Enough
Breaking Chains: Unveiling the Struggle in Eric Bellinger's 'Enough'
Lyrics
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Repetition of "Yeah" sets a tone of affirmation or agreement.
Enough is enough
Expressing a limit or reaching a point where tolerance ends.
Stop hiding the truth from me
Request to stop concealing the truth.
I deserve to know what's real
Asserting the right to know what's genuine or truthful.
Ain't nothing like it used to be
Highlighting a contrast with the past, suggesting change.
And I don't know how to feel
Expressing confusion or ambivalence about current emotions.
It seem like everyday, it's something else
Describing a sense of constant challenges or issues.
I'm tryna keep my faith, but I'm overwhelmed, yeah
Struggling to maintain faith in the face of overwhelming circumstances.
First, they drain you mentally
Referring to mental exhaustion caused by external factors.
Threaten your identity
Highlighting a threat to one's sense of self or individuality.
Then they treat you like the enemy
Describing a shift in treatment to being perceived as an adversary.
God damn, repetition of history
Expressing frustration at the recurrence of negative patterns.
So the future ain't no mystery
Suggesting that the future is predictable based on past experiences.
Is it all a conspiracy, god damn
Pondering the possibility of a coordinated effort against the individual.
We've been through enough, enough, enough
Reiterating that the endured challenges are sufficient.
Is enough, enough, enough
Questioning if the threshold for tolerance has been reached.
We've been, we've been through too much, ayy
Emphasizing that the collective has experienced too much.
Police brutality, yeah
Specifically mentioning the issue of police brutality.
We've been through too much, ayy
Reiterating the collective experience of enduring significant challenges.
Time for new strategy, yeah, yeah, ayy
Suggesting a need for a new approach or plan.
First, they drain you mentally
Repeating the description of mental exhaustion and strain.
Threaten your identity
Reiterating the threat to one's sense of self or identity.
Then they treat you like the enemy
Repeating the shift in treatment towards hostility.
God damn, repetition of history
Reiterating frustration at the recurrence of negative patterns.
So the future ain't no mystery
Reiterating the predictability of the future based on past experiences.
Is it all a conspiracy, god damn
Questioning the possibility of a coordinated effort against the individual.
We've been through enough, enough, enough
Reiterating that the endured challenges are sufficient.
Is enough, enough, enough, we've been
Questioning if the threshold for tolerance has been reached.
We've been through (sheesh)
Repeating the statement of enduring significant challenges.
