Release the Pressure
Leftfield feat. Earl Sixteen & Papa Dee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've got to stand and fight
In this creation
Vanity I know
Can't guide I alone

I'm searching to find
A love that lasts all time
I've just got to find
Peace and unity

(Release the pressure)

I've got to stand and fight
In this creation
Vanity I know
Can't guide I alone

I'm searching to find
A love that lasts all time
I've just got to find
Peace and unity

(Bruin-dah!)

Can you feel it?
Release the pressure!
Can you hear it?
Peace and unity.

(Release the pressure)

Build's got this to keep your funky dance sway (eh-heh)
Why your laws have left me
Out of the king and out of the rain
Transalt movement is takin' over





Am I inferior?
Wow.....you are!

The song is an anthem for those who want to break free from the constraints that society has placed on them, and to find a way to live freely and happily. The lyrics are also a reminder that we cannot rely on the superficial vanities of the world to guide us, but must search within ourselves to find true purpose and meaning.


Overall, the song is a powerful message of hope that encourages listeners to keep fighting for what they believe in, and to seek out love and unity in a world that can often be very divisive.
