KIDZ BOP Kids - Surface Pressure lyrics
[KIDZ BOP Kids - Surface Pressure lyrics]
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 surе I'm worthless if
I can't be of servicе
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 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
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 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, 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
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
