Respect It

Ay, ay, turn me up, turn me up Ay, ay, turn me up, turn me up
Say I'ma make them respect it, to build a never neglected
Broke niggas buyin' my CD, I hate it, gettin' rejected

Catch me all in the videos, half of them I directed
Takin' this music further than half these niggas expected
Yeah, I said look
I said look

Yeah, yeah, I said look
One more time
Look, I'ma make them respect it, to build a never neglected
Broke niggas buyin' my CD, I hate it, gettin' rejected

Catch me all in the videos, half of them I directed
Takin' this music further than half these niggas expected
Look, they gotta respect my grindin', they gotta respect my mind
I refuse to be like they cop, workin' harder and harder

To make sure the family fine, it's really no perfect time
Really no perfect rhyme, I'm tryna speak for the people
Understand that we equal, understand no one's perfect
But make sure the person's worth it, dreams of fallin' in love

But I ain't callin' it love, usually it's just a game
You feel like you all in love anyway, ay
Let's go back to 93, when my momma and my daddy had me
Gladly, Birmingham, Alabama, how could I forget my birthplace

Momma got up outta there, she said it was the worst place, uh
Moved to California, that's where I started rappin
Momma started trappin', shit, she had to make it happen
Better her than you, than you

You can never fathom what the family's gone through
At least we got each other, well
I wouldn't have shit if I didn't have my mother
I wouldn't have this drive if I didn't have my brother

Seein' him in pain, the reason I can't complain
I couldn't wait to seal my fate
So much on my plate, can I handle all of this weight
Followin' my dreams, I decided to keep straight

Real ones gon' feel me, the fake, they cannot relate
I'm better off on my own
At the end of the day, it's a fact I'ma die alone
At the end of the day, you cannot depend on a soul

Higher pressure, you feel it, it really will take a toll, my nigga
But I'ma make him respect it
Ha, yeah
Said I'ma make him respect it

Yeah, one more time
Said I'ma make him respect it, so better never neglect it
Broke niggas buyin' my CD, I hate it, gettin' rejected
Catch me all in the videos, half of them I directed

Takin' this music further than half these niggas expected
Look, yeah, I said look
I said look, yeah, yeah
I said look, one more time

Said I'ma make him respect it, so better never neglect it
Broke niggas buyin' my CD, I hate it, gettin' rejected
Catch me all in the videos, half of them I directed
Takin' this music further than half these niggas expected

Look
Thanks for watching
