“Love is the flower you've got to let grow.”

John Lennon (1940–1980) English singer and songwriter

Context: We all been playing those mind games forever
Some kinda druid dudes lifting the veil.
Doing the mind guerrilla,

Love is the answer and you know that for sure.
Love is a flower, you got to let it — you got to let it grow.
