Enough
Stefan Kelk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Some days I sit and wonder why…
Why do I even try?
Will I always be the one who's left alone?
Am I a stray, without a home?
Looking in from the outside
An outcast on the sideline
And everything I do is so invisible to you now oh
Forget about how it used to be
Forget that I'm not the enemy
Don't you remember me?
I am always fighting for everyone
Always giving everything, when I am left with none
I am looking in the mirror
Some days it can be tough
What if I, what if I'm not enough?
For too long I was in a cage
But this time I will turn the page
Tell myself, I've had enough
When they keep me down I'm gonna rise above
Stepping out from the crowd this time
Don't care what they say 'cos
I won't wait for my life to arrive
I won't stand at the back of the line
I am done with fighting for everyone
No more giving everything, when I am left with none
I am looking in the mirror
Some days it can be tough
Maybe I, maybe I am enough
Ohhh
Maybe I am enough
(No more) keep me quiet, don't hold me down
(No more) thinking that I gotta save this town
I've been throwing my time away, not to afraid to say
I'm wide awake




No more lock me out, I will break the door
No more won't take the blame like I did before
No more
No more wondering if I deserve to feel alive
I'm not waiting for my life to arrive
My life to arrive
My life to arrive
No
Maybe I, maybe I am enough
I know, I was wrong
There is something inside of me, and it's been there all along
I don't have to show what I'm made of… No!
I am enough!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Stefan Kelk's song "Enough" delve into themes of self-doubt, resilience, and self-empowerment. The opening verses express a sense of isolation and questioning, with the singer wondering why they always feel left alone and unseen by others. They contemplate their worth and struggle to reconcile their efforts to be there for others with the feeling of inadequacy. The emotions run deep as they confront their sense of invisibility and longing for recognition, pleading for a remembrance of who they are beyond the surface.


In the following verses, a turning point is reached as the singer makes a bold declaration to break free from the constraints that have held them back. The imagery of being in a cage symbolizes the suffocating limitations they have endured, but now they are determined to break free and assert their worth. The repetition of the phrase "I've had enough" emphasizes the resolve to no longer be confined or diminished by others' expectations or judgments. The urge to rise above and step out from the shadows signifies a newfound determination to take control of their own narrative.


As the song progresses, there is a powerful assertion of agency and self-acceptance. The singer rejects the voices that seek to silence or diminish them, refusing to be held back or burdened by past mistakes. The refrain of "I am enough" becomes a potent mantra of self-affirmation and defiance against those who doubted them. The acknowledgment that the strength and worth have always resided within them, waiting to be recognized, underscores the journey of self-discovery and empowerment that unfolds throughout the song.


In the final verses, there is a sense of liberation and acceptance as the singer fully embraces their inherent value and potential. They reject the need to prove themselves to others or conform to external standards of success, recognizing that their worth is not contingent on external validation. The realization that they are already "enough" in their own right signifies a triumph of self-love and authenticity. The song culminates in a powerful assertion of self-worth and a declaration of independence, encapsulating a journey from doubt and struggle to self-empowerment and acceptance.
