Surface Pressure(From "Encanto"/Soundtrack Version)
I'm the strong one
- I'm the strong one
- I'm not nervous
- I'm as tough as the crust of the earth is
- I move mountains
- I move churches
- And I glow 'cause I know what my worth is
- I don't ask how hard the work is
- Got a rough indestructible surface
- Diamonds and platinum I find 'em I flatten 'em
- I take what I'm handed I break what's demanded but
- Under the surface
- I feel berserk as a tightrope walker in a three-ring circus
- Under the surface
- Was Hercules ever like "Yo I don't wanna fight Cerberus"
- Under the surface
- I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service
- A flaw or a crack
- The straw in the stack
- That breaks the camel's back
- What breaks the camel's back
- It's pressure like a drip drip drip that'll never stop whoa
- Pressure that'll tip tip tip 'til you just go pop whoa-uh-uh
- Give it to your sister your sister's older
- Give her all the heavy things we can't shoulder
- Who am I if I can't run with the ball
- If I fall to
- Pressure like a grip grip grip and it won't let go whoa
- Pressure like a tick tick tick 'til it's ready to blow whoa-uh-uh
- Give it to your sister your sister's stronger
- See if she can hang on a little longer
- Who am I if I can't carry it all
- If I falter
- Under the surface
- I hide my nerves and it worsens I worry something is gonna hurt us
- Under the surface
- The ship doesn't swerve as it heard how big the iceberg is
- Under the surface
- I think about my purpose
- Can I somehow preserve this
- Line up the dominoes
- A light wind blows
- You try to stop it tumbling
- But on and on it goes
- But wait
- If I could shake the crushing weight
- Of expectations would that free some room up for joy
- Or relaxation
- Or simple pleasure
- Instead we measure this growing pressure
- Keeps growing keep going
- 'Cause all we know is
- Pressure like a drip drip drip that'll never stop woah
- Pressure that'll tip tip tip 'til you just go pop woah-oh-oh
- Give it to your sister it doesn't hurt and
- See if she can handle every family burden
- Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks
- No mistakes just
- Pressure like a grip grip grip and it won't let go woah
- Pressure like a tick tick tick 'til it's ready to blow woah-oh-oh
- Give it to your sister and never wonder
- If the same pressure would've pulled you under
- Who am I if I don't have what it takes
- No cracks no breaks
- No mistakes
- No pressure
