Pressure on the pavement
I still keep my name
Rent due, phone cracked,
rain in my shoes Mama said breathe,
but the clock don't move Corner store glare when the money runs
thin I count every step like a debt coming in
Friends got plans, some plans got teeth I keep my head low
when they test my peace Hands stay clean though the night gets
rough Street pressure talks,
but it don't own us
They want me bent,
want me bitter
Want my spark sold cheap
But I learned from broken windows
How to let the cold air leave
Street pressure, heavy on my chest
I won't fold, I just take one step
If the road gets loud,
let it call my bluff
Street pressure talks, but it don't own us
No, it don't own us
Sirens pass, I don't chase that sound Learned which smiles turn a
good heart down Bills stack tall,
but my back stands straight I got one small room and a
bigger faith
Somebody said run where the easy cash grows I said my little
brother watches everything I chose So I move with care when the
block gets tough Street pressure talks,
but it don't own us
Street pressure, heavy on my chest
I won't fold, I just take one step
If the road gets loud,
let it call my bluff
Street pressure talks, but it don't own us
No, it don't own us
I know the weight by name
I know the doors that close
But every scar on my palms
Says I still chose hope (yeah)
Street pressure, heavy on my chest
I won't fold, I just take one step
If the road gets loud,
let it call my bluff
Street pressure talks, but it don't own us
No, it don't own us
No, it don't own us
It don't own us
