(Janet):
Peek in the shadow
Come into the light
You tell me I'm wrong
Then you better prove you're right
You're sellin' out souls
I care about mine
I've got to get stronger
And I won't give up the fight

(Michael):
With such confusion don't it make you wanna scream
You bash abusing victimize within the scheme
(Janet):
You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize
(Both):
Somebody please have mercy cause I just can't take it

Chorus:
Stop pressurin' me
Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me
Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin' me
Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me
Make you just wanna scream

(Michael):
Tired of you tellin' the story your way
It's causin' confusion
You think it's okay

(Janet):
Keep changin' the rules
While you're playin' the game
I can't take it much longer
I think I might go insane

(Michael):
With such confusion don't it make you wanna scream
Your bash abusing vicitimize within the scheme
(Janet):
You find your pleasure scandalizin' every lie
(Both):
Oh Father, please have mercy cause I just can't take it

Chorus:
Stop pressurin' me
Just stop pressurin' me
Stop pressurin' me
Make me wanna scream
Stop pressurin' me
Just stop pressurin' me
Stop fuckin' with me
Make me wanna scream

(Janet):
Oh my God, can't believe what I saw
As I turned on the TV this evening
I was disgusted by all the injustice
All the injustice
(Michael):
All the injustice

(News Man):
("A man has been brutally beaten to death by Police after being wrongly identified as a robbery suspect. The man was an 18 year old black man..")

(Michael):
With such collusions don't it make you wanna scream
Your bash abusin' victimize within the scheme
(Janet):
You try to cope with every lie they scrutinize
(Both):
Oh brother please have mercy cause I just can't take it
