Hurt You (feat. Gon Haziri & Miceal)

In 'Hurt You,' naBBoo, featuring Gon Haziri and Miceal, delves into the complexities of a tumultuous relationship. The song opens with a vivid depiction of two people living in different rhythms, symbolized by their contrasting schedules. One rises with the sun while the other returns home, suggesting a disconnect that goes beyond just physical presence. This imagery sets the stage for the emotional turmoil that follows, as the narrator grapples with feelings of hurt and confusion.

The chorus reveals a deep internal conflict. The repeated lines, 'I didn’t want to hurt you, I don’t want to need you, I don’t want to break you,' highlight the narrator's struggle between love and the pain it brings. The phrase 'I go, you follow me' suggests a cycle of dependency and perhaps even a sense of inevitability in their interactions. This cyclical nature of their relationship is both a source of comfort and distress, making it difficult for the narrator to break free.

The song also touches on the idea that 'two wrongs don’t make a right,' indicating that both parties have contributed to the relationship's difficulties. The line 'Where is forever?' questions the longevity and sustainability of their love, while 'My smile, it can’t hide my feelings from within' reveals the narrator's inability to mask their true emotions. Despite the challenges, there is a reluctance to end the relationship, as expressed in 'I will never ever tell you we’re nearly done, 'cos I don’t want it that way.' This reluctance underscores the complexity of love, where the fear of loss often outweighs the pain of staying together.
