RESPECT






RESPECT




Respect is not what it used to be
Maybe you will agree with me,
I hate it when such standards slip
This generation need to get a grip.





If you give respect you get it back
But respect is what some people lack,
They disregard how others feel
And their true nature they reveal.





This isn`t true of everyone today
But it`s a growing fact I hate to say,
Discipline has been allowed to wane
Which I think could be part to blame.





If it`s not stopped then it will spread
Like a disease that we all dread,
Respect must be taught from the start
Then only good deeds will they impart.
