As cunning as a rat chewing away at the grates of the sewer it's become trapped in.

You see yourself as the rat, but instead you are the sewer that it’s trapped in. In fact, I am that rat. Just like this maze, you have been given the freedom to complete it or not. You fought the maze and attempted to burn it down, only to give up thinking that nothing else can be done. You have no time limit to complete it, nor is there any danger that awaits you. It’s just a simple labyrinth. And I know you haven’t exhausted all of your options as well. Not thinking in the right direction.
