[1st Verse:]
I want ya, I need ya
I wake up first to feed ya
You´re the only one I ever really loved (you´re the man above)

I´ve been conquered and lovin´ to you
You know all the real things I´ve been through, yeah
You rescue me when everyone has let me down
Like a soldier, you protect me from what´s goin´ down
But you better remember - talk to me like a lady
I know that you ain´t crazy

[Hook:]
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)

[2nd Verse:]
Runnin´ in the streets, you are the man
But when you come home, respect who I am
Keep it gangsta ´cause you 1ne on the block
But when you step inside the door, give the key to your heart
I´m not tryna wear the pants, they fit you right
But I´m your wife so in these hands, you put your life
Hold me like your baby, treat me like your lady
´Cause I know you ain´t crazy

[Hook:]
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)

Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)

[Bridge:]
Just hold me close - I love you near
One look at you and I see so clear
The reason you won´t let me down
´Cause I feel you in my heart
It´s like I´m floatin´ way up off the ground

[Hook:]
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)

Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)
Don´t take my kindness for weakness (appreciate me)
