[00:00]Surface Pressure (From "Encanto"/Soundtrack Version) - Jessica Darrow
[00:02]Lyrics by:Lin-Manuel Miranda
[00:04]Composed by:Lin-Manuel Miranda
[00:06]I'm the strong one
[00:07]I'm not nervous
[00:09]I'm as tough as the crust of the earth is
[00:14]I move mountains
[00:16]I move churches
[00:17]And I glow 'cause I know what my worth is
[00:22]I don't ask how hard the work is
[00:25]Got a rough indestructible surface
[00:27]Diamonds and platinum I find 'em I flatten 'em
[00:30]I take what I'm handed I break what's demanded but
[00:33]Under the surface
[00:34]I feel berserk as a tightrope walker in a three-ring circus
[00:38]Under the surface
[00:40]Was Hercules ever like "Yo I don't wanna fight Cerberus"
[00:44]Under the surface
[00:45]I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service
[00:48]A flaw or a crack
[00:50]The straw in the stack
[00:51]That breaks the camel's back
[00:52]What breaks the camel's back
[00:54]It's pressure like a drip drip drip that'll never stop whoa
[00:59]Pressure that'll tip tip tip 'til you just go pop whoa-uh-uh
[01:05]Give it to your sister your sister's older
[01:07]Give her all the heavy things we can't shoulder
[01:10]Who am I if I can't run with the ball
[01:14]If I fall to
[01:15]Pressure like a grip grip grip and it won't let go whoa
[01:21]Pressure like a tick tick tick 'til it's ready to blow whoa-uh-uh
[01:26]Give it to your sister your sister's stronger
[01:29]See if she can hang on a little longer
[01:31]Who am I if I can't carry it all
[01:35]If I falter
[01:37]Under the surface
[01:38]I hide my nerves and it worsens I worry something is gonna hurt us
[01:42]Under the surface
[01:44]The ship doesn't swerve as it heard how big the iceberg is
[01:48]Under the surface
[01:49]I think about my purpose
[01:51]Can I somehow preserve this
[01:53]Line up the dominoes
[01:54]A light wind blows
[01:55]You try to stop it tumbling
[01:57]But on and on it goes
[01:58]But wait
[02:00]If I could shake the crushing weight
[02:05]Of expectations would that free some room up for joy
[02:10]Or relaxation
[02:13]Or simple pleasure
[02:16]Instead we measure this growing pressure
[02:21]Keeps growing keep going
[02:27]'Cause all we know is
[02:30]Pressure like a drip drip drip that'll never stop woah
[02:35]Pressure that'll tip tip tip 'til you just go pop woah-oh-oh
[02:41]Give it to your sister it doesn't hurt and
[02:43]See if she can handle every family burden
[02:46]Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks
[02:51]No mistakes just
[02:53]Pressure like a grip grip grip and it won't let go woah
[02:58]Pressure like a tick tick tick 'til it's ready to blow woah-oh-oh
[03:03]Give it to your sister and never wonder
[03:06]If the same pressure would've pulled you under
[03:09]Who am I if I don't have what it takes
[03:12]No cracks no breaks
[03:15]No mistakes
[03:16]No pressure
