Pressure and Time - Rival Sons

Give me only what I need

It doesn’t take too much to keep me satisfied

Down to work for my money and earn my keep

Hunger’s got a way to tame a man’s pride

Can we build it up?

I know that we can

Let’s get to work every woman and man

With pressure and time

I said I’m gonna get mine

I’m not asking for a throne and crown

I’m not pining for a starving queen

Tooth and nail will wear any man down

And my Mama keeps telling me I’m lookin' too lean

Can we build it up?

I know that we can

Let’s get to work every woman and man

With pressure and time

I said I’m gonna get mine

Take me out of this mudslide or never enough

Let me eat from the fruit right off of the tree

When God gets his rest because six days are just too rough

I can only pray he doesn’t forget about me
