Chorus: repeat 4X

The pressure...
(you
gotta find a way to deal with) dealin with the
peer pressure

Verse One: Havoc

As a
young black teen everyday I deal
with the
pressure and mixed up is how I feel
I walk the
streets with a fuck you attitude
And when it
comes to my peoples you ain't half as
rude
Follow the crowd or be a leader take your
pick
Now I'm smokin buddha philly blunt
style
A frustrated and confused young
juvenile
King of the project blues so I
choose
To take a piece of the action
But my
sober state of mind won't let it happen
So
twenty-four-seven it's the number one
stresser
Dealin with the peer
pressure

Chorus

Verse Two:
Prodigy

Most don't understand how it
is
in the world of today growin up as a young
black teen
I used to dream, of bein a
architect
Easier said than done, believe me
it's hard to get
out of the projects, without
forgettin where you came from

My parents
told me from day one
Finish school and avoid
all obstacles
But my environment, makes it so
impossible
For instance, build a strong social
life
Without messing up still trying to live
right
Like in junior high, I used to wonder
why
Certain females went out with certain
guys
Then one day, it all dawned on me
yo
You gotta be down, and have it goin on
see
I wasn't down with the mainstream
or
should I say their team, now I'm gettin
steamed
Gotta find a way, to get accepted by
my peers
So now I'm sippin on beers
Buyin
new gear, nuthin but the best
Forget Levi's
strictly Polo and Guess
But how would I make
the cash
It gotta be easy and it gotta be
fast
Thinkin to myself does that make me
lesser
Just, dealin with the peer
pressure

Chorus 2X

Verse Three:
Havoc

Around my way there's a kid that
most don't understand
how he lives is it
negative or positive
He has a grade A
average
But when he's on the streets, with his
friends, he's a savage
A freshman of high
school, daily attendant
He never got in
trouble never did he get suspended
Good little
Kenny who would believe
He dropped out of
school to start to smoke weed
I saw the signs
but I didn't pay attention
Because he got
offended everytime that I would mention
The
drinkin, the smokin, the low school grades
And
sleepin in class laid back with his black
shades
Nowadays you catch Kenny hangin in the
hallways
With his crew findin more ways
To
break out of school, and hit the block and get
buckwild
Stay out of the way of a mad
child
Cause he's a product of, hell
Kenny
never fell but he's gonna fall overall
So
let's take a trip to the ghetto
Where Kenny
got drunk and bought a burner off his man
so
He pulled the trigger and the suicide note
right
"I'm glad it's finally over and I'm
finally dead
And no more, do I have to feel,
lesser, or
deal with the peer
pressure"

Chorus 2X
