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
Fi yw'r un cryf, dwi ddim yn nerfus
Rydw i mor anodd ag y mae cramen y ddaear
Dwi'n symud mynyddoedd, dwi'n symud eglwysi
Ac rwy'n tywynnu, 'achos dwi'n gwybod beth yw fy ngwerth
Nid wyf yn gofyn pa mor galed yw'r gwaith
Wedi cael arwyneb garw, anorchfygol
Diemwntau a phlatinwm, dwi'n dod o hyd i 'em, dwi'n fflatio' em
Rwy'n cymryd yr hyn rydw i'n ei roi, dwi'n torri'r hyn sy'n cael ei fynnu, ond
[Adnod 1]
O dan yr wyneb
Rwy'n teimlo ar y gweill fel cerddwr tynn mewn syrcas tair cylch
O dan yr wyneb
A oedd Hercules erioed yn debyg, "Yo, dwi ddim eisiau ymladd Cerberus?"
O dan yr wyneb
Rwy'n eithaf sicr fy mod yn ddi -werth os na allaf fod o wasanaeth
[Cyn-Gorws]
Nam neu grac, y gwellt yn y pentwr
Mae hynny'n torri cefn y camel
Beth sy'n torri cefn y camel, mae'n
[Corws]
Pwysau fel diferu, diferu, diferu na fydd byth yn stopio, whoa
Pwysau a fydd yn tipio, tip, tip 'nes i chi fynd yn bop, whoa-oh-oh
Rhowch hi i'ch chwaer, hŷn eich chwaer
Rhowch yr holl bethau trwm iddi na allwn eu hysgwydd
Pwy ydw i os na allaf redeg gyda'r bêl?
Os ydw i'n cwympo i
Pwysau fel gafael, gafael, gafael, ac ni fydd yn gadael i fynd, whoa
Pwysau fel ticio, ticiwch, ticiwch 'nes ei fod yn barod i chwythu, whoa-oh-oh
Rhowch hi i'ch chwaer, cryfach eich chwaer
Gweld a all hi hongian ar ychydig yn hirach
Pwy ydw i os na allaf gario'r cyfan?
Os ydw i'n MACKRE
[Adnod 2]
O dan yr wyneb
Rwy'n cuddio fy nerfau ac mae'n gwaethygu, rwy'n poeni bod somethin 'yn mynd i brifo ni
O dan yr wyneb
Nid yw'r llong yn gwyro, a yw wedi clywed pa mor fawr yw'r mynydd iâ?
O dan yr wyneb
Rwy'n meddwl am fy mhwrpas, a allaf rywsut warchod hyn?
Llinellu'r dominos, mae gwynt ysgafn yn chwythu
Rydych chi'n ceisio ei atal rhag cwympo, ond ymlaen ac ymlaen mae'n mynd
[Pont]
Ond arhoswch, pe bawn i'n gallu ysgwyd pwysau gwasgu disgwyliadau
A fyddai hynny'n rhyddhau rhywfaint o le i lawenydd
Neu ymlacio, neu bleser syml?
Yn lle, rydym yn mesur y pwysau cynyddol hwn
Yn dal i dyfu, daliwch ati, 'achos y cyfan rydyn ni'n ei wybod yw
[Corws]
Pwysau fel diferu, diferu, diferu na fydd byth yn stopio, whoa
Pwysau a fydd yn tipio, tip, tip 'nes i chi fynd yn bop, whoa-oh-oh
Ei roi i'ch chwaer, nid yw'n brifo a
Gweld a all hi drin pob baich teulu
Gwyliwch wrth iddi fwcedi a phlygu ond byth yn torri
Dim camgymeriadau, dim ond
Pwysau fel gafael, gafael, gafael, ac ni fydd yn gadael i fynd, whoa
Pwysau fel ticio, ticiwch, ticiwch 'nes ei fod yn barod i chwythu, whoa-oh-oh
Rhowch ef i'ch chwaer a pheidiwch byth â rhyfeddod
Pe bai'r un pwysau wedi eich tynnu o dan
Pwy ydw i os nad oes gen i yr hyn sydd ei angen?
Dim craciau, dim seibiannau
Dim camgymeriadau, dim pwysau
