Respect Yourself

(album: World In Motion - 1996)

Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
And you will find your way
So practice what you pray
Don't run away
Respect yourself

You don't know, no, what you don't know
Uh, like the colors of the rainbow
Respect is the name of the game
Respect yourself and you never miss your aim
If you show weakness
You gotta let them know
You don't know, no, what you don't know
If you wanna grow, say no, just go

Respect yourself
Change your mind
Respect yourself
Don't be blind
Respect yourself
And you will see the light
Respect yourself
And you will find your way
So practice what you pray
Don't run away
Respect yourself

Respect yourself
Respect yourself
You will see see the light

Don't care about what the people say
Believe in yourself and go your own way
Respect, no resignation
Leave the path of isolation
Don't care about what the people say
R-E-S-P-E-C-T will never get away
Today, we stay and pay attention anyway
Fair play every day, don't run away

Respect yourself
Change your mind
Respect yourself
Don't be blind
Respect yourself
And you will see the light
Respect yourself
And you will find your way
So practice what you pray
Don't run away
Respect yourself

If you feeling weak so deep inside
No place to run, no place to hide
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Respect your destiny
If you don't know what is right or wrong
You feel confused, and your thoughts are gone
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Respect yourself, be free

Respect yourself
Respect yourself
So practice what you pray
You will see see the light
You will see see the light

Respect yourself
Change your mind
Respect yourself
Don't be blind
Respect yourself
And you will see the light
Respect yourself
And you will find your way
So practice what you pray
Don't run away
Respect yourself

Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
You will see see the light
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Respect yourself
Don't run away
Respect yourself
