no es tan difícil
Ernes
The Struggle for Self-Worth in Love
In "no es tan difícil," Ernes delves into the complexities of self-worth and love, capturing the emotional turmoil of feeling undervalued in a relationship. The song begins with a sense of regret, as the narrator reflects on ignoring their intuition and believing in the false promises of being special. This sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the internal conflict between the desire for love and the pain of feeling like just another face in the crowd.
The lyrics poignantly express the narrator's yearning for a genuine connection, emphasizing that they deserve a true love story. However, the repeated assertion that "it's not so hard to love me" highlights the frustration and hurt caused by a partner who makes them feel like an exception rather than the rule. This sentiment is further intensified by the partner's dismissive and hurtful behavior, which is depicted through the imagery of being shouted at and made to feel insignificant.
Ernes also touches on the theme of change within a relationship, reminiscing about a time when love felt real and the partner's gaze was filled with admiration. The shift from those moments to the current state of emotional neglect raises questions about the nature of love and whether it should ever make one feel bad. Through this introspective journey, the song ultimately becomes a powerful anthem for self-acceptance and the belief that everyone deserves to be loved without conditions or exceptions.
