Line by Line Meaning
One day I decided to pray
At one point in time, I chose to communicate with a spiritual being.
I kneeled down & looked to the sky
I assumed a position of prayer, with my eyes pointed towards the heavens.
He turned his back & I started to cry
The deity ignored my supplication, causing me to become emotional.
I asked God why is life so hard
I inquired of the higher power as to why existence is so difficult.
So I turn my back on you
As a result of feeling neglected, I renounced my faith.
You turn your back on me
The supreme being appeared to abandon me.
Fuck your system and fuck you too
I reject and express disdain for the established order and the divine entity.
You're just trying to keep me down
My impression is that you aim to oppress me.
You tell me to follow your rules
You issue me instructions to abide by.
Well how the fuck do you expect me to obey them
I am skeptical of my ability to comply with them.
When you can't even follow them yourself
You seem to lack the capacity to conform to said regulations.
