Jagged Edge - No Respect I respect a man raising his kids all on his own I respect a man who makes sure he takes care of home You gotta respect a man with good judgement Cause I'll be damn if someone's taking care of my kids And I respect a man who treats his woman like a queen I know you're not perfect, you ain't gotta be so mean No matter how strong she is for a woman A man should never attempt to lay his hands on her 1 - There's more to life than what happens on your block Just treat your women right and hold them at the top Gotta raise these kids and teach them, never don't you stop You ain't no man to me if you let your family starve, oh 2 - Got no respect for them dudes that hit their women and Got no respect for the fools that leave their children and I just wanna take care of my family Got no respect if you ain't tryna do the right thing Repeat 2 I respect the type of girl that tries to love a man With many flaws and broken laws but still he stands The kind of girl who turns a boy into a man The kind of girl who turns a flop into a plan No respect for those who walk through life just askin' you What you can do for them but still they hate on you It don't take no man to make that baby But yes it takes a man to raise that baby Repeat 1 Repeat 2 (2x) Fellas we gotta make a change In the way that we treat our women and our children, yes we do I hope that there's a better day Look ahead to the sky If you want a change, need a change See all that money don't, it don't really mean a thing If you can't show some love to the one's connected by your blood Cause in the end all that matters is your wife and your kids, oh yeah Repeat 2 till end
