Judgements



I hate being judged by those who don't know me
By those who don't know a thing
I v been through enough
To make me who I am
So don't be so quick to judge

I don't expect you understand
I don't expect you to try
I don't expect you to act like you do
I don't expect you to lie

I have a lot on my mind
Things I can't seem to shake off
A lot seems to bother me these days
But I smile and put it off

I hate being judged by those who don't know me
By those who don't know a thing
I'v been through enough
To make me who I am
So don't be so quick to judge
