Bees Lyrics

It seems like a woman talking to her ex (rapist!?), who she's had a baaad relationship with, years after they parted ways. He's is trying to get 'his' child from her. He's "gotten himself straight" after all this time, and feels like he can come back into her life, but she's not planning on letting him. "I'm not the one to continue on." It was probably an abusive relationship, "And your thoughts they got me", and she isn't going to let him think he's ever going to come back to her, much less her kid, until, possibly, he stops thinking he's got any right to ever do so.

"So work harder for the things you made in me"
