R.E.S.P.E.C.T. [versão 0.03]

I was the third brother of five,
Doing whatever I had to do to survive.
I'm not saying what I did was alright,
Trying to break out of the ghetto was a day to day fight.














Been down so long, getting up didn't cross my mind, I knew there was a better way of life that I was just trying to find. You don't know what you'll do until you're put under pressure.

Pimps trying to catch a woman that's weak,
Pushers won't let the junkie go free,
Woman trying to catch a trick on the street.

You can find it all in the street. In every city you find the same thing going down, Harlem is the capital of every ghetto town.

the structure of lies Installed in our minds and attempting To hold us back-We've got to take

it back. Holes in our spirit causin' tears and fears, One-sided stories for years and years and years. I'm inferior? Who's inferior? Yeah, we need to check the interior

To strangle and mangle the truth 'Cause the circle of hatred continues unless we react.
We gotta take the power back
Yeah, we gotta take the power back
Come on, come on!
We gotta take the power back
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
Uggh!
Yeah!
Take it back y'all
Take it back, a-take it back
A-take it back y'all, come on!
Take it back y'all
Take it back, a-take it back
A-take it back y'all, come on!
Uggh!
Yeah!

...eu sou a primeira e a última
Eu sou a venerada e a desprezada
Eu sou a prostituta e a santa
Eu sou a esposa e a virgem
Eu sou a mãe e a filha
Eu sou os braços de minha mãe
Eu sou a estéril, e numerosos são meus filhos
Eu sou a bem-casada e a solteira
Eu sou a que dá à luz e a que jamais procriou
Eu sou a consolação das dores do parto
Eu sou a esposa e o esposo
E foi meu homem quem me criou
Eu sou a mãe do meu pai
Sou a irmã de meu marido
E ele é o meu filho rejeitado
Respeitem-me sempre
Porque eu sou a escandalosa e a magnífica.

Whatever you confess, The feelings you express, No matter how you dress, You're different from the rest. You are the only one, the only one. Behind the bluest flame, They'll never guess your game, Your version of success Is different from the rest. You are the only one who dreams like you, You are the only one the only one

Mmmm Yeah Yeah Mmmm

You are the only one
