🎵 “I Don’t Care About Your Degree” (Part 2: Respect Still Missing) 🎵

(R&B / Hip-Hop • Ann Marie-inspired energy, attitude & ad-libs)

(Yeah…)

(Mmm…)

Here we go again…

You still talkin’ ‘bout them degrees?

(Haha!)

Girl, ain’t nobody ask you all that…

MTV, HIV, DVD,

ABC, BET, PS3

(Haha!)

MTV, HIV, DVD,

ABC, BET, PS3

(What?)

Every conversation somehow

Come back to your résumé

(What?)

You be flexin’ all your achievements

Every single day

(Okay…)

Got a wall full of trophies,

Got a shelf full of awards

But you still got an attitude

People can’t ignore

You got honors, scholarships,

Extra credit too

(Ayy)

But kindness ain’t a class

That you ever made it through

(Huh?)

You keep talkin’ like you better,

Like the world owe you a seat

Meanwhile everybody whisperin’

About how you treat people

MTV, HIV, DVD,

ABC, BET, PS3

(Haha!)

Girl, you can list the alphabet

All the way to Z

But if respect ain’t in the room

Then what you talkin’ ’bout to me?

(What?)

I still don’t care about your degree

(Nah)

I care about your energy

(Yeah)

You can be the smartest person

Anybody ever seen

(Ooh)

But if you rude for no reason

What that really mean?

(Huh?)

I still don’t care about your degree

I care about that R-E-S-P-E-C-T

(Sing it!)

MTV, HIV, DVD,

ABC, BET, PS3

(Haha!)

MTV, HIV, DVD,

ABC, BET, PS3

(Yeah!)

Look—

Book smart, that’s cool,

I ain’t hatin’ on success

(Facts)

But don’t use your education

Just to make somebody less

(Huh?)

You can teach a whole lesson,

Write a whole thesis

Still got people rollin’ eyes

Every time you start speakin’

(Haha!)

Got knowledge in your brain

But your heart need work

Respect ain’t automatic

Just because you wear a shirt

With your title on the front

And your name in bold print

Real leaders lift people up—

That’s the whole point

MTV, HIV, DVD,

ABC, BET, PS3

(Ayy!)

MTV, HIV, DVD,

ABC, BET, PS3

(Haha!)

Mmm…

A little kindness go far

(Ooh)

Don’t matter if you’re drivin’

Or you’re sittin’ in a star

(Yeah)

Everybody wanna feel seen

Everybody wanna feel heard

Sometimes the smartest thing

Is watchin’ your words

MTV, HIV, DVD,

ABC, BET, PS3

(What?)

Girl, you can have all them letters

Still don’t impress me

(Nah!)

I still don’t care about your degree

(Nah, nah)

I care how you treat people honestly

(Yeah)

You can have ten diplomas

Hangin’ proudly on display

(Ooh)

But respect gon’ beat credentials

Every single day

(Ayy!)

I still don’t care about your degree

I care about that R-E-S-P-E-C-T

(Sing it!)

MTV, HIV, DVD,

ABC, BET, PS3
