The story behind the song

"Pressure" delves into the feeling of being overwhelmed by external expectations and the struggle to break free. The song's music video illustrates this by following a young man dealing with a demanding job and a girl facing judgment in her modeling career, with a rising pressure dial visually representing their mounting stress. It's a pop-punk and emo track that captures the frustration of being trapped in situations where others dictate your choices. Playing this song can channel the spirit of pushing back against what holds you down.
