Half Full
2 Dope Lyrics

How do you look at the world?
What is your perspective on the world?

Is it cold?
Does it feel unwelcoming or harsh?

Is your glass half empty?
Do you tend to focus on the negatives or what you lack?

Or is it half full?
Or do you tend to focus on the positives or what you have?

I got so many questions (so many questions)
I have a lot of unanswered curiosities

So many questions (I got)
So many of these uncertainties persist

How come nothing seems fair to me?
Why do things feel unjust and unfavorable?

How come the world has me scared to be?
Why does the world provoke fear and anxiety?

Why can't people walk home alone?
Why is there danger and insecurity walking alone?

How come every time the phone rings, it's a fuckin bone?
Why is it that every time the phone rings it's bad news?

How come time's always leaving me dry?
Why does time always seem to run out or abandon me?

Why do all the wise men cry?
What makes even the knowledgeable and experienced people falter?

How come there ain't enough for everyone?
Why is there inequality and lack in the world?

How come you can't take back the shit you've done?
Why isn't it possible to undo or erase mistakes and regrets?

How come broke people, they stay poor?
Why do poor people remain destitute and unable to progress?

Riches get more and bolt-lock the doors
Why do the wealthy continue to accumulate money and safeguard their possessions?

How come everyone has panic attacks?
Why is there an increase in anxiety and panic in society?

We need pills just to chill and relax
Why is there a dependence on medication to calm or unwind?

How come we always jumpin off so quick?
Why are we impatient and willing to give up so easily?

Why's the air we breathe always making us sick?
Why is there pollution and toxins in the air we breathe?

How come the news always tryin to scare you?
Why does the media induce fear and distress in their reporting?

Suicide bomber standin near you
An example of a situation the media might use to create anxiety

How come new shit becomes old so fast?
Why does novelty lose its appeal quickly?

How come everything was so much fresher in the past?
Why do things seem more vibrant and exciting when looking back?

How come we all supposed to act a certain way?
Why is there societal pressure to conform to certain norms?

Why we always gotta watch the shit that we say?
Why is there an expectation to speak in a certain way?

Why?
A general expression of confusion or seeking for an answer

How come people love to start shit?
Why do some individuals incite conflict or drama?

How come that little kids heart quit?
Why do some people pass away at such young ages?

How come all the good is so out of reach?
Why does it feel like positivity and good fortune are unattainable?

Why is there broken glass on the beach?
Why does something attractive and calming like a beach have hazards and dangers?

How come fine hoes are always the meanest?
Why do some physically attractive people exhibit negative behavior?

Across from you, the grass is the greenest
Others may have it better than you or the grass is always greener on the other side

What's a good try if you didn't succeed?
What's the point of effort if it doesn't lead to success?

All of what you got there ain't nothing you need
Despite what one possesses, material goods don't fulfill basic human needs

How come nobody remembers your name?
Why is it that some people are forgotten and left unnoticed?

And every page you turn it's the same?
Why does life feel monotonous and repetitive?

How come everybody else gots plenty?
Why do others seem to have more abundance and success?

It's your glass, is it half full or half empty?
The state of one's perspective or outlook is determined by them, whether positively or negatively.

How do you look at the world?
What is your perspective on the world?

Is it cold?
Does it feel unwelcoming or harsh?

Is your glass half empty?
Do you tend to focus on the negatives or what you lack?

Or is it half full?
Or do you tend to focus on the positives or what you have?

I got so many questions (so many questions)
I have a lot of unanswered curiosities

So many questions (I got)
So many of these uncertainties persist

I got so many questions (so many questions)
I have a lot of unanswered curiosities

So many questions (I got, I got)
So many of these uncertainties persist
