Pressure in the Bass

[Intro – whispered patois and Spanish ad-libs, dark drill beat creeping in]
Low lights, bass line, heart cold, face stone
Mi seh “calma”, but the riddim drag me out my zone
Mami in the corner with the slow wine, deadly
Eyes on mine like “come test me, baby”

[Verse 1 – tight UK drill flow over moody 808s]
Step in the spot, whole room start shaking
Bass so mad, feel the floor ground breaking
Love no soft, it’s a war we’re making
Body on body, but the trust keeps breaking
She got fire in her waist, ice in her tone
Whisper in my ear that I’m never going home
But I know them lines, I’ve heard that script
Still I fall back in when her hips just dip
Pressure in my chest when the snare goes slap
Heart off beat, but the tune still mad
Every lick of the drum push me close to the edge
But her hand on my neck is the only real pledge

[Pre-Chorus – melodic drill hook, autotune touch]
Say you don’t love me, but you love this bass
Every time it drop, you come find my face
You don’t want forever, just a night like this
Riddim in your spine and the taste of my kiss

[Chorus – catchy dancehall hook, big chant energy]
Pressure in the bass when your body come near
Wine slow, bruk out, make the bad mind fear
Say you no mine, but you calling my name
Every drop, every whine, pull me back in the flame
Pressure in the bass, we no deal with safe
Dance like we sinning, then we pray for grace
If love too soft, then we love in rage
Two lost hearts pon a concrete stage

[Verse 2 – Spanglish drill verse, faster bounce]
Mira, mami, tú me tienes loco
Eyes say “stay”, but your words so cold, though
London blocks with a Cali-type moon
Caribbean heat in this little back room
You say “boy, no feelings, just vibe”
But your nails in my skin always tell me you lied
Every time the bass run deep through the floor
You come back like you never left before
I’m no saint, I’m a sinner with a riddim
Scars on my heart but the beat still wicked
If pain got a tempo, it sound like this
808 thunder and a poison kiss

[Bridge – half-sung, half-rapped, beat filters out]
When the lights come up and the tune wind down
Will you still want me when there’s no more sound?
Or am I just a fix when you feel too numb,
An echo in the dark when the speakers done?

[Chorus – final, fuller backing vocals, ad-libs]
Pressure in the bass when your body come near
Wine slow, bruk out, make the bad mind fear
Say you no mine, but you calling my name
Every drop, every whine, pull me back in the flame
Pressure in the bass, we no deal with safe
Dance like we sinning, then we pray for grace
If love too soft, then we love in rage
Two lost hearts pon a concrete stage

[Outro – beat fading, whispered ad-libs and reverb tails]
Bass cool down, but my chest still drum
When the night reset, you gon’ still want some
Pressure never leaves when you love like this
Just a beat, just a bruise, just a venom kiss

Male vocal, UK drill x Latino dancehall fusion, dark 808 beat, club-ready, emotional but hard-hitting vibe
