Dear God
Soul's Struggle: Unveiling the Depths of Despair in LiL BO WEEP's 'Dear God'
Lyrics
Oh God, look at me well
Expressing a plea for God's attention to the speaker's current state.
Look at the things you made me feel
Reflecting on emotions and experiences influenced by divine forces.
Did it make you happy that it made me ill?
Questioning whether God took pleasure in causing the speaker distress.
Oh God, look what you did
Expressing dismay or disappointment at the consequences of divine actions.
Look at the things that made me sin
Highlighting the negative impact of certain experiences that led to sinful behavior.
Did it make you happy that it made me ill?
Raising the question of whether God found joy in the speaker's suffering.
Oh God, look what I felt
Expressing personal feelings and experiences that seem to be associated with hardship.
Everything I know was all in hell
Indicating that the speaker's knowledge or understanding has been challenging or distressing.
Did it make you happy?
Posing a question about whether the speaker's suffering brings happiness to God.
Oh God, look at this life
Reflecting on the overall nature of the speaker's life, possibly with a negative tone.
Every little thing that passed me by
Observing passing moments in life, suggesting a sense of missed opportunities or regrets.
Did it make you happy?
Posing a question about whether God finds joy in the speaker's life experiences.
Look at the window look at the rain
Describing the external environment, specifically the window and rain, as a backdrop to the speaker's thoughts.
Look at the things around me
Encouraging the listener to observe the surroundings and context of the speaker.
Yet you gave me pain look at the window
Noting that despite external beauty, the speaker experiences pain, questioning the purpose of this suffering.
Look at my face looked at the things you did
Encouraging attention to the speaker's facial expressions and actions resulting from divine influence.
Yet I'm stuck in this place
Expressing a sense of being trapped or stuck in a difficult situation.
Oh God, look at me well
Repetition of the initial plea for God's attention and observation of the speaker's state.
Look at the things you made me feel
Reiteration of the impact of God's actions on the speaker's emotions.
Did it make you happy that it made me ill?
Repeating the question of whether God finds happiness in causing the speaker's suffering.
