Respect Yourself

Respect yourself You got to set yourself free Respect Yourself Don't let it be Respect yourself Brother if you have found out your sweet wife spreads like butter And she says it's all because she never had love from her father She's always telling you she'll change but keeps doing just the same Got no respect, she's got no love, she's a slut who's got no shame Sister if your husband treats you like a piece of dirt Just because dinner's not ready or he can't find a clean shirt It's your life, it's just routine, it's just like daddy used to do At least he always says he's "I'm sorry" when he beats the crap out of you Is somebody is bossing you 'bout what you do and what you don't You got to take a stand and show what you will and what you won't If you feel you're stuck in a life you didn't ask for or don't deserve It's up to you to do something about it, you just got to find the nerve
