Let's get 'emI wanna be like Jesus
I wanna be like Jesus
I wanna be - in the air
Put your hands in the airShe said "Are you that preacher of LA?"
I said "Yes ma'am, is everything ok?"
She said "Come over here, I got something to say
You shouldn't be on TV acting that way"I said "Whoa, you rather I be fake
Want me to act like I don't make mistakes
Sorry, ma'am I ain't cut that way
I gotta keep it 100 all day
And your attitude is worst than mine,
And you can be a little bit more kindAnd if you want folks to come to your church,
We all gotta do some workTo be like jesus (be like Jesus)
I wanna be
I wanna be like him
Just like him
Wanna be like Jesus
Be like Jesus
Wanna be like him
Just like himEverybody lookin' like "There he is"
They wanna remind you what you did
Don't know why some people just won't forgive
And some folks just won't let you liveOh, how could they forget what they did
Don't even remember who they did it with (shh!)
But that ain't none of my business
Let me put it just like thisI wanna be like Jesus (be like Jesus)
