Jessica Darrow - Surface Pressure (From 'Encanto')
[00:08.69] I'm the strong one, I'm not nervous
[00:11.21] I'm as tough as the crust of the earth is
[00:13.97] I move mountains, I move churches
[00:19.23] And I glow 'cause I know what my worth is
[00:23.50] I don't ask how hard the work is
[00:27.51] Got a rough indestructible surface
[00:30.03] Diamonds and platinum, I find 'em, I flatten 'em
[00:32.28] I take what I'm handed, I break what's demanding
[00:33.29] But
[00:35.55] Under the surface
[00:37.06] I feel berserk as a tightrope walker in a three-ring circus
[00:40.57] Under the surface
[00:42.32] Was Hercules ever like "Yo, I don't wanna fight Cerberus"?
[00:46.09] Under the surface
[00:47.60] I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service
[00:50.60] A flaw or a crack
[00:52.37] The straw in the stack
[00:53.62] That breaks the camel's back
[00:54.88] What breaks the camel's back it's
[00:56.13] Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
[01:00.90] Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'till you just go pop, whoa
[01:05.93] Give it to your sister, your sister's older
[01:09.68] Give her all the heavy things we can't shoulder
[01:11.94] Who am I if I can't run with the ball?
[01:15.46] If I fall to
[01:17.97] Pressure like a grip, grip, grip and it won't let go, whoa
[01:21.99] Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa
[01:27.50] Give it to your sister, your sister's stronger
[01:30.77] See if she can hang on a little longer
[01:33.77] Who am I if I can't carry it all?
[01:36.79] If I falter
[01:38.80] Under the surface
[01:40.55] I hide my nerves and it worsens, I worry something is gonna hurt us
[01:44.32] Under the surface
[01:45.58] The ship doesn't swerve as it heard how big the iceberg is
[01:49.60] Under the surface
[01:51.10] I think about my purpose, can I somehow preserve this?
[01:54.37] Line up the dominoes
[01:56.13] A light wind blows
[01:57.38] You try to stop it tumbling
[01:59.14] But on and on it goes
[02:00.40] But wait
[02:02.15] If I could shake the crushing weight of expectations
[02:09.18] Would that free some room up for joy
[02:11.43] Or relaxation, or simple pleasure?
[02:17.21] Instead we measure this growing pressure
[02:22.99] Keeps growing, keep going
[02:28.01] 'Cause all we know is
[02:32.03] Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
[02:36.79] Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa-oh-oh
[02:42.57] Give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt
[02:45.59] And see if she can handle every family burden
[02:48.34] Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks
[02:51.60] No mistakes just
[02:55.37] Pressure like a grip, grip, grip and it won't let go, woah
[02:59.38] Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'till it's ready to blow, woah
[03:04.66] Give it to your sister and never wonder
[03:07.92] If the same pressure would've pulled you under
[03:10.93] Who am I if I don't have what it takes?
[03:14.45] No cracks, no breaks
[03:17.71] No mistakes, no pressure
