Tick-tock goes the neon clock
Pills in my pocket but the pain won’t stop
Another day, another dollar burnt to ash
Fighting ghosts in a world that moves too fast

Concrete jungle where the rats wear suits
Drownin’ in the noise of alarm bell truths
Ain’t no hero, just a broken machine
Grit my teeth and chase the light I’ve never seen

I bend but I won’t break
Even when the sky weighs a thousand tons
These hands keep clawing through the undertow
One breath. One more. One

I'm under pressure
But I’ll turn coal into diamonds
Yeah, they wrote my eulogy
But I'm still fighting!
Under pressure
Like a bullet in a slow-mo dream
Watch me rise from the wreckage
I'm still breathing!

Hey Siri, find me an exit route
Laugh it off but the walls are closing in
Sleepwalk through the 9-to-5 parade
While the devil tap-dances on my grave

Ain’t this the American scream?
Work my bones to dust for someone else’s dream
But I'm a wildfire in a matchstick town
They’ll need an ocean just to put me out

I’ve been a shadow
I’ve been a joke
I’ve been the smoke without the fire
But strike the match—
Watch me burn brighter!

Under pressure
I'm the crack in the system
The glitch in the matrix!
Under pressure
They said I’d be nothing
Now look at the damage!

The weight of the world’s just
Another thing I’ll carry
But I'm still here
Ain’t that a miracle?
