They call me Mister Tibbs

Verse 1
When it was crumbs, scraps, pennies, pats, everything was fine
You treat me like a loaded gun when I ask for what is mine
Always try to dim my light no matter how bright I shine
But I've got my standards that I'm never letting die

Verse 2
And I bleed 'cause of pride, you're not bleedin' me dry
Cannot abide, I got my head on a swivel this time
Why would I let you just twist it aside
I catch a fever when they're aiming at the way I live my life

Chorus
These are my standards, I ain't gon' never, never let 'em die
I ain't gon' never, never let 'em die
I ain't gon' never, never let 'em die
These are my standards

Verse 3
When I called for help, you didn't pick up your phone
You saw my kingly potential so you kept me from my throne
The truth is, I'm demonized for standing my own ground
So you push me to the deep end, hoping I drown

Bridge
But I've got my–
I've got my bee-bm, bah-bm, bee-a-bm, bee-day
Anybody hold you to it, I don't need you
Ah, di-ba-boo, ooh

Chorus
I ain't gon' never, never let 'em die
I ain't gon' never, never let 'em die
I ain't gon' never, never let 'em die
These are my standards

Verse 4
'Cause I won't let you treat me so unfair
Don't I deserve my God-given share
Whether I've got a dollar or I'm a billionaire
These are my standards, I ain't gon' never, never let 'em die

Outro
Because of pride, losing my spine Hey Hey
I got my head on a swivel this time Hey
Why would I let ya Why would I let ya
I catch a fever when they're aiming at the way I live my life
Hey These are my standards that I'm never letting die
