Torn
D.J. Rock 90's Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

No you didn’t it's not believing and seeing so
Clearly it looks these days what’s vision without you
Empty what doubt do without you knowing nothing
When we met I froze and the winters so cold I’m like more and more overthrowing like over-score
Roses for you rose supported lotus loving me all this loving me Awkward and me loving you ought to
Inspire the love shower the hands by the chaos that you demand
You tore me down and I ran to the safest place
Sleeping in beds your body I met in a way that your ways are Sleepless you shapeless you faceless you doing the most

Roses are red playing with death praying that I’m raising up
I go to sleep with the dead eternally bending to the power that’s ever present
You would say you keep it bottled up
I would say drink the bottle up
You would say there's another way
I would say maybe another day
You would say you keep it bottled up
I would say drink the bottle up
You would say there's another way
I would say maybe another day
Damn, I feel like Jet Li in 08 who the fuck is Jackie Chan?
I swear I’m the man chopping the blocks on demand
Still dropping bombs Vietnam
That’s double entendres
See Bad bitches fuck with them Niggas
Don’t fuck with bad lyrics when writing they songs
That’s why the fuck I got bitches on deck
And that’s why the fuck I get Niggas respect
Never shook, play it straight, brass tacks
My tax bracket ain’t impacting them
I love the money, love the hoes, but when they leave i re up like I’m stacked again
Getting paid, kills the stress
Spending money living life
Got a new car for ten less, spent ten more on private flights
Lyrically I knock em out, on the ground, crowd yelling I flattened him
The crazy thing we both thought same thing like damn Nigga I’m back again
Diddy my Nigga but i'm more like Biggie cuz mo money ain’t no mo problems
They try me my Niggas gone rob them
They trial me Niggas won’t solve em Seas
You would say you keep it bottled up
I would say drink the bottle up
You would say there's another way
I would say maybe another day
You would say you keep it bottled up
I would say drink the bottle up

You would say there's another way
I would say maybe another day

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to D.J. Rock 90's's song "Torn in 2" delve into themes of love, vulnerability, and self-expression.

The absence of this person leaves a void of doubt and emptiness, highlighting their significance in the singer's life.

The lyrics continue to explore the impact of this person's presence on the singer. The mention of winter symbolizes a cold and isolating period, and the phrase "overthrowing like over-score" suggests an overwhelming feeling of being overtaken by emotions. Despite this turmoil, there is a recognition of love and admiration for the person, expressed through the metaphor of roses and lotus flowers.

However, despite these external indicators of success, the singer acknowledges that true fulfillment lies in their ability to express themselves artistically through their lyrics. The final lines reinforce the camaraderie and loyalty of their friends, who will protect and support them in any situation.

Overall, "Torn in 2" is a complex exploration of love, self-expression, and personal growth. It navigates the tumultuous emotions that come with the absence of a significant other, while also celebrating personal strength and artistic achievement.
