RESPECT FOR YOUR FELLOWMEN
Written by Yvette Gittens
This generation better look out
Itâs not about the pushing of your mouth
It shows by the way they speak and treat their fellowmen
Mothers, fathers, elders and children
Some parents scold their children by using obscene words
And when these children grow up
We wonder why all the fighting, killing and disrespect
What a generation oh my heart yearns
They go to the workplace and still no respect
They cause endless distress and uneasiness
Talking to their co-workers, how they feel like
This negative attitude is definitely not right
Respect builds character and tells who we are
It sets good standards and raises the bar
With it we should try to be consistent and wise
Be forgiving and true and not be in disguise
Stop the gossiping and stop the lies
Speak less of self and try to speak more of Christ
I know Heâll cleanse you and change your ways
And youâll be a better person down through lives years.
