Deitrick!
Let's get 'em
I wanna be like Jesus
I wanna be like Jesus
I wanna be - in the air
Put your hands in the air
She 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 kind
And if you want folks to come to your church
We all gotta do some work
To 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 him
Everybody 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 live
Oh, 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 this
I wanna be like Jesus (be like Jesus)
I wanna be
I wanna be like him
Be like him
Just like him
Wanna be like Jesus
Be like Jesus
Wanna be like him
I wanna be like him
Just like him
(I wanna be like Jesus)
(I wanna be like Jesus)
Put your hands in the air (in the air)
Put your hands in the air (in the air)
(I wanna be like Jesus)
(I wanna be like Jesus)
I wanna walk like him (walk like him)
I wanna talk like him (talk like him)
(I wanna be)
(I wanna be just like)
Great like him
Wanna give like him (give like him)
I wanna be (be just like him)
Walk like him (walk like him)
Talk like him (talk like him)
I wanna be (I wanna be, I wanna be just like the Lord)
I'm gonna get down on my knees (pray like him)
And pray like him (give like him)
(Be just like you, Lord)
I want to be just like him
Be just like him (just like him)
Be just like him
Be just like him (just like him)
(I wanna be like Jesus)
(I wanna be like Jesus)
Wanna be
I want to be just like him
Just like him
(I wanna be like Jesus)
(I wanna be like Jesus)
Be like Jesus
Just like him
(I wanna be like Jesus)
