Under Pressure
Since99 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don'tSleep wake your ass up

Yeah, I always perform under pressure
She rubbin' the fabric
In love with the texture
The shit wasn't shinin'
We pulled out the tester
Callin' the shots like I'm Lester
Twenty-five letters and they on my dresser
Twenty-five bitches, let's get them together
I stepped out the spot and
I'm changin' the weather
I'm changin' the weather
Like it's global warming
Haven't gotten excited
This shit gettin' boring
Finna hop on a PJ and get to exploring
If the bubbles are green when you text
I'm ignorin'
Deleted her number and got in my duffy
Took a look at the money
And I'm sayin' lovely
This bitch think I'm stupid
What you tryna dub me?
Fucked a thot with the headband on
Jared Dudley

Three-five in the blunt
Filled up with Big Buddha Cheese
Rest in peace, Capital STEEZ
I took a tab, now I be speakin' to trees
Doin' this rap shit with ease
Under pressure, I'm a beast
Fourth quarter, I'ma eat
Clutch shooter, take a seat
Hall of Fame, difficult shots
If they need a bucket, they pass it to me
I'm the number one option, the media talkin'
Sharp Take on, keep a 223
The scouts they be watchin'
I do this shit often
In a league of my own, need an MVP
The ho's steady flockin'
You know how I'm rockin'
Everywhere I go, they just wanna see me
We schemin' and plottin'
Ain't talkin' Ty Lawson
Yeah my highlight tape on a DVD, bitch

Yeah, I always perform under pressure
She rubbin' the fabric
In love with the texture
The shit wasn't shinin'
We pulled out the tester
Callin' the shots like I'm Lester
Twenty-five letters and they on my dresser
Twenty-five bitches, let's get them together
I stepped out the spot and
I'm changin' the weather
I'm changin' the weather
Like it's global warming
Haven't gotten excited
This shit gettin' boring
Finna hop on a PJ and get to exploring
If the bubbles are green when you text
I'm ignorin'
Deleted her number and got in my duffy
Took a look at the money
And I'm sayin' lovely
This bitch think I'm stupid
What you tryna dub me?
Fucked a thot with the headband on
Jared Dudley

In the studio and nothin' else
Matters but the music
Like, you got this love for it
It's somethin' that you think about when
You sleep and you dream and
You wake up and you breathe it
And you wanna live it
There's so many options
There's many ways to blow up
There's many ways to be known and to




Get success and to be successful
It's just about pickin' that way that fit you
