[00:06.50]
[00:25.13]I just wanna be like you,
[00:27.17]Walk like, talk like, even think like you
[00:30.94]The only one I could look to
[00:33.18]You're teaching me to be just like you
[00:37.64]Well I just gotta be like, like
[00:40.83]I just gotta be like you
[00:43.82]
[00:48.05]Dear, Uncle Chris, Uncle Keith, Uncle Ricky,
[00:51.16]Before the Lord get me, I gotta say something quickly
[00:54.13]I grew up empty since my daddy wasn't with me, shoot,
[00:57.53]I wasn't picky I'd take any male figure you
[01:00.57]Stepped in at the right time,
[01:02.82]It's 'cuz of you that I write rhymes
[01:05.22]You probably never knew that
[01:06.61]I loved the way you used to come through,
[01:08.79]Teach me to do the things that men do
[01:11.00]True,
[01:12.02]You showed me stuff I probably shouldn't have seen,
[01:14.78]But you had barely made it out your teens,
[01:16.99]Took me under your wings
[01:18.50]I wanted hats, I wanted clothes just like you,
[01:21.45]Lean to the side when I rolled just like you
[01:24.45]Didn't care if people didn't like you,
[01:26.83]You wanna bang, I wanna bang too
[01:28.95]Skyline, pyru
[01:30.54]If you would've died, I would've died too,
[01:32.77]You went to prison, got sick, lost your pops,
[01:35.51]Yeah, I cried too
[01:36.67]You never know who's right behind you,
[01:38.84]I gotta a little son now and he do whatever I do
[01:42.64]But it's something deep inside you,
[01:44.88]That tell you it's gotta be more than doing what other guys do,
[01:48.42]They had nobody there to guide you
[01:50.70]But I followed your footsteps and this shouldn't surprise you,
[01:54.33]You realize you, You realize you, you,
[01:58.44]Yeah,
[01:58.92]
[01:59.13]I just wanna be like you,
[02:03.33]Walk like, talk like, even think like you
[02:06.96]The only one I could look to,
[02:09.45]You're teaching me to be just like you
[02:13.70]Well I just gotta be like, like
[02:16.88]I just gotta be like you (like you)
[02:19.82]
[02:23.36]Now all I see is money, cars, jewels, stars
[02:27.21]Womanizers, tough guys, guns, knives, and scars,
[02:30.19]Drug pushers, thugs, strippers, fast girls, fast life
[02:33.23]Everything I wanted and everything I could ask life
[02:36.52]If this ain't living and they lied well,
[02:38.77]I guess I married an old wives' tale
[02:41.16]Wow, fail
[02:42.64]I don't know another way to go,
[02:44.79]This is the only way they ever showed
[02:47.07]I got this emptiness inside that got me fighting for approval
[02:50.47]Cause I missed out on my daddy saying, way to go,
[02:52.93]Ain't get that verbal affirmation or know how to treat a woman,
[02:56.31]Know how to fix an engine, to keep the car running
[02:59.29]So now I'm looking at the media and following what they feed me,
[03:03.20]Rap stars, trap stars, whoever wants to lead me
[03:06.21]Even though they lie they still tell me that they love me,
[03:09.09]They say I'm good at bad things at least they proud of me
[03:11.81]
[03:13.32]I just wanna be like you,
[03:15.39]Walk like, talk like, even think like you
[03:18.26]The only one I could look to
[03:21.23]You're teaching me to be just like you
[03:25.72]Well I just gotta be like, like
[03:28.82]I just gotta be like you (like you)
[03:31.96]
[03:35.50]I was created by God but I ain't wanna be like Him,
[03:38.43]I wanna be Him
[03:39.55]The Jack Sparrow of my Caribbean
[03:41.77]I remember the first created being,
[03:44.02]And how he shifted the blame on his dame
[03:46.32]For fruit he shouldn't have eaten,
[03:47.78]And now look at us all out of Eden,
[03:49.98]Wearing designer fig leaves by Louis Vuitton
[03:52.66]Make-believing
[03:53.88]But God sees through my foolish pride,
[03:56.07]And how I'm weak like Adam, another victim of Lucifer's lies
[03:59.96]But then in steps Jesus,
[04:01.64]All men were created to lead but we needed somebody to lead us
[04:06.46]More than a teacher,
[04:07.99]But somebody to buy us back from the darkness,
[04:10.61]You can say He redeemed us,
[04:12.60]Taught us that real leaders follow God,
[04:14.80]Finish the work 'cuz we on our job
[04:17.31]Taught us not to rob
[04:18.59]But give life, love a wife like He loved the Church,
[04:21.54]Without seeing how many hearts we can break first
[04:24.65]I wanna be like you in every way,
[04:26.83]So if I gotta die everyday
[04:29.13]Unworthy sacrifice
[04:30.62]But the least I can do is give the most of me
[04:33.57]Cause being just like you is what I'm s'pose to be
[04:36.54]They said you came for the lame,
[04:38.24]I'm the lamest
[04:39.18]I made a mess, but you say you'll erase it,
[04:41.35]I'll take it
[04:42.76]They say you came for the lame,
[04:44.38]I'm the lamest
[04:45.26]I broke my life, but you say you'll replace it,
[04:47.48]I'll take it.
[04:48.26]
[05:02.04](I just gotta be like... be like... be like... I just gotta be like you...I just gotta be like you)
