Be Like Jesus
You were twelve years old when your soul was born
Told a real big lie or discovered porn
And the God of love became the God of scorn
The leaders told you to, "pray some more"
And I felt that fear in a foreign land
Doing made up good for a made up man
When a girl came out no one held her hand
And I knew right then I was in a scam but
I'm still waiting
I'm waiting
For you
I wanna be like Jesus
I don't wanna be like them
I wanna look out for who needs me
And hang out with my twelve best friends
I wanna be like
You got a real sick sense of being kind
If you talk to kids about the day they die
And the loved ones that they'll leave behind
If they don't believe and they never tithe
The truth is that I am a fool
'cause I drank the juice
And I liked it too
That God could be in me and you
And there's something else when the walk is through so
I'm still waiting
I'm waiting
For you
I wanna be like Jesus
I don't wanna be like them
I wanna look out for who needs me
And hang out with my twelve best friends
I wanna be like Jesus
But not the way they'd like
I wanna square up to authority
And turn some water into wine
I wanna be like
Are you waiting?
I'm waiting too
I wanna be like Jesus
I don't wanna be like them
I wanna look out for who needs me
And hang out with my twelve best friends
I wanna be like
Told a real big lie or discovered porn
And the God of love became the God of scorn
The leaders told you to, "pray some more"
And I felt that fear in a foreign land
Doing made up good for a made up man
When a girl came out no one held her hand
And I knew right then I was in a scam but
I'm still waiting
I'm waiting
For you
I wanna be like Jesus
I don't wanna be like them
I wanna look out for who needs me
And hang out with my twelve best friends
I wanna be like
You got a real sick sense of being kind
If you talk to kids about the day they die
And the loved ones that they'll leave behind
If they don't believe and they never tithe
The truth is that I am a fool
'cause I drank the juice
And I liked it too
That God could be in me and you
And there's something else when the walk is through so
I'm still waiting
I'm waiting
For you
I wanna be like Jesus
I don't wanna be like them
I wanna look out for who needs me
And hang out with my twelve best friends
I wanna be like Jesus
But not the way they'd like
I wanna square up to authority
And turn some water into wine
I wanna be like
Are you waiting?
I'm waiting too
I wanna be like Jesus
I don't wanna be like them
I wanna look out for who needs me
And hang out with my twelve best friends
I wanna be like
