Under Pressure
Riley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Shit ain't been the same since you pulled up on me
You hold it down, you hold it down
You show up now, and unannounced (eh)
Justify my reasons why I like to pop
I should stop
She looked like the haters, maybe I'm in love
Maybe I pull up on her baby, maybe not
PreChorus 1: R I L E Y
What's love? What's lust?
I can't trust the bitch, you know I'm next up
Bust down her like water, gonna be a flood
Her mother still don't like me 'cause I'm fucked up
Under pressure, I've been under pressure
She's so extra, she want me to sex her
In a Tesla, fuckin' up the dash, yeah yeah
Fuck the passion, I'm just under pressure
Put my diamonds under pressure
Watch them drip for me
Told her that I love her once and now she'd kill for me
Under pressure, I've been under pressure
Fuck the passion, I'm just under pressure
I'll be honest
I got a problem
I'mma pop this oxy babe
I'll call you in the morning
Sit and watch, yuh
Watch the ice drip
She a sidekick
I don't need no side bitch
She left a call and I ain't call her back
She likes to smoke about a 40 grams
She came to me, she left that other man
She do it herself, she hold it down, she likes the dirty hands
Get high, take drugs
She don't wanna fuck, she wanna make love
Rollin' off the dope, got my brain stuck
I just hit one-fifty on the dash, try to catch up
Under pressure, I've been under pressure
She's so extra, she want me to sex her
In the Tesla, fuckin' up the dash, yuh yuh
Fuck depression, I've been under pressure
Put my diamonds under pressure, watch them drip for me
Told her that I loved her once and now she'd kill for me
Under pressure, I've been under pressure
Fuck depression, I'm so under pressure
In Riley's song Under Pressure, he speaks about the complexities of his romantic relationships and his struggle with addiction. He starts off by expressing how things have been complicated since his partner entered his life. She is always present, and he doesn't know if he likes her enough to keep her around. He's caught between his love for drugs and his desperation for intimacy. He contemplates why he likes to use drugs and whether he should stop. He believes his new partner might be feeling the same way he is about the relationship, and he is unsure about whether he can trust her.
Throughout the song, it is clear that Riley is struggling with many issues that he is trying to face. He tries to distract himself with sex, drugs, and driving fast but realizes that it's only a temporary escape from his problems. The chorus "Under pressure, I've been under pressure" is the repetition that refers to his emotional and mental turmoil. Overall, the lyrics of this song portray a deeply personal struggle with addiction, trust, and pressure.
