Built From The Pressure

[Intro] Yeah I came too far to turn around Put everything I had into this now Let it hit Let it breathe This is everything they never thought I'd be [Verse 1] I got scars that I never put on display Had to fight through the nights just to make it to day Had a head full of dreams and a pocket of doubt Now I'm kicking down doors they kept locking me out I learned real quick who was real, who would fold Who would stand by my side when the weather turned cold I was down to my last, still I never went broke Had a fire in my chest that the rain never choked Every loss put a lesson deep under my skin Every time I got knocked down, I got up again They can talk, they can laugh, they can say what they please They don't know what it cost just to stand on my feet I ain't asking for permission to become who I am Put my heart in the work, put my soul in the plan If the world wants a reason I'm still standing tall Tell them I was built to rise every time I fall [Chorus] I was built from the pressure Made from the pain Walked through the fire Came out through the flames You can push me down But I won't stay there I got too much life And too much fight to spare I was built from the pressure Hear that heartbeat pound Everything I lost Couldn't keep me down Let the whole world watch Let them all find out I was born with a fire They can't put out [Verse 2] I got miles in my mind and a storm in my chest Never needed their approval to give it my best I have seen empty promises dressed up as gold And I've watched people change when the truth got told So I move with a purpose, keep my eyes on the road Carry weight on my shoulders that nobody knows I don't need every hand to be reaching for mine I can walk through the dark till I see my own light There were nights I was tired, almost ready to quit Had to look in the mirror and remember my grit I got people and dreams that depend on my drive So I turn every reason to give up into why Now the bass hits hard and the whole room shakes Every breath that I take is a chance I can take I ain't perfect, ain't finished, got a long way to go But there's one thing about me that the world needs to know [Chorus] I was built from the pressure Made from the pain Walked through the fire Came out through the flames You can push me down But I won't stay there I got too much life And too much fight to spare I was built from the pressure Hear that heartbeat pound Everything I lost Couldn't keep me down Let the whole world watch Let them all find out I was born with a fire They can't put out [Bridge] When the lights go low And the room gets quiet When the road gets rough I don't run from the fight Every breath I take Every step I make Is a promise to myself That I won't break [Final Chorus] I was built from the pressure Made from the pain Walked through the fire Came out through the flames You can push me down But I won't stay there I got too much life And too much fight to spare I was built from the pressure Now I'm standing proud I turned every setback Into something loud Let the whole world watch Let them all find out I was born with a fire They can't put out [Outro] Built from the pressure Raised by the fight Still got my soul Still got my life I came too far To turn around Built from the pressure I won't back down
