hard to please by Atlantica - Zona

Lyrics

[Intro — hazy pads, soft vocal stacks]

Yeah…

You want the world but never stay for the one who brings it.

I’m done trying to fit the mold you keep shifting.

⸻

[Verse 1 — slow, pulsing low-end]

You’re hard to please, you always were,

You want Prada on your body, Dior drippin’ from your words.

Fine lines, high life, sipping heaven from a glass—

But every time I try to match it, you just raise it in a flash.

You say I’m good, but “not enough,”

Like love is measured by the price tag on your clutch.

I’m tryin’ to breathe while you keep moving goalposts,

So I’m lighting up the night just to quiet all your ghosts.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus — breathy, atmospheric]

I poured you my heart, you wanted champagne.

I gave you my truth, you wanted a name.

I wanted your soul, you wanted acclaim.

But I’m tired of losing myself in your game.

⸻

[Chorus — Holywtr energy, huge bass drop]

So I’mma keep doing me,

Even if you never see what I bring.

I can’t buy the world, but I can give my skin,

My breath, my time, my everything.

But it’s never enough for you—

Never enough, never enough for you.

So I’m lighting up, drinking through the bruise,

Escaping the headache you put me through.

⸻

[Verse 2 — colder, more rhythmic]

You love the flash, the velvet nights,

The gold-lit rooms where your ego feels right.

But I’m not a wallet with a heartbeat,

I’m not a puppet to your runway dreams.

I gave you real, you wanted fantasy,

You wanted diamond hands holding all your vanity.

So I sip slow, smoke low, let the thoughts spill—

Trying to numb the places you never tried to heal.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus — layered, darker]

I poured you my heart, you wanted champagne.

I gave you my truth, you wanted a name.

I wanted a home, you wanted the fame.

And I’m done setting myself on fire for the flame.

⸻

[Chorus — harder, more defiant]

So I’mma keep doing me,

Even if you never see what I bring.

I can’t buy the world, but I can give my skin,

My breath, my time, my everything.

But it’s never enough for you—

Never enough, never enough for you.

So I’m lighting up, drinking through the bruise,

Escaping the headache you put me through.

⸻

[Heavy metal breakdown, dirty, dense bass]

[Breakdown — low, metallic bass hits, distant alarms, guttural screams]

YOU WANT THE WORLD ON A SILVER PLATE—

BUT YOU NEVER GAVE A DAMN WHAT I GAVE!

I BROKE MY BACK JUST TO FEED YOUR TASTE,

WHILE YOU CHASED HIGH LIFE LIKE A DAMN PARADE!

I’M DONE BLEEDING JUST TO MAKE YOU WHOLE!

I’M DONE SHRINKING JUST TO FIT YOUR ROLE!

IF I’M NOT ENOUGH—THEN LET ME GO!

I’D RATHER KEEP MYSELF THAN LOSE MY SOUL!

⸻

[Outro — soft, fading, post hardcore reverb]

Never enough for you…

But more than enough for me.

You’re so superficial,

So fucking hard to please

So I’mma keep doing me,

Even if you never see what I bring.

I can’t buy the world, but I can give my skin,

My breath, my time, my everything.
