Kanye West
Pressure (Demo)
[Intro: John Ortiz & Bradley Cooper]
Ch-ch-ch-ch-check this out, we just redid the whole thing
Ow, haha, tremendous, isn't it great? Tremendous
Yeah man, I-I'm thinking of redoing it again
Why? Haha
Because I'm making an upgrade (You're making a lot of paper to do that)
Yeah, we're doing alright, man, I can't complain
Isn't the market down though?
It is down, well, but you know, she wants more, so I'm giving her more, man
But the pressure, man, it's like
You okay?
I'm not okay, don't tell anybody
Listen to me, I feel like I'm getting crushed and—
Crushed by what?
Everything, the family, the baby, the job, thе fuckin' dicks at work
And it's like, you know, like, I'm trying to do this, you know, and- and- and then- thеn I'm, like, suffocating
Holy shit
You can't be happy all the time
Who told you you can't be happy?
It's alright, you just do your best, you have no choice
That's not true at all
You just, you just can't
Ronnie, Ronnie, Ronnie

[Chorus: Kanye West & Marvin Gaye]
(Be a-) You be? (Be a-), Can you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be a-), Can you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be a-), Will you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be afraid), Can you be? (Be afraid)
(Be a-) You be? (Be a-), Can you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be a-), Can you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be a-), Will you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be afraid), Can you be? (Be afraid)
(Be a-) You be? (Be a-), Can you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be a-), Can you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be a-), Will you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be afraid), Can you be? (Be afraid)
[Bridge: Kanye West]
I got that lost of fun from my lap
I got that blunt, I can't get that back
Stole my love, stole my hope, stole my head
Don't have this, don't have, I'm done for month

[Chorus: Kanye West & Marvin Gaye]
(Be a-) You be? (Be a-), Can you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be a-), Can you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be a-), Will you be? (Be a-)
Can you be? (Be afrai—)

[Interlude: Keith Hudson]
Get off me on, get off me on, get off me on , get off me on
Get off me on, get off me on , get off me on , get off me on
Get—

[Verse: Kanye West]
I caught a wave
Caught more air than Super Dave
Call Aaliyah, I'm super paid
Jet-laggin', tryna recuperate
Just got off the flight from Budapest
Don't need Khaled to say "You the best"
You the type of n***a shop at Uniqlo
Just found out that my father-in-law unisex
Running out of money, running into debt
Running from bill collectors, I ain't paid them yet
Shit you deal with no matter how rich you get
And even more, dependin' on the bitch you get
And I ain't got the free time no more
This dick ain't promotional
They say I'm antisocial
She textin' mad face over and over, yo
I say, "Why you gettin' so damn emoji-nal?", Uh
I ain't gotta talk about how stressed I am
I'm going crazy as Jesus, I'm going Bethle-HAM
N***as say somethin' 'bout it, thought so
You can't say nothin' 'bout it, also
This room too fuckin' crowded, cutthroat
Some when I'm up and out it, although
I can see you crawlin' through the interest
I can see your agendas and your intent
But it ain't really gotta be that intense
Gon' ahead, meditate, light some incense
I'm up late, 4AM, overseas, in the bed like
"Damn, I done finally reached the end of the Internet"
[Outro: Marvin Gaye]
Be a-be a—
Be a-be a—
Be a-be a—
Be afraid, be afraid
Be a-be a—
Be a-be a—
Be a-be a—
Be afraid, be afraid
