Lyrics
0:20If you don't know what to say then keep your
0:22Mouth shut out the way
0:24You'll get no flattery
0:29If you know the time of day
0:31Then why you let yourself go grey
0:33You need a battery
0:38'Cause every moment counts as the watchdog wants to pounce
0:42But he ain't smart as me
0:46With the bible on his lips and a pistol on
0:50Each hip
0:51But he ain't blinding me
0:55So just remember don't believe all you see
0:58Things ain't always how they meant to be
1:00Some come as villain dressed as virtue
1:03But all they really wanna do is hurt you and
1:04That's reality
1:09We gotta keep it up keep it up keep up
1:11The pressure
1:13We gotta keep it up keep it up keep up
1:16The pressure
1:18We gotta keep it up keep it up keep up
1:20The pressure
1:22We gonna keep it up keep it up keep up
1:25The pressure
1:31So when it feels like I slip n slide I
1:34Treat each day as a brand new ride and let
1:36It all come down on me
1:40You could be north you could be east
1:42You could be beauty you could be beast
1:45It don't mean a thing to me
1:49You could be moving you could be still
1:51As long as it's of your own free will
1:54Don't be a target see
1:58We'll save our souls saints preserve us
2:00Hold on tight now and don't get nervous
2:03Bring it on quick before the light fade
2:05Dearly beloved comin' out of the shade
2:07First you act like you don't know me and all
2:10You seem to care about is money
2:11And every day it seems to get harder
2:14I don't know how we're gonna reach our father
2:16We gotta keep it up keep it up keep up
2:18The pressure
2:20We gotta keep it up keep it up keep up
2:23The pressure
2:25We gotta keep it up keep it up keep up
2:27The pressure
2:29We gonna keep it up keep it up keep up
2:32The pressure
2:52Don't tell me what to do
2:54Don't tell me how to live my life
2:57I won't respond to you
3:01You may have my rank have my file but I'll
3:04Resist you like the nile
3:05Don't matter what you do
3:10I'm gonna keep it up keep it up keep it
3:13Up keep it up
3:14I'm gotta keep it up keep it up keep it
3:17Up keep it up
3:19I'm gotta keep it up keep it up keep it
3:21Up keep it up
3:23I'm gotta keep it up keep it up keep it
3:26Up keep it up
3:28I'm gotta keep it up keep it up keep up
3:30The pressure keep it up
3:32I'm gotta keep it up keep it up keep up
3:35The pressure keep it up
3:37I'm gotta keep it up keep it up keep up
3:39The pressure keep it up
3:41I'm gotta keep it up keep it up keep it
3:44Up keep it up keep it up
