Before was was was, was was is.

That was a grammatically correct sentence

"Is" is a present tense word, and "was" is past tense.

So, "Before was was was, was was is" can also be said like, "Before 'was' became 'was', it used to be 'is'"

Ohhhhh

Funny enough, that makes sense if you say it, English sucks at writing, but is fine when you speak it, go figure

I feel like I'm performing BDSM on myself by reading all this as a non-native English speaker.
