Avoidant: Solving for the Unknown

Teacher's staring, I’m just staring at the page Numbers locked inside a little metal cage Parentheses are walls, yeah, they’re closing in Distribution starts, tell me where do I begin? I see the coefficients standing in a row They’re acting like they’re friends but they’ve got nowhere to go I’m hiding from the constants, they’re so loud and plain While the variables are dancing inside of my brain.

Do I move it to the left? Do I move it to the right? I’m balancing the scale Until the morning light. Inverse operations, yeah, they’re pulling on my sleeve If I don’t find the product, then I’m never gonna leave.

I’m so Avoidant, avoiding the x I’m caught in a cycle, it’s making me flex Is it a Function? Or just a mistake? How many Intersects do I have to take? Isolate the term, yeah, keep it all alone In this Coordinate Plane, I’m out on my own I’m so Avoidant, solving for the unknown.

Polynomials are whispering under their breath Degree of three, yeah, it’s scaring me to death I’ll factor out the common, I’ll pull it from the root Like a bitter piece of candy, or a forbidden fruit. Check the discriminant, see if it’s real Solving quadratics is a heavy kind of deal The parabola’s a smile, or is it just a frown? When the leading coefficient tries to bring me down.

Rise over Run, you’re walking up the stairs Slope-intercept, nobody even cares y=mx+b Is that all you see in me?Inequalities are greedy, they want more or less Shading in the graph, cleaning up the mess.Keep it balanced... What you do to one side, do to the other... Don’t be Avoidant... Just solve for x... Solve for me...
