They Like Me (feat. Lecrae) |
| They like me |
| Forget about the color I might be |
| It’s likely they just like me |
| We different but the same |
| We covered by the blood of the King |
| They like me, they like me, they like me |
| I don’t do black music I don’t do white music |
| I do fight music unified in Christ music |
| Let’s get right to it hear the music write to it |
| From the context of a black kid fighting through it |
| Some folks said it was worldly it was too good |
| Some folks was scared of it it was too hood |
| So I took it to the places who would embrace it |
| And sometimes believe it or not it was white faces |
| Am I a sellout assimilating what’s in my head |
| No I am Cyclops homie cause all I see is red |
| People covered in the blood are my fam |
| And we don’t just relate we all related through the Lamb |
| My family tree is a lower case t |
| And we are all the same cause you need him like me |
| We different but the same and it’s likely |
| They just like me that’s probably why they like me |
| They like me |
| Forget about the color I might be |
| It’s likely they just like me |
| We different but the same |
| We covered by the blood of the King |
| They like me, they like me, they like me |
| I got blue eyes light skin and some black curls |
| Grew up the white kid in a black world |
| When ya live and ya different well the facts hurt |
| Moved to the burbs and I don’t fit in that’s worse |
| I’m just a nerd getting chased home on my bike |
| After school fight lay in my bed cry at night |
| Hate the fact that my status read poor and white |
| And all the rappers I idolize tell me that I’m never right |
| Now my skin is light and I ain’t fitting in |
| I’m on the outside of hip hop screaming let me in |
| I’m hooked up with sin hate the very skin I’m in |
| Cause every time I rhyme they like «look it’s Eminem» |
| Looking back again I’s in the worst place |
| All I had was beastie boys and third bass |
| I’m the dude who always come down in 3rd place |
| Until I heard the story of Your Life and Your Grace |
| They like me |
| Forget about the color I might be |
| It’s likely they just like me |
| We different but the same |
| We covered by the blood of the King |
| They like me, they like me, they like me |
| So on the weekend started seeking looking for the meaning |
| Heard a pastor preaching couldn’t believe just what I’m seeing |
| Walked into a church of white blacks and Puerto Ricans |
| Without a single reason they loved on this little heathen |
| And with never speaking they just showed me simply |
| That Jesus is the only one to make me sin free |
| And beauty is the only thing that’s ever skin deep |
| I was lonely but a new family is what you give me |
| So really if we claim now to love the Son |
| Why we got to segregate Sunday 10−1? |
| So much to overcome now from what’s been done |
| But if starts with me (then what?) then I’ll be the one (Okay) |
| Now ya better run I’m stepping on ya toes |
| Got ya out ya comfort zone now ya out the boat |
| If we’re a family then let’s grow now and make a home |
| Let them know you’re my brother no matter what the tone |
| They like me |
| Forget about the color I might be |
| It’s likely they just like me |
| We different but the same |
| We covered by the blood of the King |
| They like me, they like me, they like me |
