Chorus:
Respect means to think highly of another,
Respect means to think highly of yourself.
Verse:
First you respect yourself, then share that respect with others.
Now watch as that respect returns, it's a very good thing to learn.
When you choose to be respectful, you choose good character.
You're thoughtful, fair, and courteous, you always try to do your best.
Chorus
Verse:
When you respect yourself, you want to reach out to others.
You're glad to see your friends succeed, it's a very good thing, indeed.
There's a simple rule to follow, respect it's nothing new.
You simply try to treat people the way you'd like that they treat you.
Chorus
