    A dark ballad about the pressures of life and the woes of one standing at the brink of impending doom . Pressure is a cry from the depths of despair .
    CD: L.O.D. " Rules to the Game "   Label: Nectarine
    Credits: Carter , Wofford , Davenport , Burks . Production by Alvin Carter

    Story Behind the Song
    This was a lyurical effort originally by Porsche Davenport . His idea was to put all of his despair into the song . The trials and tribulations of life , the pressures of being a struggling artist and the vise of life itself clamping around and engulfing the artist.It can be viewed as a cry in the night or a wail from the depths of despair . Picture yourself in a black hole of despair and crying and no one listens .Recorded at Nectarines small home studio using a Korg D16 .. In November 2001 .. it took 2 takes but quite a while to find the right sound.

    Lyrics
    As I stare into the night ,
    All alone in the falling rain
    Water cold , I'm never warm
    you can see it in my eyes
    Like the eyes of a hurricane
    Just the calm before the storm
    You can see it in my life
    Satin sheets on a troubled bed
    And these dreams are getting real
    Is it black or is it white
    all the words that I never said
    is this how I really feel
    This is the life that I chose
    The life that I live
    I dont ask no one for nothing
    I dont take I dont give
    Dont ask to hear my story
    dont ask me to explain
    I alone will take the glory
    I alone face the pain
    Pressure
    I cant cant stand the pressure

    Like a vampire bat out of hell
    I will fly through the burning flame
    Fire's hot
    Hell seems cold
    If it wasn't my soul
    I would sell it
    for a stake in the poker game
    The game of life
    So I been told
    And the winners all die
    So I'll be damned but I want to win
    three cents down and four to go
    I and hope the story lines
    Refused to lose but can't seem to win
    and If i lose I lose my soul
    people live in glasses houses afraid to see the night
    the scale will cry for justice
    who is wrong
    who is right
    did I have to be a victim
    did i have to do the crime
    live or die is my decision
    Go to hell or do the time
    Pressure ,
    I cant stand the pressure

    You can see it in my face cause I know its
    In my eyes
    Few care if I live
    Most dont care if I die
    Am I losing my mind
    Am I going insane
    Must I live with no soul
    Must I die with no name

    (repeat bridge 1 then chorus and fade)
    2002 Alvin the First Music BMI
