I'm a free thinker I make my own observations That one friend of yours Is not a free thinker In fact I don't know if she thinks Some of the smart people They're the most closed minded They read a lot and take in a lot, they become *** Laude+ But they believe things like the WBC Believes what they believe See, some of the dumber people Like the Steve Wozniaks Like the Bill Gates of this world Those free thinkers that were really the smartest But didn't like society's games They are the real success stories. But we're taught that the only success you can get Is going to Harvard with a 4.0 In a field where the pay is good and jobs are hot But a field in which where you went to college doesn't mean crap, Because they're not looking for bookworms but looking for free thinkers That friend of yours She's been through pain So she knows the pain So she can relate But that might be where it stops That friend of yours She'll have your back and she cares But she's a little bitter I mean, pretty bitter sometimes I think you know this already She told her cousin once She found that talking helps When there's a misunderstanding That she wished people would talk And work it all out But she doesn't do that at all She shuts people off She shuts people out Just like when she got annoyed When you got less into her You see People who hold grudges Who shut people out They live a world of suffering They live the saying "Nice guys finish last" But they make it that way Those people are the reason that saying exists They say that those who don't learn From history are doomed to repeat it Let me just say she's one of those people You're turning into one too, Losing the free thinker inside of you When you think you're making her For the first time I wish you'd listen And not let your emotions overwhelm you but use the logic in your brain Because your emotions are clouding your thinking They're clouding your thoughts They're clouding what you think you know about me, I think Because you're doing that thing your friend does where you stop listening
