(Beat: Heavy, distorted 808s, sharp snare, fast-paced hi-hats, minor key piano melody) (Intro) Yeah. You thought it was over, huh? That’s cute. They tried to bury me, but they forgot I’m a seed. Check it. (Verse 1) They left me in the basement, dark, cold, and lonely Tried to cut my wings, yeah, they wanted to control me Bet against the queen, put a price upon my crown Didn't know the gravity, I’m holdin' down the ground I took the trauma and I forged it into steel I don’t talk about the struggle, I just show you how it feel Every tear I shed dried up into a diamond I’m steady climbin', yeah, the rhythm is the alignment They wanted me to break, wanted me to fold I just turned the pressure into 24-karat gold. (Chorus) He turned my pain into pressure Now I’m stacking up this treasure Heavyweight champion, check the measurement I’m the only one here worth the betterment Pressure makes diamonds, I’m shining too bright I’m the storm, I’m the thunder, I’m the middle of the night They tried to quiet the wave, now I’m the whole damn ocean I’m the motion, baby, look at the devotion! (Verse 2) See, the hurt was the fuel, every scar was a lesson Now I’m countin' up blessings, leave 'em all in suggestion I remember nights I couldn't see past the wall Now I’m standing on the top, watching everyone fall Nah, not fall—stumble, tryin' to catch the vibe I’m the chief, I’m the leader of a brand new tribe Radios popping, yeah, the speakers gonna blow From the bottom of the pit to the center of the show I’m a beast, I’m a glitch in the system they built Got no room for the shame, got no room for the guilt Just the pressure, baby, turn it up to the max I’m the truth, I’m the fire, yeah, I’m stating the facts. (Outro) Yeah. Pressure. That’s all it ever was. Just keep applying it. Watch how fast I turn into something you can’t ignore. Radio rotation. Checkmate. (Beat cuts out with a sharp bass drop)
