Surface Pressure Lyrics
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 grow ’cause
I know 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 tighttrope
Walker in a three ring circus
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 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 till you just go pop, whoa
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 blow, whoa
Give it to sister,
Your sister’s stronger
See if she can hang
On a little longer
Who am I if can’t
carry it all if i father
Under the surface
I hide my nerves and
it wornes, I worry somthing
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 Expectation
Would that free some room
Up for joy
Or relaxation, or simple pleasure
Keeps growing, keep going
‘Cause all we know is
Pressure like a drip, drip,
Drip that’ll never stop, woah
Give it to your sister,
It doesn’t hurt and see if she can
Hnadle every family burden
Watch as she buckles and
Bends But never breaks
No mistake, just
Pressure like a grip, grip, grip
And it won’t let go, woah
Pressure like a grip, grip, grip
And it won’t let go, woah
Pressure a tick, tick, tick
Till it’s ready to blow, woah
Give it 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 no breaks
No mistake No mistake
