Respect
(lyrics & music by N. Richmond for Mii Fiine Prints/ASCAP)
Verse 1:
Respect is given
When Respect is Earned
Respect me first
And I'll Respect you in Return
Neglect respect
And, watch the tables turn
Cuz, respect is like a match
It’ll get you burned
When respect ain’t appreciated
Respect needs praise
Ignore my respect
I’ll send your memory to the grave
Cuz I live for my integrity
And, will die respected
I refuse to lose
Once my time is invested
But, if you waste my respect
By acting all outta line
Respectfully, I’ll drag ya ass to the foul line
I decree to a degree
The pedigree I fucks wit
If that ain’t you
Then, you’s a bitch I don’t respect
This ain’t a lingo, a catchphrase
It’s merely truth
Cuz, my respect
Chews fools
And, it helps loosen a new tooth
The respect that I live by
Is the respect they remember
When I say bye
Chorus:
I live for mine
Die for mine
And, I give of mine
And I take my
(R-E-S-P-E-C-T me
R-E-S-P-E-C-T me)
So give me mine
I earned mine
But, you gon learn now
I need mine
(R-E-S-P-E-C-T me
R-E-S-P-E-C-T me)
Verse 2:
I’m never ass kissin’
Respect is infamously
Spelled out by the Queen
So, you gon’ R-E-S-P-E-C-T me
If this is a calling
You ain’t cut out for
Respect my house
And, find the fucking door
Cuz, I’m the big one, you pions
I pee on, and leave on
So, respect this fresh
That we on
Never needed to apologize
Respect that
This is the goal of the haters
But, they never reaching that
Should I even speak of that?
May you busters catch the back hand
I’d probably be your boss
Even if I wasn’t rappin’
They say I talk big talk, but dammit I stroll it
I’m in control, on my Damita Jo shit
This was the genesis, that Nas shit, get rocked wit
Pass another round, and respect my damn office
Ne’ Richa, the LiteShado, signing off of this
Chorus:
I live for mine
Die for mine
And, I give of mine
And I take my
(R-E-S-P-E-C-T me
R-E-S-P-E-C-T me)
So give me mine
I earned mine
But, you gon learn now
I need mine
(R-E-S-P-E-C-T me
R-E-S-P-E-C-T me)
(repeat)
