[Intro Vocals: Las Vegas Boulevard] All my life I've been striving Strugglin' to stay alive'n I've seen better days in my [?] R-E-S-P-ECT [Verse 1: Playboy 7] Ten years of tears Ten years of sweat Ten years of building up sweat equity and no check Ten years of homies living Ten years of death Ten years of searching through my inner self and no respect Hella Doomsdays, I done seen and hella storms But if I die today with no respect nobody mourns And all them chicks that I done been with Can't handle Doom So I have to 86 them tricks and focus on my tunes And there's some haters in my city tryin to talk us down Don't understand the concept behind this killing clowns I think it's jealousy and envy Everybody for theyself Playa hata's play theyselves, see Now I'm devilish, on that other level-ish Early Doom settle-ish, attitude ghetto-ish Mental state rebel-ish, so you hata's better wish All I want is my respect and I can handle all them jealous cliques [Chorus: Playboy 7] Respect is given where respect is due Ain't got no problem with me ain't got no problem with you A blood, a crip, we don't have to trip Just respect my clique and I'll respect yo' clique [Verse 2: Las Vegas Boulevard] Always talking bout the way I am Whenever I walk by You wanna grab your man But just a Word of advice Lady to lady I've got more self-respect Than the credit you gave me You think you know me, you think you've got me You think you shown me, but all you do is drop me If you look after me, than I'll look after you And all of us ladies will give respect that is due Wanna know why they call us hoodrats? Wanna know why they call us tricks? You can't earn your respect layin' on your back Now you know why they call ya tricks... [Verse 3: Playboy 7] I'm on a quest to cash a meal ticket and get my life straight So anything that needs to be eaten Will be ate I can't hang with the fake I'm mobbin with the true But when your from Sin City There's only a few That you can trust to a certain extent For the dead presidents Side bustas get ran off the premises See I'm a Northtown native My hoods fulla playas, hustlas, hoodrats, and gangbangas And everybody got a different complex So things get hectic when there's a conflict Can't let them hold me back Still making Doom raps Still laying Doom tracks Still puffing on that Not telling you to do that Cause this ain't the NBA, so I'mma be like me And you can play MJ Cause I'm the one and only The one and only P-I-T So gimme... [Las Vegas Boulevard] (R-E-S-P-ECT) [Chorus: Playboy 7] Respect is given where respect is due Ain't got no problem with me ain't got no problem with you Blood, a crip, we don't have to trip Just respect my clique and I'll respect yo' clique
