If you don't know what to say
Then keep your mouth shut out the way
You'll get no flattery
If you know the time of day
Then why'd you let yourself go gray
You need a battery
'Cause every moment counts
As the watchdog waits to pounce
But he ain't smart as me
With the Bible on his lips
And a pistol on each hip
But he ain't blindin' me
So just remember
Don't believe all you see
Things aren't always how they're meant to be
Some come as villain, dressed as virtue
But all they really wanna do is hurt you
And that's reality
Gotta keep it up, keep it up
Keep up the pressure
We gotta keep it up, keep it up
Keep up the pressure
We gotta keep it up, keep it up
Keep up the pressure
We're gonna keep it up, keep it up
Keep up the pressure
So when it feels like a sit 'n' slide
I treat each day as a brand new ride
Let it all come down on me
You could be north, you could be east
You could be beauty, you could be beast
It don't mean a thing to me
You could be movin', you could be still
As long as it's of your own free will
Don't be a target, see
Well save our souls, Saints preserve us
Hold on tight now, but don't get nervous
Bring it on quick before the light fade
There live a lover, comin' out the shade
At first you act like you don't know me
And all you seem to care about is mourning
And every day it seem to get harder
I don't know how we're gonna reach it farther
Gotta keep it up, keep it up
Keep up the pressure
We gotta keep it up, keep it up
Keep up the pressure
We gotta keep it up, keep it up
Keep up the pressure
We're gonna keep it up, keep it up
Keep up the pressure
Don't tell me what to do
Don't tell me how to live my life
I won't respond to you
You may have my rank, have my file
But I'll resist you like the Nile
Don't matter what you do
Gonna keep it up
Gotta keep it up
Keep up the pressure
