[Verse 1]

I'm too young to stop dancing

I'm too young not to cry

I'm too young to be accountable

I'm too young to die

I may not die like literally

I just mean dying inside

Like everyone I see around me

All so numb, so bored, so tired

[Chorus]

So you do what you do

And leave me go my way

So me asking politely

Gon' do your good and keep the tiger in its cage

'Cause I know the night

And I know about the day

I like them both equally

I'm complex that way

I'm complex that way

I'm complex that way

I'm complex that way

I'm complex that way

[Verse 2]

I'm too young to get tied down

I'm too young to grow up

I'm too young to be at the sidewalk

I'm too young to fall in love

I'm too young to go to prison

But prison's where I go

If I did half of what I'm thinking

If I said half of what I know

[Chorus]

So you do what you do

And leave me go my way

So me asking politely

Gon' do your good and keep the tiger in its cage

'Cause I know the night

And I know about the day

I like them both equally

I'm complex that way

I'm complex that way

I'm complex that way

I'm complex that way

I'm complex that way
