Lyrics:

If you disrespect everybody that you run into
How in the world do you think anybody's supposed to respect you?
If you don't give a heck about the man with the Bible in his hand
Then just get out the way and let the gentleman do his thing
You're the kind of gentleman that wants everything his way
Take the sheet off your face boy, it's a brand new day
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself, ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot
Respect yourself
Respect yourself

If you're walking 'round thinkin' that the
World owes you something 'cause you're here
You're going out the world backwards
Like you did when you first come here
Keep talkin' 'bout the President wanna stop evolution
Put your hand on your mouth when you cough, that'll help the solution
And you're cursing 'round women and you don't even know their name
And you're dumb enough to think it'll make you a big ol' man
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself, ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
