lirik lagu eldee the don - intro (respect me)
i can’t understand
why you dey fall my hand
they claim to be friends
but they just pretend
they want me to frown
they want me to drown
we started with love
they hating me now
i can’t understand
why you dey fall my hand
(you ain’t got to love me but you must respect me)
i don came, i don seen
i don conquered
inspire the best around here
im a monster
i rap and i sing to
production is evil
a legend of sorts
a man of the people
i cam at a time when
therе wasn’t no labels
no mtv, there wasn’t no cablе
there wasn’t no airplay
for none of you locals
wasn’t no auto tune
to fix your vocals
i was just sixteen, fresh outta high school
to start a carrier, my own wasn’t as simple
moved to lagos, uni is calling
broke my heart when dad said no boston
off to unilag shock of a culture
snakes and lions, hyenas and vultures
wanted me to blend in but i ain’t a dumb one
part of me kept saying i had to be someone
important in this new sh~t hole
that i call home
the transform took time to become rome
so i stay focused i see that throne
that i will sit on when you all gone
and so i drew up a blue print
yes i planned it
power get to the top
be demanded
how ama stack money
and how ama spend it
and how ~~ life of the story of me ending
i will create a new style with trybes men
i will start a label and organize it
i will sign a couple of artists and blow up
i will fight foes who do not show up
nothing like him dog
never compare me
i did it again and again and again clearly
i had one sk!ll, one vision, one plan
one impossible task, given to one man
how ama get alaba for distribution
how ama organize my institution
many had come before looking for handouts
i took over, kicked the man out
created a genre
converted my people
from westernized sounds
and now we’re equal
to stay on top ain’t a piece of cake
its been a long time coming can you relate
i can’t understand
why you dey fall my hand
they claim to be friends
but they just pretend
they want me to frown
they want me to drown
we started with love
they hating me now
i can’t understand
why you dey fall my hand
(you ain’t got to love me but you must respect me)
they want me to frown
they want me to drown
we started with love
they hating me now
they want me to frown
they want me to drown
we started with love
they hating me now
i can’t understand
why you dey fall my hand
they claim to be friends
but they just pretend
(you ain’t got to love me but you must respect me)
