JayEss - I Was Just Like You

[Verse 1]
And I was just like you, yeah I used to smoke on the weed
Get high and drunk for no reas, on road getting up to no good
In the hood with the peeps, the robberies n crooks n the streets
And I was just like you, yep I used to curse on the mic
Blaze youths and chat bear hype, degrade our women
I'm giving you a clear insight of my life, I'm making it right
Yeah I'm taking it high, all the way and ain't going back
Chat pshh I ain't doing that, bring your words to hurt me and my boys coz it ain't doing jack, my life is now clean from the strap
.... yep my whole vision was blurred, talk sense and give em that word, stand out like a nerd in the class ... case closed, this verse is adjourned

[Verse 2]
And I was just like you, yeah blud, just like you
A bum getting up to no good, no vision
On road doing things I shouldn't, aka a first class ticket to prison
Just like you and your boys in a corner, packing the ends hot like a sauna
And yes I've been chased by feds, I witnessed my boy get rushed and get sliced by a ...
.. so I'm point for this though I must stash (mustache) like Hitler
I was glued to the world like a sticker, and found myself always around bums like a nicker
Just like you, if this don't relate still intake the state my brain went thru
I'm like some set free from the devil's grip and can't afford to slip

[Verse 3]
And I was just like you, yeah I used to curse on the regs
Have sex with girls 'fore we weds, still I believed in God
But never followed the word that He said, which led me to be misled
And I was just like you, I was lost in the world, alone and I don't need any girl
I don't need any world just a Bible a church and the Lord
And music, my word is my sword, my word is my weapon
You reckon that I'm a rabbi and this lesson and questions
But leaving you guessing, no need to be stressing
It's deep, you won't get it in a session
His words lead to progression, coz it was like ..
Material thoughts in my head, but the world's temporary coz that's what He said
We're here to now serve Him, that's why He bled
On the cross, then raised from the dead
