Respect The One You Love

We can't go on this way
Respect the one you love

Respect

How can I make you understand that as a woman
I deserve so much better?
It's not my pride, it's self-respect
I know my worth and I have standards as a woman
You don't mistreat the one you love
Love is not selfish or unkind
You better get your act together
If you want me in your life

Respect the one you love I'm the best woman in your life
You better chill with all your selfish egoistic pride
Respect the one you love I'm the best woman in your life
If you don't change your ways
I'll be gone for good, don't waste my time
Respect the one you love
Respect the one you love

Respect

You took my love for granted thinking
I would sit here and just put up with your nonsense
I'm not about the foolish games
I know my worth and I have standards as a woman
You don't mistreat the one you love
Love is not selfish or unkind
You better get your act together
If you want me in your life

Respect the one you love I'm the best woman in your life
You better chill with all your selfish egoistic pride
Respect the one you love I'm the best woman in your life
If you don't change your ways
I'll be gone for good, don't waste my time
Respect the one you love I told you many times before
That as a man you need to do better
You need to change your ways
I know my worth and I'm not settling
For less than I deserve as a woman
I need your better

Respect
Respect the one you love
It is written
That a woman came from a man's river
Not from his feet
To be step daughter
Not from his head
To be superior
But from the side
To be equal
By the heart
To be loved

I told you time and time again
That as a man you need to do better
Respect the one you love
