Music Monks (International Version)

[Intro:]
Yes bredren - Aha
This ones's about brotherhood, mh. respect, and more love amongst the people
Yeah, yeah, nobody won dis respect
So check yourself, yo act so cold, see

[Chorus: Enuff]
You show respect and I respect you (Oh, boy)
You protect me, I protect you ([?])
And if you need a place to run to (Well)
Well, here's is a place you could come to

[Verse 1: Enuff]
When you leave the beatin tracks you might find yourself inna
Situation where you feel fresh like a beginner
Join us blood brother, spiritual winner
All you got to do is cut your thumb, sing ya now:

[Pre-Chorus: Enuff + Eased]
Realize the good things (Anytime)
Now you're back against the wall
Focus on the good things (Anytime)
Make the devil fall

[Chorus: Enuff]
You show respect and I respect you (Well)
You protect me, I protect you
And if you need a place to run to (Well)
What is a place you could come to?

[Verse 2: Eased]
Give me love and I will stand up strong (A true warrior)
See me burn like an endless fire
Only you can make me carry on
See that wind and that rain wanna make me die, ah
If mi no fi trust ya word, that's your story worth nuttin
Once bitten twice shy mi soul get rotten
An know that you can't get if you don't give soppm
So never ever stop, ya a fi blaze my fyah

[Pre-Chorus: Enuff + Eased]
Realize the good things (Anytime)
Now you're back against the wall (Whoya)
Focus on the good things (Anytime)
Make the devil fall

[Chorus: Enuff]
You show respect and I respect you (What is respect, yo?)
You protect me, I protect you (Whoa, whoa)
And if you need a place to run to (If you need a place to run to)
What is a place you could come to?(Yeah)

[Verse 3: Ear]
Come in here, don't stay there
Drop your bag, relax your neck
When times were tough, you've taken care
I just react, enjoy giving back
You gave me nuff things to share
Take what you like, have roots
Water and wine, soul food feeds the mood
We're of the same tribe (Oh, ya)

[Pre-Chorus: Enuff + Eased]
Realize the good things (Anytime)
Now you're back against the wall (Whoyo)
Focus on the good things (Anytime)
Make the devil fall

[Chorus: Enuff]
You show respect and I respect you (What is respect, yo?) (Well)
You protect me, I protect you (And we [?] protect, oh)
And if you need a place to run to
What is a place you could come to?

You show respect and I respect you (Respect will make you strong)
You protect me, I protect you (And if you feel that soppm wrong)
And if you need a place to run to (I'll be your shield and your [?])
What is a place you could come to? ([?])

[Outro: Sample]
You better come on in my kitchen
Well, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors
