As the pressure drops, the thrust will also decrease. Also, as the rocket flies higher into the air, the outside air pressure can have an effect on the rocket's internal pressures and its thrust.

How does a rocket moves forward?
Rockets are propelled forward by thrust generated by the combustion of rocket fuel and controlling the direction of the exhaust.
What is the forward force produced in a rocket engine?
Thrust
Working principal of rocket?
Rocket engines obtain their thrust in accordance with Isaac Newton's third law, making the rocket a reaction engine. A rocket engine is simply a jet engine.
What does the thrust of a model rocket depend on?
The size of the engine you put in it.
What does the engine do on a space rocket?
Provide thrust ... which changes velocity.
