"Pressure" lyrics

"Pressure"

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of this life
I fear no one but myself
I fear no one but myself

Wake at dawn, step out onto the pavement
Watch the light descend upon the darkness
Making sure the world will live another day
A wilderness, they tell you on the TV
A wilderness, they got you on your knees
But not for God and not to pray

So when it comes for you to testify
Do you speak the truth or tell me a new lie?
All that I want is some dignity
But all my love keeps testing me

And on and on, I just keep on going
On and on, I just keep on going
I don't know how I'm gonna take the pressure
The pressure
How I'm gonna live like that?
Give me all your tickets
Carry all my baggage
The pressure, pressure, pressure
How I'm gonna live like that?
Give me all your tickets
Give me all your tickets
The pressure, pressure, pressure

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of this life
I fear no one but myself
I fear no one but myself

Who can you love and who do you trust?
From ashes to ashes, dust unto dust
You come here alone, you leave here alone
In the blink of a moment, it's all that you've known

So when it comes for you to testify
Do you speak the truth or tell me a new lie?
All you want is some dignity
But all my love keeps testing me

And on and on, I just keep on going
On and on, I just keep on going
I don't know how I'm gonna take the pressure
The pressure
How I'm gonna live like that?
Give me all your tickets
Carry all my baggage
The pressure, pressure, pressure
How I'm gonna live like that?
Give me all your tickets
Give me all your tickets
The pressure, pressure, pressure

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

You gotta do what gets you through, gets you through, gets you through
Gotta do what gets you through, gets you through, gets you through
You gotta do what gets you through, gets you through, gets you through
The pressure, pressure, pressure
Pressure, pressure, pressure
Pressure, pressure, pressure
Pressure, pressure, pressure
The pressure, pressure, pressure
Pressure, pressure, pressure
The pressure, pressure, pressure (gets you through, gets you through, gets you through)
Pressure, pressure, pressure
Pressure, pressure, pressure
Pressure, pressure, pressure
