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 to the song "Pressure" by Nadia Ali, Starkillers, and Alex Kenji (Zomboy Remix) tells the story of a person who is overwhelmed with the demands and expectations placed upon them. The first verse talks about feeling the pressure and being in deep, with everyone wanting something from them. The singer then compares themselves to a lover turned thief, which could mean that they are taking something from others to stay afloat or survive. The chorus repeats the phrases "So much pressure, so much heat, so much hustle, they want me," emphasizing the feeling of being overwhelmed and burdened by others' expectations.
The second half of the song switches gears to focus on a relationship with another person. The lyrics talk about how the other person's sound or presence fills the singer up but also brings them down. The repetition of "Come around, feel the sound, oh you make my heart pound" shows the intensity of this relationship and how it affects the singer.

Saya mendapat tekanan, saya sangat dalam
Sepertinya semua orang menginginkan sesuatu dariku
Saya adalah seorang kekasih, tetapi sekarang seorang pencuri
Aku akan mengambil napasmu dan membebaskanmu
[Menahan diri: Nadia Ali]
Begitu banyak tekanan
Begitu banyak panas
Begitu banyak hiruk pikuk
Mereka menginginkan saya
