Jessy Lanza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby it's all I got, yeah
I wonder what it could do
Baby it's on the top, yeah
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough
It's never enough, never enough, never enough, never enough
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough for you
Been so down for so long
Known it all along, yeah yeah
You say that I'm fragile
Well, baby I don't feel like holding back
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough
It's never enough, never enough, never enough, never enough
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough for you
Baby, you know I give it all, hey
Baby, baby (I'm gonna bring you down)
Baby, baby
Say you like it, but you don't know
Give it a little time, yeah, yeah
It's the same thing, yeah it's so, so
I like you better when you don't do that
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough
It's never enough, never enough, never enough, never enough
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough for you
Baby, you know I give it all, hey
It could mean
Talk about it
Baby, I ain't (doubt, baby)
I make believe
All about it
So put me out, out, out
Got a feeling for you
Baby, it's all I got, yeah
I fucked up, but it could do
Baby it's on the top, yeah
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough
It's never enough, never enough, never enough, never enough
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough for you
Baby, you know I give it all, hey
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough
It's never enough, never enough, never enough, never enough
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough for you
It's never enough, never enough, never enough, never enough
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough
It's never enough, never enough, never enough, never enough
It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough for you
Boy, you know I give it all, hey
(It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough)
(It's never enough, never enough, never enough, never enough)
(It's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough)
The lyrics to Jessy Lanza's song "Never Enough" convey a sense of desperation and unfulfilled desires. The repeated refrain of "it's not enough, it's never enough" suggests that the singer is constantly striving for something that she cannot attain. She has a "feeling" for someone, but this feeling is all she has, and she wonders what it could do. Despite giving her all, it seems that it's never enough for this person.
The second verse suggests that the singer has been "down for so long" and that she is aware of this fact. However, she resists the idea that she is "fragile" and wants to "give it all," even if this is not enough. The song ends with a repetition of the refrain and a sense of frustration: "It's not enough, it's not enough for you / Boy, you know I give it all, hey."
Overall, the lyrics to "Never Enough" seem to capture the experience of chasing after something that seems just out of reach. The repetition of the refrain adds to the feeling of never being satisfied, despite one's best efforts.
