When living like you is want I want to do
I find myself being called an imposter
‘Cause I only love when I feel like
Talk about God when it’s convenient
Heck!
I’m so scared of being called a ‘Jesus Freak’
When I would rather be the coolest one on fleek
Loving you?
Pssst! That’s easy!
Loving them?
Do I really have to?
See I know you died for my sins
But every day I feel like I’m nailing you to the cross
By the lies and pretence I play like candy crush
Help me Lord!
Now that’s my heart cry
I realize I’m no superhuman
Even though I have the supernatural genes
In my blood
Flowing from the blood which spilled on the cross
Now how do I,
A child of the king
Live on earth with no authority?
How do I rule and reign with Christ
When my eyes still lust after the kingdom of the world?
I want to live like you
Now that’s more than just a prayer
Cause I know living like you
Means loving others the way you do
Staying at peace with all men like you
Withdrawing from the crowd and fame
To go to the Father, hallowing His name
I realize I can’t live like you on my own
They can see through my facade
So please help me
A mere mortal
Made immortal
By the touch of immortality
Keeping me above immorality
Help me not to get entangled in the web
That I forget to ‘X’ the page
And turn to you for a clear reboot
Unclutter my soul and ‘shift + Del’ my messes
I want to be like you in every single way
And if I have to die everyday
Help me pay the prize
Cause being just like you is all I want to be
