2wo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and two tablespoons of sugar
to be on your side would suicide
For its clear you are the loser
i'm learning to laugh
at all your attacks
get off my back
just leave me alone
why can't you just leave me alone?
just leave me alone
God's given me authority
so to you I'll never be bound
you're wasting time on this soul of mine
so why don't you run along now?
you're deep in debt, your fate has been set
sound like a threat?
why can't you just leave me alone?
just leave me alone
why can't you just leave me alone?
just leave me alone
The lyrics in 2wo's song Leave Me Alone convey a message of being tired of someone who is constantly bringing negativity and toxicity into the singer's life. The first line "you fill my head with death and dread" suggests that the person is constantly bringing negative thoughts and feelings to the singer's life, while also attempting to sweeten it up with "two tablespoons of sugar." The line "to be on your side would suicide, for it's clear you are the loser" suggests that being associated with this person would be detrimental to the singer and that the person they are addressing is ultimately the one who will suffer in the end.
The chorus "why can't you just leave me alone?" is a plea for the person to stop being a burden on the singer's life, as they are "learning to laugh" at all the attacks and are willing to use their faith, with the line "God's given me authority, so to you I'll never be bound," to protect themselves and refuse to be held down by this person. The final lines "you're deep in debt, your fate has been set, sound like a threat?" suggest that the singer is aware of the person's negative actions, potentially involving debt, and is not intimidated by their threats.
Overall, the message of the song is one of empowerment and refusing to allow negative individuals to bring you down, while also acknowledging the futility of trying to change someone who is unwilling to change themselves.
