Nick Sefakis - Respect (Lyrics)

Sit down for a sec and get comfortable
I have to get some things of my chest
Sometimes I feel I’m giving but I don’t get love from you
I’m always wondering what’s next ?
Then you use me and abuse me and you try to hide your ways
You think I’m clueless but I see the way you slither like a snake 
All the stress it takes a toll on me, makes me want to get away

Where is the respect?
Respect, cause I really can’t feel it so I just have to ask
Where is the respect?
Respect, what you go and give, you can expect right back
Where is the respect?
Respect, cause I can’t feel it so I just have to ask
Where is the respect?
Respect, what you go and give, you can expect right back, yeah…

So many roads that I’ve walked
Rivers that I’ve crossed
Mountains that I’ve traveled through to spread the message far
To the people that I’ve seen and the ones that I have lost
Yea just know I’ve learned a lot from you
The thing is time passes by, we can never get it back
So there’s no time to hold a grudge or go to sleep mad
You are blessed to have this moment so just wake up and know that
But for now I’m just asking

Where is the respect?
Respect, cause I really can’t feel it so I just have to ask
Where is the respect?
Respect, what you go and give, you can expect right back
Where is the respect?
Respect, cause I can’t feel it so I just have to ask
Where is the respect?
Respect, what you go and give, you can expect right back, yeah…

Where is the respect?
Respect, cause I really can’t feel it so I just have to ask
Where is the respect?
Respect, what you go and give, you can expect right back
Where is the respect?
