Pride
Seeking respect you sacrifice pride
respect only comes if there's pride inside
they lose respect and you lose pride
there's only respect if there's pride inside
What is respect if people make you chase it
run you in hoops to show where your place is
sacrifice your pride so they see your uses
they use and high five their respect is useless
You're seeking respect you're denied until rich
no way I say aint no chasing twit
if that’s how it works by sacrificing pride,
forget your respect I’ve worth inside
