Exstatic - Level-headed

Copied!

Verse
Age ain't nothing but a number
I'm only 23 but look at the shit I've seen
The things I've put my body through, just to cope with the dream
Taking drugs, party hard, and always been taking risks
I'm glad I did though
Imagine going in life without knowing the danger of drugs, till your life is over
Imagine going in life without knowing that heart breaks can ruin your composure when it's over
You gon understand you needed her more than an army needs it's Soldiers
But that's a story for when it's over
That's why I'm grateful for the experience
The tough things, that nobody teaches in school, experiеnce
I'm proud that my dad showed me thе ropes
And guided me through the experience
He still guides me through the growing experience
Oh man what a privilege
I know he make some things really uncomfortable
But he says never be satisfied with the comfortable

Bridge
Pressure pressure pressure pressure pressure

Verse
But look at this I'm stuck between "
I'm still young" or "I need to get it now"
"I should be having fun" or " my future depends on me now"
"I should get myself a watch" or "I should save up more now"
"Should I buy more rounds" " should I buy groceries for my mum"
"Should I go clubbing" or "maybe I should study for this exam"
"I should love my siblings more" or "they know that now"
"I should look out for my bro's" or " or I should take a bow, close curtains, let it ride"
It's really easy when you see it from the side
When you busy pointing fingers, when it ain't your time
Life gon smack you head if you keep joking around
You gon notice time moving fast, and you still the same old clown
But the pressure gon be there, and where's a will there's a way
Make the most out of the shit you learn, at every turn
Youngin make mistakes and don't do that shit again
Life is what you make, so make the most of shit and stay
Pre bridge
Am certain I'm learning to trust my gut
Fill my mind with positive thoughts cause I love
Trying stack my bucks tall like giannis, when I'm in the cut
These beats know when I hear them, that the jig is up
Teach my heart to love, and train my mind to balance it out
Need to know when to say yes, no to bullshit and call it out
It's a evil world we live in and , there's so much clout
I just hope I make it out, of this evil drought

Hook
I got pressure on my mind yeah
Pressure everywer yeah
Prossure overloadin

Pressure in the streets yeah
Pressur from the main one
Pressure from everything

Pressure

I got pressure on my mind yeah
Pressure everywer yeah
Prossure overloadin
Pressure in the streets yeah
Pressur from the main one
Pressure from everything
