Analysis of Tenfold



Do you really even know the person that is me?
Things that you do know is what I choose to let you see.
And are you so perfect to be able to judge?
Even to the point that you want to hold a grudge?
I guess you've never done anything that you regret.
If not, you just wait, your life isn't over yet.
It's hard for me to believe that wrong you've never done.
The only difference is that your mistakes aren't visible to everyone.
So go right ahead and believe what you're told.
Ignore me, hurt me, and treat me cold.
But just remember this, as you're being so bold,
the way that you treat people will come back to you, tenfold.
