Kant page 66

"In the Critique of Pure Reason it was always my greatest care to endeavor, not only carefully to distinguish the several kinds of cognition, but to derive concepts belonging to each one of them from their common source."

I think that you cannot get concepts of something without fully understanding it. You cannot just go to the common source of something and come up with a concept for that thing, you must look deeper into it and get a better understanding of it.

I believe this is true. You have to get the concepts down, or you will get mixed up. i will never get math if i do not understand the deeper meaning.
