Just Like You Lyrics - Rehab - Lecrae

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 'cause 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, 

And 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 

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 got 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

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 

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, 

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, 

And get that verbal affirmation on know how to treat a woman, 

Know how to fix an engine, 

That keep the car running 

So now I'm looking at the media and I'm 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 'cause 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 every day 

Unworthy sacrifice 

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

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

They say 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. 

Be like, be like, I just gotta be like, be like. 

I just gotta be like you...)
