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
Ni mai ƙarfi ne, ba ni da damuwa
Ina mai tauri kamar yadda muryoyin duniya yake
Na motsa tsaunuka, na motsa majami'u
Kuma ina haske, 'sanannen na san abin da ya cancanci na
Ba na tambayar yadda aikin yake
Samu da wuya, farfajiya mara tushe
Diamonds da platinum, na sami 'em, na buga' em
Ina ɗaukar abin da na mika ni, na karya abin da ake buƙata, amma
[Aya 1]
A karkashin farfajiya
Ina jin berserk a matsayin mai tafiya mai tafiya a cikin zobe mai zobe uku
A karkashin farfajiya
Hercules da kullun, "yo, I dont wanna yaƙi cerberus?"
A karkashin farfajiya
Na tabbata ina da amfani idan ba zan iya zama na aiki ba
[Pre-courus]
A aibi ko crack, bambaro a cikin tari
Wannan ya karya rakumi na baya
Abin da ya karya rakumi na baya, yana da
[Chorus]
Matsin lamba kamar drip, drip, drip ba zai daina, waye
Matsin lamba
Ba shi ga 'yar'uwarku, tsohuwar' yar uwarku
Ba ta duk abubuwan da ba za mu iya kafada ba
Wanene ni idan ba zan iya gudu tare da kwallon ba?
Idan na fadi
Matsin lamba kamar riƙewa, riƙe, riƙe, kuma ba zai bari ba, waye
Matsin lamba
Ba shi 'yar'uwarku, mai ƙarfi
Gani idan za ta iya rataye a kan ɗan lokaci kaɗan
Wanene ni idan ba zan iya ɗaukar shi ba?
Idan na yi sanyi
[2]
A karkashin farfajiya
Na boye jijiyoyi na da shi
A karkashin farfajiya
Jirgin baya baya karkatar da shi, ya ji yadda babban dusar kankara take?
A karkashin farfajiya
Ina tunani game da dalilina, zan iya adana wannan?
Layi daya domin
Kuna ƙoƙari ku dakatar da shi, amma a kunne kuma a kan ta tafi
[Gada]
Amma jira, idan na iya girgiza nauyin tsammanin
Hakan zai 'yantar da wasu dakuna don murna
Ko shakatawa, ko m jin daɗi?
Madadin haka, mun auna wannan matsin lamba
Yana ci gaba da girma, ci gaba da tafiya, 'san abin da muka sani shine
[Chorus]
Matsin lamba kamar drip, drip, drip ba zai daina, waye
Matsin lamba
Ba shi ga 'yar'uwarku, ba ya cutar da
Duba Idan za ta iya ɗaukar kowane nauyin dangi
Kalli yayin da take cin abinci da tanƙwara amma ba ya karya
Babu kuskure, kawai
Matsin lamba kamar riƙewa, riƙe, riƙe, kuma ba zai bari ba, waye
Matsin lamba
Ba shi 'yar'uwarku kuma baya mamaki
Idan matsin lamba iri ɗaya zai ja ka
Wanene ni idan ba ni da abin da yake ɗauka?
Babu fasa, babu karya
Babu kuskure, babu matsin lamba
