[Intro/Chorus] We are the children of the light Royal rulers of the day Takes no prisoners of the night Cause we're the love we lead the way
[Verse 1: Lecrae] Yeah, I notice when people notice me My exterior's the only way they know it's me I'm full of holes and scars, my skins marked up But qualified to light up a world of darkness. I get a walk, a little walk in the sunlight I look dirty but I'll be clean on the inside. It's revolutionaries comin' out for fellas And they can look at us strange But there ain't nothin' that they can tell us cuz!
[Chorus] We are the children of the light Royal rulers of the day Takes no prisoners of the night Cause we're the love we lead the way
[Verse 2: Sonny] Yeah, freedom rock this mic To walk right, in a dark night lighted by the sun! I'm so free that I can fly, while y'all can't even crawl, It's your fall to freedom!
In my life I count the cards, I take loss accuse the treason, And I can die for this cause, and you might just be the reason. And in order to (if I must dial) denial itself, And if you claim to be the way that means there ain't no one else. I trust it (done) there ain't no room for discussion, So if you just don't get it, Then let the just come with it! I know much more is required of all that I've been given, But if y'all claim to be alive, Then you gotta start livin', you know why!
[Chorus] We are the children of the light Royal rulers of the day Takes no prisoners of the night Cause we're the love we lead the way
[Verse 3: Dillavou] (JAH!) Yo, am I the only one, to take me out to babylon, An' him create the right an' wrong, An' him create the scriptin' sound, And that's why we stand firm upon the rock of the salvation man. And truly love the prospect, an' we hope to put out helmets on, And that is why we build upon for each and every chosen one, [???]

(J-Paul) 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, I just gotta be like you
(Verse 1- Lecrae) Yeah, 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 come through, Teach me to do the things that men do True, You showed me stuff I probably shouldn't have seen, But you rebelled and 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 And care 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, Gotta a little son now and he do whatever I do But it's something deep inside you, That tell 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, you Yeah,
(Chorus) 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, I just gotta be like you
(Verse 2) 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 because 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 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
(Chorus) 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, I just gotta be like you (Like you)
(Verse 3) 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 On fruit he should't have eaten And now look at us all out of Eden, And now look at us all that are eating, Wearing designer fig leaves by Louis Vuitton Make believe it But God sees through my foolish pride, And I'm weak life Adam another victim of Lucifer's foolish lies But then in steps Jesus, All men were created to lead but we need somebody to lead us More than a teacher, But somebody who buy us back from the darkness, 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, Not 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 to me Because being just like you is what I'm 'spose to be You said you came for the lame, I'm the lamest I made a mess you say you'll erase it, I'll take it You said you came for the lame, I'm the lamest I broke my life, but you say you'll replace it, I'll take it.
