Pressure Under Fire - Gov't Mule

Just another song about the same thing

So many have been written

By now you’d think we know better

Maybe just one lonely voice

Is never gonna be enough

We’ve all got to sing it together

Oh, we’re all fighting the same fight

We’re all traveling down life’s road

There’s only so much you can do by yourself

People, we got to share the load

Yeah, we got to share the load

The next sound you hear

Pressure under fire

Living in fear

Of what we don’t understand

It all seems so clear

Pressure under fire

Ain’t no way to live in this land

We all know how this ends

So many times, so many places

By now you’d think we’d have learned

From any one of those times

That it blew up in our faces

How many times can you be burned?

We keep on moving in the wrong direction

Oh, we keep on heading down the same old track

There’s only so much you can take

Only so many times we can turn our backs

People, we can’t keep turning our backs

The next sound you hear

Pressure under fire

Living in fear

Of what we don’t understand

It all seems so clear

Pressure under fire

Ain’t no way to live in this land

And a wise man said

Human race is the only race

Oh, you can’t dispel darkness with darkness

It’s been said so many times

We got to learn to work together

If we’re gonna get out of this mess

Just another song about the same thing

So many have been sung

By now you’d think we know better

The next sound you hear

Pressure under fire

Living in fear

Of what we don’t understand

It all seems so clear

Pressure under fire

Ain’t no way to live in this land

Pressure under fire

Living in fear

Of what we don’t understand

It all seems so clear

Pressure under fire

Ain’t no way to live in this land

No way to live

Oh

No way to live in this land
