Letra

...Not the real Will Smith
He's a character
It all began in the West, now I live in the East
I'll seal the sun to my chest 'til the day that I'm deceased
Each one, teach one, prepare for the feast
Got my gun and a vest and last rites from a priest
That'll be the day, that'll be the day I die
The pressure is on, to say those last goodbyes
'Cause you and I, fool, we got the same destination
But our use of the tools affects its consummation
Gotta get off the couch and get my life movin'
Not a Grinch or a grouch, that's a lifetime of losin'
Grim Reaper is a creep who all got an appointment
To lay back, become sleepers and swallow the ointment
'Til that final day, I'll be holding nothing back
All the way to the front, all the way to the attack
I might make a mess but go home and get clean
Never acquiesce until I turn in my lean
Throw your hands to the sky, when you ask why
Every man's born as one and as one he dies
Into the wind, and then you're gone
The pressure is on, the pressure is on
All this time you would've questioned my allegiance
Like leaving indecent legions in need of a seedling
You are the anti-hero, equipped with low ceilings
That leave us both feeling under pressure with no breathing
We keep dreaming, but we up against sleep demons
Who keep creeping, the lone gunman with a piece pleading
My teeth steep in these feet that feed treason
I seek for deep reason, my Jesus piece gleaming
I'll leave my people peeping the salt of the earth seasoning
With feeble attempts weakened, we need to feed the healing
We need to keep meeting 'cause love is like a rod that I'm reeling
Somebody sloppily leaving, pop rock and Doppler's sweet and
I spend a lot of these evenings, some sort of lottery dealing
Where they charge me for being, an antithesis of appeasement
But I'm not trying to please them, or seize them
Throw your hands to the sky, when you ask why
Every man's born as one and as one he dies
Into the wind, and then you're gone
The pressure is on, the pressure is on
First day of school I played it cool, friends I made a few
Hated a couple people too but I can't stay in a bubble, true
So I avoided cliques like a dolphin in a stew (blame it)
Witnessing the birth, of my first child
In awe of my wife and this tiny girl's smile (blame it)
Four more babies, still, no more ladies
Standing firm in my convictions, you're such a good Christian
First child is with child, man, this is wild
Just a few hours back, I saw her first smile
Now she's out there in the dark world to
Prepare for the coming miles (blame it)
Being proud that I never cheated on her's
Like being proud that I never beat her
Really? Those are my accomplishments? Sounds like basic common sense
Instead I regret the time spent, traveling all over
Should've been finding time to hold her
Comfort her and rub her head (blame it)
A widower, alone, hurt, grown and insecure
Never more unsure, wondering why she had to go
Didn't she know that all my time away
Would be made up for, once we'd gone gray
And bald, wearing Depends, wrinkly, thin, etcetera
Throw your hands to the sky, when you ask why
Every man's born as one and as one he dies
Into the wind, and then you're gone
The pressure is on, the pressure is on
Throw your hands to the sky, when you ask why
Every man's born as one and as one he dies
Into the wind, and then you're gone
The pressure is on, the pressure is on
