Additional information

Lyrics

I'm trapped and my back is up against the wall

I see no solution or exit out I'm grinding it, no one can see me The pressure is going up exponetially

I'm trying to keep up to speed with you Your game changing is oscillating me I'm hitting the ground and sprinting I'm falling behind now, I'm checking out

Pressure building Pressure building Don't push me Don't push me Let me get off the ground To you I'm no longer bound Don't stop me, don't choke me

I need you out of my head You got me close to the edge I'm feeling the pressure I can't break out

No one can hear me scream and shout Get out of my face, out of my mind I see your corruption I'm not blind I'll carry the burden and take the strain And when I'm done I'll make you pay

Pressure building Don't push me Don't push me Let me off the ground To you I'm no longer bound

Don't cut me Don't thwart me I need you out of my head You got me close to the edge
