Well I was once like you
I wanted to
Be just like you
All the things I'd do
Followed you
The things I said
The things I'd do
Dont do it again
And I wont hear
And I wont see
What you say
Say to me
I want respect
Say nothing left
I hold my own
I hold my
Wanted to be just like you
My style my hair
Just like you
But I know now
To be a man
Must be myself
From where I stand
And I wont see
And I wont hear
What you say
Say to me
I want respect
Won't take the thing around
I want respect
I want respect
You know when I was a kid
Belonging felt real good
But having respect
Well that feels even better
