Jessica Darrow - Surface Pressure (From 'Encanto'_Lyric Video)
[00:01.70] •••
[00:06.46] I'm the strong one
[00:07.96] I'm not nervous
[00:09.21] I'm as tough as the crust of the earth is
[00:11.96] •••
[00:14.71] I move mountains
[00:15.96] I move churches
[00:17.20] And I glow 'cause I know what my worth is
[00:19.71] •••
[00:21.71] I don't ask how hard the work is
[00:25.21] Got a rough, indestructible surface
[00:27.71] Diamonds and platinum, I find 'em, I flatten 'em
[00:30.20] I take what I'm handed, I break what's demanded, but
[00:32.96] Under the surface
[00:34.71] I feel berserk as a tightrope walker in a three-ring circus
[00:38.46] Under the surface
[00:39.98] Was Hercules ever like "Yo, I don't wanna fight Cerberus"?
[00:43.96] Under the surface
[00:45.71] I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service
[00:48.96] A flaw or a crack
[00:50.46] The straw in the stack
[00:51.71] That breaks the camel's back
[00:52.71] What breaks the camel's back?
[00:54.21] It's pressure like a drip, drip, drip, that'll never stop, whoa
[00:59.71] Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa-uh-uh
[01:04.96] Give it to your sister, your sister's older
[01:07.71] Give her all the heavy things we can't shoulder
[01:10.47] Who am I if I can't run with the ball?
[01:14.47] If I fall to
[01:15.70] Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa
[01:20.96] Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa-uh-uh
[01:26.21] Give it to your sister, your sister's stronger
[01:29.20] See if she can hang on a little longer
[01:31.70] Who am I if I can't carry it all?
[01:35.21] If I falter
[01:37.20] Under the surface
[01:38.70] I hide my nerves and it worsens, I worry something is gonna hurt us
[01:42.46] Under the surface
[01:43.95] The ship doesn't swerve as it heard how big the iceberg is
[01:47.96] Under the surface
[01:49.46] I think about my purpose
[01:50.96] Can I somehow preserve this?
[01:52.96] Line up the dominoes
[01:54.46] A light wind blows
[01:55.72] You try to stop it tumbling
[01:56.97] But on and on it goes
[01:58.21] But wait
[02:00.21] If I could shake the crushing weight
[02:05.71] Of expectations would that free some room up for joy?
[02:10.70] Or relaxation? Or simple pleasure?
[02:16.22] Instead we measure this growing pressure
[02:21.97] Keeps growing, keep going
[02:27.21] 'Cause all we know is
[02:30.46] Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, woah
[02:35.71] Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, woah-oh-oh
[02:41.21] Give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt and
[02:43.72] See if she can handle every family burden
[02:46.46] Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks
[02:49.46] •••
[02:50.46] No mistakes, just
[02:53.20] Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, woah
[02:58.21] Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, woah-oh-oh
[03:03.72] Give it to your sister and never wonder
[03:06.46] If the same pressure would've pulled you under
[03:08.96] Who am I if I don't have what it takes?
[03:12.71] No cracks, no breaks
[03:15.96] No mistakes
[03:16.96] No pressure
[03:17.97] •••
