Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pressure's on, yeah, it's hot
Tell you the story of have not
Where you don't know what you don't got
Till you need it
Scrambling for that dough, boy
But everybody's alright
We're all alright
[Verse 2]
I need to catch a break now
I gotta make a way somehow
Oh, I, I gotta figure it out
Oh, help me, Lord
[Verse 3]
I'll take you to a city where the budget is tight
And you can pay your car note or you can keep on your lights
She chose the latter, gotta wake up early at five
Ride three buses for an hour to a job she don't like, and she's tired
This shit ain't right
This can't be life, but she's alright
Alright
[Verse 4]
I'll walk you through a neighborhood where children survive
Ain't got no daddy at home and mom be working at night
Look up to homie round the corner, he's living the life
You can be a baller too if you just slang a few dimes, so you try
That gangster life
Too young to die
But he's alright
Alright
[Verse 5]
We need to catch a break now
Gotta make a way somehow
Oh, I, I gotta figure it out
Oh, help me, Lord
[Verse 6]
Walk you through a neighborhood where teenagers die
Just walking home from the store, he gotta run for his life
Police department something like a lynch mob of lies
Where the murderers are freed after the innocent die, so we fight
5-0 at night
Tear gas in flight, but we're alright
Alright
[Verse 7]
Now I'm a young sister of color, in the prime of my life
Somehow I found my way home, the walls cave in late at night
Just wanna be alone so I can exhale and write
Finding solace on the balcony beneath the moonlight as I write
I'm free behind the margin line
So, I'm alright
Alright
[Verse 8]
I need to catch a break now
Gotta make a way somehow
Oh, I gotta figure it out
Oh, help me, Lord
[Verse 9]
When the world's a place where stars are far
The lights go off
Say it's gonna be alright (Alright)
Now when the world's a place where stars are far
The lights go off
Say it's gonna be alright (Alright)
[Verse 10]
The pressure's on, yeah, it's hot
Tell you the story of have not
Where you don't know what you don't got
Till you need it
Yeah, the pressure's on and it's hot
Tell you the story of have not
Where you don't know what you don't got
Till you need it
