Don’t judge because you don’t know,
My past is something you will never
understand.
I made mistakes but that was long ago.
I’ve lived a life with nothing to show,
I thought by now it would be more
grand.
Don’t judge because you don’t know.
Sometimes we change and grow,
And often take a stand.
I made mistakes but that was long ago.
I had nowhere left to go,
And took it by the hand.
Don’t judge because you don’t know.
I sit trembling as though sitting in
snow,
And everything is so bland.
I made mistakes but that was long ago.
It’s like life’s dealt me one final
blow,
I don’t deserve this reprimand.
Don’t judge because you don’t know,
I made mistakes but that was long ago.
