Am E
Why did you dress our pleasure up as greed?
F Dm E
While you're limiting our love, taking sunlight from the seed?
Am Em E
Why did you give us hearts we don't understand
F Dm E
Like an apple in our hand that you'll never let us have?
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
And I hear you don't like it
E
I don't care if you don't

Oh, do you еnvy how I'm free?
F Dm E
How the life in me is rеal, running barefoot through the fields?
Am Fm Gm E
Oh, does it hurt how I don't look at you with fear?
F Dm E
Do you like to watch me kneel, 'cause the way it makes you feel?
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
And I hear you don't like it
E
I don't care if you don't
