    "Just Like You," a lead single from his album Rehab, explores the impact of substitutionary male role models that pale in comparison to the perfect example found in Christ. The song gives a clear picture of what biblical manhood should really be.

      God loves you, Brooke, and He is immensely proud of you. I pray that He brings you peace and love beyond your own understanding. Trust in God’s ways, read scripture, pray regularly, and surround yourself with fellow Christians who will uplift you in your growth. You are going to be okay.

      Never stop believing in God it will more difficult as you get older because you will go through more life experiences but just never turn your back on him this world is changing and people are drifting more and more away from God and becoming more evil and immoral be the light in your generation don't listen to anyone that tells you he is not real or there.

      You’re on the right track listening to Christian rap. Give yourself to him repent of your sin. Put down everything on his shoulder, every pride, everything. Read your Bible and watch how he speak to you and change your life. I hope your doing well Brooke in Jesus name

      That's awesome that you think that, it is. But believing in Jesus Christ is truly the only way to be saved from Hell. I had to say this because I care about you and I couldn't pass your comment up knowing that your missing out on something, as you said, Beautiful. Salvation is truly amazing and beautiful, because our lives could end at any unexepecting moment, the next minute is never promised. But I can rest assured that even if my life ends when im not expecting it whatsoever, I'll be going to a place like no other. A holy and righteous place, a joyful and happy place where my Creator, and my Savior is. See Jesus Christ died on the Cross for our sins despite him knowing all the sins and horrible things we would do. That's the beauty of it. Jesus is truly Loving, Caring, Forgiving, Merciful, and Gracious that all we have to do Believe and repent of our sins, and we can have eternal life thanks to Jesus Christ's ultimate sacrifice I;hope that if you want to know more you will download the Bible app or buy a Bible and read from it, it has everything you need to knowGod bless you brother.

    Lyrics
    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
    Dear, 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,
    Teach me to do the things that men do
    True,
    You showed me stuff I probably shouldn't have seen,
    But you had barely made it out your teens,
    Took me under your wings
    I wanted hats, I wanted clothes just like you,
    Lean to the side when I rolled just like you
    Didn't care if people didn't like you,
    You wanna bang, I wanna bang too
    Skyline, pyru
    If 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,
    I gotta a little son now and he do whatever I do
    But it's something deep inside you,
    That tell you 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 realize you, you,
    Yeah,
    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
    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,
    I 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,
    Ain't get that verbal affirmation or know how to treat a woman,
    Know how to fix an engine,
    To 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
    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)
    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
    For fruit he shouldn't have eaten,
    And now look at us all out of Eden,
    Wearing designer fig leaves by Louis Vuitton
    Make-believing
    But God sees through my foolish pride,
    And how I'm weak like Adam, another victim of Lucifer's lies
    But then in steps Jesus,
    All men were created to lead but we needed somebody to lead us
    More than a teacher,
    But somebody to buy us back from the darkness,
    You can 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,
    Without 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 of me
    Because being just like you is what I'm s'pose to be
    They said you came for the lame,
    I'm the lamest
    I made a mess, but you say you'll erase it,
    I'll take it
    They say you came for the lame,
    I'm the lamest
    I broke my life, but you say you'll replace it,
    I'll take it.

    My dad got kicked out of his house by his dad when he was 15 and got sent to America all by him self. My mom the same. My point is thank God for letting my dad find a pastor to lead him like a dad and, thank God my mom found dad for she could be Christian. Dads are very important in life and that is why they are the head of the house.

    I also grew up miseducated; even though my mom dictated me to the Lord at birth. When Christ called me and his salvation saved me through his blood my life changed forever. I walked with Lord. Through the ups and downs. He’s always been faithful. All we need to do is be patient and wait on his spirit. This is very difficult to do when you’re in pain physically and mentally. But through trials and tribulations God build us up and gives us new armor and character with a renewed mind. It is said in the word God loves those who he disciplines. So when we face trials and tribulations. Know that God is working on us to become better men and women. He won’t allow Satan to devour us; similar to the book of Job. May the blood of our savior Christ Jesus cover and purify our sins. May his Holy Spirit guide and protect us. In the name of Jesus. Amen. 🙏🏻

    Ha .... I'm always humbled when I listen to Lecrae's lyrics, and watch his videos. I've listened and loved him as an artist for many years. I'm mow an almost 43 year old white female, and the power of the message he's conveying is just as strong, if not stronger than it was in my early 30s, and maybe younger. God loves us all as one, the human race. My heart has been broken from when I was just a small child from the Deep South and witnessed great division. As a little girl, I had to walk away from the heartbreaking words that people would say about anyone of a different color. I would even have to quietly leave the house sometimes, because certain family members were among those who spoke of what God told me was wrong in my Spirit, racism. Over the years, I became stronger in educating the elders in my family, and others around me. I'm thankful that so many family and friends have learned to overcome their bias of different ethnicities. I don't believe that just one person can change the ignorance of every one in the world, , but I have seen that properly educating one person, can, and has led to properly educating others. I'm still, and will likely always be still learning and being educated on all of these matters as well. I've tried so very hard over the past couple of decades to teach my children correctly. I never had to command them to know how awful racism and bigotry can be. It's always been through open and honest conversation, and more importantly, leading by example. Okay, I'm rereading this and realize it has the potential for me to come across as "the knower of all racial division". Please know that is not the way I feel, nor how I want to come across TO ANYONE. I just believe it takes us to individually speak about what IS RIGHT, and pass the knowledge of love to others. Myself, and everyone else, are responsible for educating ourselves as to where each individual may be coming from. I'm confident that unnecessary fear and hatred can subside, if we could jut learn to listen and hear where each person is coming from.

    Every single person who hates on lecrae only does so because they don't understand hip hop culture, and since they don't they are afraid of it regardless of what he does. He could sell all his possessions and give the money to the poor and live the rest of his life on the street preaching, and they couldn't accept him because of what he used to be. Those hypocritical christians make me sick. Please pray for all those people. It'll only take a few seconds, and it could change someones life. From a fellow artist and Christian (both because of Lecrae), blessings.

    I've been saved recently but am still struggling with some very heavy stuff with my children's mother battle with alcoholism and all the terrible outcomes that come with that life. I'm a recovering addict but am still so beaten down from my past that I feel like I'm too far gone. I know its not true but that's my everyday state of mind. I just need prayers for my children, Ryder age 6 and Blakely age 5. They are the sweetest things on this planet and they are not in a healthy environment. I feel powerless and much of the time hopeless. They are the only reason I still have a desire to be alive as I am the only positive role model and influence in their lives (as well as my Mom and step dad whom I'm so grateful for). This daily pain is so great that I'm utterly consumed from the inside out and am filled with miserable emptiness. Ever since stupid Coronavirus shut down church and AA meetings I've slid into worsening depression of panic and inevitable doom. I say I'm saved but I really mean that I'm a follower and worshipper of Jesus. I feel anguish not salvation. I just try to block the endless urge to quit. God bless you all and all I pray for is to be freed of this feeling and be blessed with serenity and peace and joy and happiness so many of you seem to be enjoying. I'm very glad you all get to experience that. I just want a month at the very least to feel that-a life time just seems impossible as I've been pursuing this for 20 years with constant relapses etc. I'm working a program of 12 steps and have a pretty solid relationship with God, and luckily my kids love jesus and enjoy praying and bragging to me about "random acts of kindness and compassion, forgiveness, and helling others." I've done that part of parenting very well I must say.

    The most powerful message I get from Lecrae's music is to be who you want to be, while being who you need to be. Don't refrain from spreading the Good News out of fear of judgment. Be the one whatever you are (athlete, musician, writer, broker, son, brother, friend) that sets a positive example for those around you. If others in your circle don't accept you for speaking from your heart, pray they have a change of heart, and then move on.. if you reach out to just one person and teach them to love and forgive, what more can you ask for?
