants something from me." The singer feels overwhelmed and weighed down by the pressure, heat, and hustle that come with their position, but they also seem to be motivated by it, as indicated by the repetition of "they want me."
The lyrics also suggest some kind of personal transformation, as the singer claims to have gone from being a lover to a thief who will "take your breath away and set you free." This could be interpreted in various ways, but it seems to imply a kind of boldness or ruthlessness that the singer has adopted in response to their circumstances.
The chorus of the song is quite repetitive, with the same lines repeated several times: "Come around, feel the sound, oh you make my heart pound, fill me up, bring me down, when I hear your sound." This repetition gives the song a hypnotic quality that reinforces the idea of being caught up in a demanding and relentless lifestyle.
