Before Anything Else

Before you plant seeds of wrath to build an empire, don't forget to water them so they'll never rot.

Before you harvest secrets, remember to sell them fresh cause it'll be embarrassing if they're not.

Before you play like an athlete, take a look at the field first and plan your strategy.

Before you count faults, note that I keep receipts of how you brag about your money.

Before you jump to conclusion, make sure you tried wearing my old fuzzy shoe.

Before you judge, make sure you fit the same tight jeans I wore so you'll have a clue.

Before you serve people a goblet of lies, like they're in some sort of thirst.

Never forget to check, inspect and look at yourself in the mirror first.
