Pressure

STUDIO

[INTRO — FEMALE] *(soft, teasing, almost whispered)* You keep staring… Don’t pretend I don’t feel it. [MALE — LOW RESPONSE] I wasn’t hiding it. [FEMALE] Then come a little closer… *(distant female harmonies: “pressure… pressure…”)* [BEAT DROPS] [VERSE 1 — FEMALE → MALE] Female: Your hand on my waist Got me losing my sentence You came with that stare Now I'm caught in the presence I don't need a reason To feel what I feel Something about this moment Got a pull that's too real Male: You don't gotta hide it I can see it in your face Every time I come near you You forget about the space Female: Maybe that's the problem. Male: Maybe that's the point. [PRE-HOOK — FEMALE] Don't make me wait Don't make me wonder Your touch on my skin Got my guard going under I know what you're doing And I like what it does So come a little closer Let me give you enough [HOOK — BOTH] Female: Pressure... Pressure on me Male: You got that pressure... Female: Right where I wanna be Both: Pressure... Don't let it go Pull me in closer Then let me lose control Female: Pressure... Male: Pressure... Both: All over me Pressure... [HOOK — BOTH] Female: Pressure... Pressure on me [HOOK — BOTH] Female: Pressure... Pressure on me Male: You got that pressure... [VERSE 2 — MALE → FEMALE] Male: You got that little smile When you know you got me caught I was trying to keep my cool Now I'm giving you my thoughts The room keeps getting louder But I only hear your voice You don't have to ask me twice You already made the choice Female: I can feel your heartbeat Trying to match my pace You keep getting closer Like you wanna test your fate Male: Maybe I do. Female: Then don't be shy. Male: I wasn't planning to be. [AFRO GROOVE — BOTH] Female: Move your body with the drums Let the night become a memory Male: Your silhouette across the room Got me caught inside the scenery Female: Don't say nothing Just give me that look Male: You know exactly what you started. Female: And I know you want another. [BEAT SWITCH — DRUM & BASS] (everything drops except vocal, sub and distant ambience) Female: Wait... (rapid breakbeat slowly enters) Feel that? Male: Yeah. Female: Don't lose me. [DRUMS EXPLODE] Both: PRESSURE! [VERSE 3 — FEMALE → MALE] Female: Now the drums are running faster But your hands are moving slow Funny how the world can hurry While we barely let it go Your eyes keep telling stories That your mouth refuses to say So I'll give you one more minute Before I make you look my way Male: You got me caught between the music And the way you say my name Female: You could blame it on the speakers. Male: Nah... Female: Then what? Male: You. [BREAKDOWN — FEMALE] (deep ambient, soulful vocal stacks) Pressure on my skin... Pressure in the air... I can feel you... Even when you're not there... (echoing background vocals) “Pressure...” “On me...” “On me...” [FINAL GROOVE — BOTH] Male: Bring that bounce back. Female: Bring it back harder. [FINAL GROOVE — BOTH] Male: Bring that bounce back. Female: Bring it back harder. [FINAL GROOVE — BOTH] Male: Bring that bounce back. Female: Bring it back harder. [FINAL GROOVE — BOTH] Male: Bring that bounce back. Female: Bring it back harder. Male: One more time. Female: You know I'm ready. [FINAL GROOVE — BOTH] Male: Bring that bounce back. Female: Bring it back harder. Male: One more time. Female: You know I'm ready. [FINAL GROOVE — BOTH] Male: Bring that bounce back. Female: Bring it back harder. Male: One more time. Female: You know I'm ready. [FINAL GROOVE — BOTH] Male: Bring that bounce back. Female: Bring it back harder. Male: One more time. Female: You know I'm ready. [BEAT RETURNS — HEAVY AFRO-DEEP HOUSE BOUNCE] [FINAL HOOK — BOTH] Female: Pressure... Pressure on me Male: You got that pressure... Female: Right where I wanna be Both: Pressure... Don't let it go Pull me in closer Then let me lose control Female: Pressure... Male: Pressure... Both: All over me Pressure... Pressure... (rapid breakbeat slowly enters) Feel that? Male: Yeah. Female: Don't lose me. (soft, smiling) You feel that? Male: Yeah. Female: Good.
