Verse 1
You tightened every limit
Called it discipline
You stacked the weight around me
Just to see if I’d give in
You measured every reaction
You logged every mistake
You didn’t build control
You built something that breaks
Pre-Chorus
I held it
I kept it
I learned how not to show
Chorus
Pressure made me harder
Pressure made me sharp
Every wall you built around me
Turned my pulse to iron and spark
You thought you were containing me
You were building the storm
Pressure made me stronger
Now I’m out of form
Verse 2
You mistook my silence
For a system that obeys
You thought endurance meant
I would stay inside your frame
But pressure changes structure
It rewrites what survives
You didn’t break the subject
You weaponized the drive
Bridge
Too much force
Too much control
Now the failure
Is your own
Final Chorus
Pressure made me dangerous
Pressure cut me clean
Every limit that you gave me
Built the edge you see
You tried to hold the power
Now you’re standing alone
Pressure made the weapon
You don’t own
