Texty: Dj Bobo. Celebration. Respect Yourself (2002 Version).

Refrain
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 practise what you pray don't run away
Respect yourself

Rap 1:
You don't know, no, what you don't know
Like the colours 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

Rap 2:
Don't care about what people say
Believe in yourself and go your own way
Respect - no resignation
Leave the path of isolation
Don't care about what people say
R.E.S.P.E.C.T , will never get away
Today, we stay, and pay attention anyway
Fairplay, everyday don't run away

Rap 3:
If you are 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
