​never enough Lyrics by Jay Hollywood

​the funeral

2025

[Intro]
Oh yeah
The year was 1975
That night crickets cried
Yeah
They knew what was goin' down
Three girls travel a long country road
And one said she thinks it's time
Turn me up in the headphones
This baby wants to come right now
Yeah, look

[Verse 1]
One name, three men, two shadows
I'm living in for the rest of my life
One day, fifty years from now
I'm gonna wake up dissatisfied
The label of a third, I never asked for that
Ana said take a break, I chose to pass on that
I need my frame to fit the silhouettes of giants
Don't got time for life whеn I'm too busy trying
'Cause the threat of impеrfection is what keeps me up, self-hate try to beat me up
Competitive since I was young, don't tell me that I do much
Destroying my relationships with best friends just to make a point
And every time I breathe, I feel the pressure not to disappoint
In every single beat I make, with every single stride I take
For every shot that I capture straight, evade the pit of my mistakes
I'm not the kid I was before, I work 'til I'm not insecure
I lost my biggest fan but gained a thousand more

[Chorus]
And daddy used to tell me, "Son, the world is gon' be rough"
He said "Don't cry" so they would see me as tough
What if it's never enough? (Enough)
What if it's never enough? (Enough)
And my mommy always told me, "Son, you have to rise above" Gotta work twice as hard just to get half as much
What if it's never enough? (Enough)
What if it's never enough? (Enough)
What if it's never enough? (Enough)

[Interlude]
Yeah

[Verse 2]
And who gon' love the version of me in moments of loss?
And who gon' love the version of me that carries my flaws?
A context, pretext, best friends told me that I got a defect
I'd rather bench than wallow when I'm depressed
Rather work my pain away, don't tell me that I need rest
At lifetime the whole summer, freeing anger that I repress
Critiques all in my room, so every morning I remind myself
My character is nothing, the results how I define myself
And mommy gon' love me when my GPA is straight
When I surpass my father, he gon' tell me that I'm great
That woman gon' chase me when I finally reach that weight
And I'll just keep expanding 'til it ain't no more debate
And one day, I'll reach solace when I do become the best
Whole perception of love skewed 'cause now I factor in success
This the damage that black excellence doing to all y'all children
I need therapy but here I am too damn focused on winning
And still it's never enough, ugh...
And I'm still never enough

[Outro]
It's never enough
