[Intro (Spoken)]
Court is now in session.
The case…
The People…
Versus…
You.
[Full orchestral swell]
[Verse 1]
Every mistake
You’ve ever made.
Every promise
You never kept.
Every person
You let down.
Take a seat.
We’ve been waiting.
Evidence is everywhere.
Look around.
Your own memories
Already testified.
[Pre-Chorus]
No jury.
No lawyer.
No appeal.
Just the voice
Inside your head.
[Chorus]
I am the judge.
I know your name.
I know the things
You try to hide.
You can pray.
You can run.
You can change.
But every night…
I’ll be waiting.
[Verse 2]
Remember
When you almost quit?
Remember
The nights
You hated yourself?
Remember
Every mirror
You couldn’t look into?
I do.
I remember everything.
[Verse]
You think success
Erases scars?
You think applause
Can silence thoughts?
The louder they cheer,
The louder I get.
I’m the reason
You question compliments.
The reason
You can’t celebrate wins.
The reason
You apologize
For existing.
[Bridge]
(Music almost disappears.)
Then another voice…
Very quietly…
Who told you
That I appointed you judge?
Silence.
[Final Chorus]
[(Choir joins)]
You were never
The judge.
You were only
The witness.
Mercy
Was never yours
To give.
Or take.
The verdict
Has already been written.
Grace.
[Outro (Whisper)]
Case…
Dismissed.
[(Ticking clock stops.)]
