I just wanna be like you

Walk like talk like even think like you

The only one I could look to

You're teaching me to be just like you

Well I just gotta be like like

I just gotta be like you

Dear Uncle Chris Uncle Keith Uncle Ricky

Before the Lord get me I gotta say something quickly

I grew up empty since my daddy wasn't with me shoot

I wasn't picky I'd take any male figure you

Stepped in at the right time

It's 'cuz of you that I write rhymes

You probably never knew that

I loved the way you used to come through

Teach me to do the things that men do

True

You showed me stuff I probably shouldn't have seen

But you had barely made it out your teens

Took me under your wings

I wanted hats I wanted clothes just like you

Lean to the side when I rolled just like you

Didn't care if people didn't like you

You wanna bang I wanna bang too

Skyline pyru

If you would've died I would've died too

You went to prison got sick lost your pops

Yeah I cried too

You never know who's right behind you

I gotta a little son now and he do whatever I do

But it's something deep inside you

That tell you it's gotta be more than doing what other guys do

They had nobody there to guide you

But I followed your footsteps and this shouldn't surprise you

You realize you You realize you you

Yeah

I just wanna be like you

Walk like talk like even think like you

The only one I could look to

You're teaching me to be just like you

Well I just gotta be like like

I just gotta be like you (like you)

Now all I see is money cars jewels stars

Womanizers tough guys guns knives and scars

Drug pushers thugs strippers fast girls fast life

Everything I wanted and everything I could ask life

If this ain't living and they lied well

I guess I married an old wives' tale

Wow fail

I don't know another way to go

This is the only way they ever showed

I got this emptiness inside that got me fighting for approval

Cause I missed out on my daddy saying way to go

Ain't get that verbal affirmation or know how to treat a woman

Know how to fix an engine to keep the car running

So now I'm looking at the media and following what they feed me

Rap stars trap stars whoever wants to lead me

Even though they lie they still tell me that they love me

They say I'm good at bad things at least they proud of me

I just wanna be like you

Walk like talk like even think like you

The only one I could look to

You're teaching me to be just like you

Well I just gotta be like like

I just gotta be like you (like you)

I was created by God but I ain't wanna be like Him

I wanna be Him

The Jack Sparrow of my Caribbean

I remember the first created being

And how he shifted the blame on his dame

For fruit he shouldn't have eaten

And now look at us all out of Eden

Wearing designer fig leaves by Louis Vuitton

Make-believing

But God sees through my foolish pride

And how I'm weak like Adam another victim of Lucifer's lies

But then in steps Jesus

All men were created to lead but we needed somebody to lead us

More than a teacher

But somebody to buy us back from the darkness

You can say He redeemed us

Taught us that real leaders follow God

Finish the work 'cuz we on our job

Taught us not to rob

But give life love a wife like He loved the Church

Without seeing how many hearts we can break first

I wanna be like you in every way

So if I gotta die everyday

Unworthy sacrifice

But the least I can do is give the most of me

Cause being just like you is what I'm s'pose to be

They said you came for the lame

I'm the lamest

I made a mess but you say you'll erase it

I'll take it

They say you came for the lame

I'm the lamest

I broke my life but you say you'll replace it

I'll take it

(I just gotta be like be like be like I just gotta be like youI just gotta be like you)
