"Never Enough" is where the past, the future and the present merge into one undecided void about capitalism and existential crisis. The visuals are a blast from the past – think grainy, low-res images that scream retro – perfectly syncing with the vibe of The Order and Tears For Fears. But the lyric says otherwise - talking about the detrimental effects of modern capitalism, woven together with dread and sombre.

This song is a modern-day reality check, talking about how the relentless pursuit of more under capitalism can suck the soul right out of us. It's dark, it's somber, and it's real. It's a wakeup call wrapped in a neon package, with parts of it ironically generated entirely by AI.

The whole thing circles around this big question: Is life just about the 9 to 5 hustle? The video's main character, who gets to jump back in time to be "simpler", seems to think there's more to it. "Never Enough" isn't just a trip down memory lane; it's a mirror to our present, asking us if we're really happy in our endless race for more.
