Respect your body

Respect your body 
All I asked you was 
Just one thing 
Respect your body 
It is a big part of my dignity 
But you chose to trade it 
For your selfishness 
You chose to betray that 
I cherished dearly 
So I ask are you happy now 
Was it all you wanted yes 
Was it all you needed 
Life has always thought me 
To slow my trust 
That was why I could breath again now 
I told you I have moved ahead 
I couldn't decide better than this 
Life is beautiful and I don't 
Want to remain only on it dark side 
Be free to live my dear 
Be free to do all you wanted 
Be free to achieve 
all the lovers you needed 
Freedom is a blessing 




Respect your body 
I warned you to slow down 
I have you enough time to reconsider 
Your stand with me
I showed you how much better 
Life could be with true care 
I respected you always 
I listen to you always when you speak 
I hold you always and tell you 
All will be fine cos I loved you 
I stood for you when you were down 
I call you always to check on you 
When I travel 
I provided all you asked of me 
I made sure you never lack in every way 
I showed you my good heart 
I shared all I got with you 
Cos truly I loved you 
All I asked was just one thing 
Respect your body 
Cos there lays my heart beat
Yes you were my joy my pride 
I was bold to tell you all I needed 
I was truthful with my words and actions 
All you could do was trade my pride 
For your selfishness 
I once told you life is beautiful 
Now I learn my lesson again 
So be free to live yes 
Be free to fly above the clouds 9
With out me 
Be free to achieve all the 
Lovers you needed 
Freedom is a blessing
