Testi

Respect ain't given, it's something you earn
But before all that, you gotta learn
If you don't stand for yourself inside
Don't expect the world to fall in line
I used to wait for a nod, a sign
Looking for approval that wasn't mine
Then I woke up, checked my reflection
Self-respect became my direction
I don't beg, I don't chase
I move with purpose, know my place
I set the tone when I walk in
Confidence loud before I speak again
Respect yourself first, every time
That's the code, that's the line
When you know your worth, they feel it too
Energy talks before you do
I don't fold just to be liked
I don't dim just to fit your sight
If I say it, I mean it clear
Boundaries drawn, nothing weird
I learned the hard way, lost my peace
Trying to please what don't see me
Now I move solid, head up high
No explaining why I won't comply
Respect yourself first, every time
That's the code, that's the line
When you know your worth, they feel it too
Energy talks before you do
You can hear it in the way I move
I don't need to prove what I already knew
I'm calm, I'm solid, I'm in my lane
No ego trips, no cheap fame
If you cross it once, I won't scream
I'll just step back, let you see
Silence louder than any fight
I protect my soul, day and night
I don't demand respect with noise
I let consistency make the choice
When you honor yourself inside
The world adjusts, falls in line
Respect yourself first, say it again
That's how you win before you win
Stand tall even when you're alone
That's how respect gets shown
Yeah, respect ain't free, that's facts
But self-respect? Never lack
Walk like you matter, speak like you know
That's how the whole room starts to glow
Respect yourself first
Always.
