K-Rino - Respect lyrics

[talking:]

Listen, we gon talk about a word

That we don't see and hear too much, too often

Respect, yeah

[K-Rino:]

Yeah you ain't gotta like me, that statement is true

But respect is when people see you, when they act like they do

Stripes don't come, from talking all hard

It's a whole lot of hard talkers, up in the graveyard

Listen shady cats, I'll never respect em

People pull stunts on you, then get mad when you check em

I send love, to my real O.G.'s that died

It's some dead cats I respect, more than ones who alive

For real, fools recording these gangsta joints

Lying on your records, trying to score some gangsta points

Nothing but fake thugs, shooting make believe slugs

Imagine every dope dealer, selling invisible drugs

Respect, ain't how many laws you broke

How many times you went to jail, how much weed you smoke

How many cars you got, how many diamonds up in your teeth

If you ain't real, you could still lay face up in the street listen

[Hook:]

(you gon respect me), long as I'm rolling with the God

Partna, I don't need nobody to protect me

People pulling funny moves, just to spite me

It might be jealousy, you ain't gotta like me but

(you gon respect me), and if I die

Real G I garuntee, that the streets'll resurrect me

Be who you are, things'll fall into place

Disrespect the game, watch it blow up in your face

[K-Rino:]

See that's what's wrong with America, we plays appearances people stare at ya

And judge, without decifering the fabric of your character

Everybody in the hood, dealing with issues

The same man you criticize, you couldn't walk a yard in his shoes

How you gon brag, cause you went to jail

Your lil' mama spent your bail, and never sent you mail

If she was really down, she would represent you well

Soon as you got in there, they poked you out and bent your tail

You can't persecute these youngsters, it's rough getting older

They get high, because it's hard to face that dirty world sober

But criticizing, ain't gon help they condition

Instead of turning on em, sit 'em down quit talking and listen

They turn to the streets, cause it ain't no love at home

Thinking hustling is fly, bragging and get swoll in the dome

But a real G ain't gotta glorify, nothing they do

Cause if you really true to the game, the streets gon glorify you listen

[Hook]

[K-Rino:]

Feel what I'm saying, and try to understood good

Ask yourself a question, what's worse losing some money or your manhood

Don't be counterfeit, spit what you live

When it come to respect, remember that you get what you give

A lot of females be tripping, and some of you grown

Dressing like hookers, then get mad when men come at you wrong

Some of y'all be trying to get attention, with your behind

Don't understand that you can, attract a man with your mind

If your body, is all you got to offer a brother

What's gon be left, when y'all get tired of laying up with each other

I don't consider you a hoe, but that's the image you show

Cause I'm knocking you down, and we just met two hours ago

But I can't talk about nobody, without checking me first

I ain't no better than her, if anything I'm worse fa sho

Show me respect, then nothing'll come of it

Just make sure, that you don't put a D-I-S in the front of it listen

[Hook]

[talking:]

Yeah, listen to your boy for a second man

The word respect means, the state of being regarded

With difference or esteem, willingness to show consideration

Or appreciation, polite expressions or consideration

Or difference, in other words man just

Give people, what you would want man

Treat people, like you would wanna be treated man

You know I'm saying, don't look at a person's situation

And judge 'em off, what you see

Judge that person, off his intentions you know I'm saying

Cause what appears, to the eye

Might not be, what's really going down

So in other words man, respect people mind you feel me
