Nicolette Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

a pill, a pill, a pill, a pill ,
am in a bad, bad mood and its all because of you,
and there's nothing you can do , harden up ( you betta harden up)

am in a bad, bad mood and its all because of you,
and there's nothing you can do , harden up ( you betta harden up)




Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Nicolette's song Harden Up seem to be about the singer being in a bad mood because of someone they are in a relationship with. The repeated phrase "a pill, a pill" can be interpreted as the singer wanting to take medication to ease their emotional pain, but they eventually confront the root of the problem as being the other person. The phrase "harden up" is repeated multiple times throughout the song and seems to be a call to action for the other person to toughen up and take responsibility for their actions, rather than causing emotional turmoil for the singer.


The song appears to be a commentary on the challenges of dealing with negative emotions in relationships and the importance of communication and taking responsibility. The repeated use of the phrase "harden up" can also be interpreted as a criticism of toxic masculinity and the "toughen up" mentality often imposed on men. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of frustration and helplessness, but also a sense of empowerment and the belief that change is possible if both parties are willing to work towards it.
