How Lyrics

How could you question God's existence
When you question God himself?
Why would you ask for God's assistance
If you wouldn't take the help?

If you're gone, then I need you
If you're gone, then how is any of this real?
When I'm on, I believe you
When I'm not, my knees don't even seem to feel

How could you tell me that I'm great
When they chew me up, spit me out, pissed on me?
Why would you tell me that it's fate
When they laughed at me, every day, in my face?

They say the end is coming sooner
But the end's already here
I said today is but a rumor
That we'll laugh at in a year
Or two, or three, or four, or five, whatever

If you're gone, then I need you
If you're gone, then how is any of this real?
When I'm on, I believe you
When I'm not, my knees don't even seem to feel

How could you tell me that I'm great
When they chew me up, spit me out, pissed on me?
Why would you tell me that it's fate
When they laughed at me, every day, in my face?

How could you tell me that I'm great
When they chew me up, spit me out, pissed on me?
Why would you tell me that it's fate
When they laughed at me, every day, in my face?

How?
How could you tell me that I'm great?
How?
How could you tell me that it's fate?
How?

What is the Meaning of How?

Exploring themes of faith, self-doubt and societal perceptions, this song delves into the existential crisis experienced by the protagonist. The lyrics express a struggle with belief in God, questioning His existence despite simultaneously seeking divine assistance. This internal conflict resonates with the protagonist's perception of their own worth, as they grapple with external negative feedback despite being told they are 'great'. The repeated questions 'how?' underscore a sense of confusion and despair. The song thus serves as an introspective commentary on navigating faith and self-worth amidst societal pressures and personal insecurities. #Faith #SelfDoubt #SocietalPerceptions
