Jessica Darrow | 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

Jessica Darrow | 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
[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
A flaw or a crack, the straw in the stack
That breaks the camel's back
What breaks the camel's back, it's
[Chorus]
Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa-oh-oh
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-oh-oh
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
[Verse 2]
Under the surface
I hide my nerves and it worsens, I worry somethin' is gonna hurt us
Under the surface
The ship doesn't swerve, has 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
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa-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, whoa
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa-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
Indartsua naiz, ez naiz urduri
Lurraren lurrazala bezain gogorra naiz
Mendiak mugitzen ditut, elizak mugitzen ditut
Eta dirdira egiten dut, badakit zer den nire balioa
Ez dut lan gogorra nolakoa den galdetzen
Gainazal zakarra eta indestructible bat lortu du
Diamanteak eta platinoa, aurkitzen ditut, berdintzen ditut
Eskua hartzen dudana hartzen dut, eskatzen dena apurtzen dut, baina
[1. bertsoa]
Azaleraren azpian
Berserk tightrope ibiltari gisa sentitzen dut hiru eraztun zirkuan
Azaleraren azpian
Hercules inoiz bezalakoa zen, "Yo, ez dut Cerberus-en aurka borrokan?"
Azaleraren azpian
Ziur nago ezin dudala ezertarako balio zerbitzurik ezin badut
[Pre-Chorus]
Akats bat edo pitzadura bat, lastoa pila
Gamelu bizkarra apurtzen duena
Zerk apurtzen du gamelu bizkarra, da
[Korua]
Presioa, tantaka, tantaka, inoiz geldituko ez den tantaka, whoa
Presioa, aholkatu, aholku bat pop, whoa-oh-oh
Eman zure arreba, zure ahizpa zaharragoa
Eman sorbalda ezin ditugun gauza astun guztiak
Nor naiz bola batekin korrika egin ezin badut?
Erortzen banaiz
Presioa atxikimendua, atxikimendua, atxikimendua eta ez da utziko, Whoa
Presio gisa, markatu, markatu, tick putz egiteko prest dago, nor-oh-oh
Eman zure arreba, zure arrebaren indartsuagoa
Ikusi pixka bat luzeago zintzilikatu dezakeen ala ez
Nor naiz hori guztia eramaten ez badut?
Huts egiten badut
[2. bertsoa]
Azaleraren azpian
Nerbioak ezkutatzen ditut eta okertzen da, kezkatzen dut zerbait min egingo digutela
Azaleraren azpian
Ontziak ez du sendatzen, entzun al da iceberg zein handia den?
Azaleraren azpian
Nire xedea pentsatzen dut, nolabait gorde al dezaket hau?
Lerrokatu dominoak, haize argi batek kolpeak
Tumbling gelditzen saiatzen zara, baina aurrera doa
[Zubia]
Baina itxaron, itxaropenen pisu birrintzea astindu banu
Aske izango litzateke poztasun bila
Edo erlaxazioa, edo plazer erraza?
Horren ordez, gero eta presio handiagoa neurtzen dugu
Hazten jarraitzen du, jarraitu, badakigun guztia da
[Korua]
Presioa, tantaka, tantaka, inoiz geldituko ez den tantaka, whoa
Presioa, aholkatu, aholku bat pop, whoa-oh-oh
Eman zure ahizpari, ez du minik eta
Ikusi familiako zama guztiak kudeatu dezakeen ala ez
Begira itzazu harrapatu eta bihurguntzen baina inoiz ez da apurtzen
Akatsik ez, besterik ez
Presioa atxikimendua, atxikimendua, atxikimendua eta ez da utziko, Whoa
Presio gisa, markatu, markatu, tick putz egiteko prest dago, nor-oh-oh
Eman zure arreba eta ez inoiz harritzen
Presio berak tira egingo balu azpian
Nor naiz ni zer hartzen ez badut?
Pitzarik ez, atsedenik ez
Akatsik ez, presiorik ez
