Under Pressure
R.D.M Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
I’ve been staring at the ceiling
I’ve been lookin at the wall
I don’t wanna travel life and let the whole world see me fall
Am I as lyrical as you think
Just put my words together you’ll see
I am not gonna be Desiigner and put up one good hit
Then tomorrow realize my that music ain’t shit
But I’m still under a rock
Everytime I spit some shit it’s like all of my friends wanna see me flop
They don’t want me at the top
Where you from deep in the slums
Only way you make it out is by the barrel of a gun
All I wanna do is rap go to a different place and have some fun
But lately I’ve been under stress
So I sat right down wrote this song under pressure
Smoke a blunt no more stress
Yeah I’m floatin to another’s level
I leveled up now on to another adventure let’s keep it up
They wanna see you fail
They wanna see me fall
M-Hunt, Lil T3ddy shootin for the stars
Don’t care about what you think
Don’t care about where you’re from
Don’t need no fuckin gun, I’ll beat yo ass for the fun
I’m pressing up on the elevator
I’m getting elevated smoke the greatest
I can smoke all of you fuckin haters
Lookin at me I’m the menace rhymes worth ten licks
Even if you could afford me you could never compete
Imma world class spitta with hittas that never hesitate to pull the trigger
I’ll leave your ass like a homicide when I murder the shit
You gone need a body bag to bury the shit
I’m pullin back charging handle I turned the safety off I’m spitten fact on fully automatic
I hope that you can dance when my choppa get to bustin ain’t no stoppin the shit
Imma keep on spraying till they empty the clip
I’m under pressure
Everyday I get better
Too much talent can’t measure
Going hard is my pleasure
This my story I'mma tell it
Been through a lot I must admit
Heart hit hard no full clip
Made it on top I’m the shit
I’m under pressure
Everyday I get better
Too much talent can’t measure
Going hard is my pleasure
This my story I'mma tell it
Been through a lot I must admit
Heart hit hard no full clip
Made it on top I’m the shit
I ain’t come from the hood but I’m still no good
Saw a lot shit that I never understood
My skin might be light but I face the same struggle
Had to watch my only brother in n out of trouble
My mom left my dad cause of the inner demons he had
He chose to do other things which made her sad
Grew up confused cause I had two mamas
Thankful my mom and stepmama had no drama
My brother was 17 when he had a kid
Thankful for my nephew cause now he livin big
It was freshman year when I lost my brother Dylan
Shit left me so cold you could call me a villain
I came out bi because I was molested
Went on for years by two people I trusted
I put my pen to paper and really started writing
This music helped with the demons I’ve been fighting
I aint broke but I been broke before
Almost committed because of a whore
All of my friends, they just walked out the door
Don’t act like you know me when I’m going on tour
They love to run they mouth and talk shit
Writing my name up on the walls and all that shit
But I’m high right now so maybe I did
Go figure motherfucker I’m a narcissist
Been one since my prime
I’m an optimist
We are not the same we opposites
You never back up what you say
So just stop this game
Cause you talk all the shit for the fame
I don't care bout money
I’d watch it all burn
Now isn’t that funny
Dye my hair auburn instead of blonde
Cause I never seen platinum
Wish one day I could for my album
I just hope that that’s the outcome
Sometimes I wanna quit way before I begin
Sometimes I regret even pickin’ up a pen
But I push myself
Like Spidey, pushed Gwen
Then I see my face all over the web
Making fun of me then I go talk to Ted
To keep my head up
Don’t matter what he said
Cause at the end of the day
I’m at my end
But I ain’t gon’ quit
I’ll never be controlled by some fuckin pricks
I rather a fat bitch suck my dick
And one last time for good measure
I don’t think I ever want you bitches
To not know
I ain’t foldin under pressure
Cause that’d be my mistake for sure
Gotta shit to prove, maybe forever
All the real ones
Let’s stick together
I’m under pressure
Everyday I get better
Too much talent can’t measure
Going hard is my pleasure
This my story I'mma tell it
Been through a lot I must admit
Heart hit hard no full clip
Made it on top I’m the shit
I’m under pressure
Everyday I get better
Too much talent can’t measure
Going hard is my pleasure
This my story I'mma tell it
Been through a lot I must admit
Heart hit hard no full clip
Made it on top I’m the shit
