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.
