You, I don't appreciate you telling me the way that I should live 

No, I think the choices you've laid out for me, the end is negative 

So, take all your imagery and ideology, yes I'll be fine 

When you go, I'd rather not display my physical I'd rather use my mind 

You act like all I am to be is, just a sexy, sexy thing 

Just a showpiece for all to see like a Bentley or your diamond ring 

I know that I am more than that (don't believe the hype) 

The One who made the stars and sun gave meaning to my life 



Ohhh, I don't need you to define my b-e-a-u-t-y 

I'd rather draw the line 

Ohhh, I don't need you on my team, what you've selling's a pipe dream 

And I don't need it baby 



Hey! It seems a shame to me I've been reduced to an object of lust and hate 

No way! Please understand that I refuse to be simply a height and weight 

This day, somewhere we've lost the value of what a woman is supposed to be 

A queen, respected and defined by her creator, size 24, size 10, or size 3 

You act like all I am to be is, just a sexy, sexy thing 

Just a showpiece for all to see like a Bently or your diamond ring 

I know that I am more than that (don't believe the hype) 

The One who made the stars and sun gave meaning to my life 



It's my choice and I will decide, I won't let you destroy my pride 

I'm no showpiece for you to hide, and lose all that I am inside 

God made me and I'm beautiful, I won't dress like that kind of girl 

R-e-s-p-e-c-t ,see that's the way that you got to look at me
