All right I'm not gon try to get it any more because I do believe I understand you
All this thinking for such a simple science
What does a bee do when the flower blooms?
What does the alley cat do when the unchained dog begins to growl?
I do believe I understand it now
I would be attracted to me too
I would be afraid of me if I ever got free too
I would create the bars and the locks and the chains and work so things won't change too if I were you
Just know that I am not blind anymore
Busy wasting my time no more
Busy tryin to understand you
I'm too busy understanding me
And you will always be afraid and we both know that
Don't we
