Answer 4

ok! ill stop following you around
, after this one!

but i can see someone walking by a bumb in need on the street, and not do anything, even if they feel a little pity for him they just overlook him because they have no love for that person, or "open" eyes to see this dirty stranger as a person no different than themselfs..but then another dude walks by, and when the man asks for help,(or even if he didnt ask) he stops everything and does all that he can, and more for him

thats what i think it means

Answer 5
