Lucky Dube Respect Lyrics
Respect by Lucky Dube
When you flash that badge
You want everyone to shiver
When you flash that badge
You want everyone to worship you
I have no time to worship human kind
I only worship the All Mighty
Through his prophets I have learn
To give respect to everything he created
I give love to those who gimme love
Love those who gimme war
I love those who hate me
I bless even those who curse me year x 2
Chorus
Gimme gimme respect
Show me show me respect.
You could be the president
You could be his deputy
You don't even have to know
My political affiliation
You don't even have to know
My religious affiliation
Respect me, for who I am
And not what I am
Nobody even cares about your dollars
Nobody even cares about your bling bling
Give love to those who give you love
Love to those who hate you
Bless even those who curse you, yeah x 2
Chorus
Gimme respect
Show me show me respect
Chorus till fade.
You want everyone to shiver
When you flash that badge
You want everyone to worship you
I have no time to worship human kind
I only worship the All Mighty
Through his prophets I have learn
To give respect to everything he created
I give love to those who gimme love
Love those who gimme war
I love those who hate me
I bless even those who curse me year x 2
Chorus
Gimme gimme respect
Show me show me respect.
You could be the president
You could be his deputy
You don't even have to know
My political affiliation
You don't even have to know
My religious affiliation
Respect me, for who I am
And not what I am
Nobody even cares about your dollars
Nobody even cares about your bling bling
Give love to those who give you love
Love to those who hate you
Bless even those who curse you, yeah x 2
Chorus
Gimme respect
Show me show me respect
Chorus till fade.
