Lyrics:

So you sidon dey talk about my mata
Talk about my life like say na you dey write am
Carry am for head like say na you wey get am
You dey broadcast my mata like say you be newscaster
I wonder, I tire, trust me I dey ponder
On how the tory no correct but see as e go viral
And everyone believe am as e be say na you talk am
I hear am, I remain calm, I no bother dispute am and that’s because

If you really wanna know the truth
Then maybe you should ask for proof
No one knows my life the way I do
You don’t even know me, so how can you judge me?

They won’t tell my story like I would
They don’t even know me, how can they tell my story?

Say: One shot, two hits, three stitches, four
If the shoes don’t fit then you cannot feel the heat,
Say: One shot, two hits, three stitches, four
At least before you judge me try to find out what the truth is

One shot, two hits, three stitches, four
If they don’t know me then they cannot tell my story
One shot, two hits, three stitches, four
At least before you judge me try to get to really know me

One shot, two hits, three stitches, four
If the shoes don’t fit then you cannot feel the heat, say
One shot, two hits, three stitches, four
At least before you judge me try to find out what the truth is

English version of the first verse

So you sit down to talk about my matter
Talk about my life as if you are the writer
Take it upon yourself as if you are the owner
You’re broadcasting my matter like you are a newscaster
I wonder, I’m tired, trust me I am pondering
On how the story isn’t true but see how it’s gone viral
And everyone believes it because it was you who said it
I heard it but remained calm, didn’t bother to clear the air and that’s because

About “Before You Judge”

Before You Judge is a song about rumour-mongering. It talks about the damages it causes and how frustrating it could be for the one who is falsely being accused. At the end of the day, if one must know the truth, one must verify it. It doesn’t usually hurt till it’s done to you.

The inspiration came from a personal place. I’ve heard some unbelievable stories about myself that sometimes I just wonder how someone just sat down to create such stories. It’s mind-boggling. I also know people who have complained of the same thing. Apparently. it’s something most people can relate to.

Another source of inspiration came from Kwon’s Lofi Mallet instrumental. When I first heard it, I was like “Wow! This beat would be perfect for this issue.” Oh well, the rest is history.

Have you heard false stories about yourself? Would love to hear about it at the comment section below.
