Like Christ
Flame Lyrics

She's always dancin' like every little chance she gets
The girl loves to dance every opportunity she gets

And little man can't wait to get his hands on the whip
A boy is looking forward to handling the whip, yet he is young and naive

They don't understand life nor the issue of sin
They lack knowledge and comprehension of life and the concept of sin

But they know the article and the issue that 50 was in
They are aware of the news article and the problem 50 Cent was involved in

You should hear them spit little man is always tryin' to battle rap
The young boy is eager to battle rap and showcase his lyrical abilities

I'm like follow me to the scriptures see where the battle's at
The singer suggests that the young boy should look into the Bible to understand where the real battles lie

But you can't you're watching College Hill
However, the boy cannot do so because he is distracted by watching College Hill

I guess you drop your cup and let the knowledge spill
The boy is unable to retain knowledge as he loses focus easily

I'm lookin' for the convicted to see who's new on the team
The artist searches for those who are convicted of their sins and are willing to join the team of believers

And tired of doing what they do on the screen
Those who are tired of living life as portrayed on media platforms and want to lead a better life are sought after

In other words, tryin' to see the ones that Jesus drafted
The singer aims to find individuals who align themselves with Jesus and live accordingly

No matter what round pick you were still engrafted
Regardless of the time at which one believes in Jesus, they are welcomed into his kingdom

You ain't gotta walk miles for cheesecake to be down with the squad
One does not need to put in excessive effort to be a part of the community of believers

Faith through grace will get you signed with God
Faith through God's grace and blessings will bring one closer to God

So let Him hear you say "I wanna be like Christ"
The singer encourages people to tell God that they want to emulate Jesus

He'll change the person's life, after hearin' the sinner pray
God is capable of cherry-picking a life-changing moment for those who seek to change their ways

Look at baby girl is cute as a baby doll
A young girl is adorable like a baby doll

It's hard to reach her cause she's tuned into cable now
It is difficult to communicate with her as she is glued to the television

She's watchin' videos starin' at all of the boys
The girl spends her time watching videos and looking at boys

She's a sinner she doesn't know about Jesus' joy
The girl is a sinner, unaware of the happiness that comes from knowing Jesus

Yet she knows about the clothes and the latest fashion
Despite being oblivious to Christ, she knows about fashion trends

She should be on MTV news with the latest action
The girl is well-versed in current entertainment news and trends

About what's goin' on lately in the industry
She is aware of the happenings in the entertainment industry

But she's clueless about Jesus' ministry
The girl is ignorant about the teachings of Jesus

She doesn't know her and God are still enemies
The girl is not aware that she is at odds with God because of her actions

Separated by nature now there's enmity
Because of human nature, a distance arises between God and individuals

She's so silly you should see her dance
The girl is silly, as seen by her careless attitude when dancing

Only thing that I'm prayin' is that she sees her chance
The artist's only prayer is that the girl recognizes a favorable opportunity to reconnect with God

To meet the One with the world in His hands
The artist encourages the girl to meet God, the one who holds the entire world

Personally as her Savior and start takin' a stand
She should accept God as her savior and make efforts to change her ways

Begin to advance and stop chasin' a man
She should move forward and prioritize God instead of chasing after romantic relationships

You can't claim to be a Laker rockin' white and red
Wearing white and red attire would be inappropriate for someone claiming to represent the Lakers

See those are Rockets we headed with the righteous dead
Wearing white and red means aligning with the Rockets, but believers follow the path of the righteous, who are no longer alive

That's a category mistake like a solo group
Wearing the wrong colors is like an error in categorization, similar to mislabeling a solo artist as a group

You can't take to the grave those Manolo boots
Fashion and material possessions cannot be carried beyond the grave

Advice to you look to His life and the blood that He shed
The artist recommends focusing on the life and deeds of Jesus, particularly the sacrifices he made

The sin price cost Him more than an arm and a leg
The price of sins was so high that it led to Jesus sacrificing himself

And we ain't preachin' wrap it up
The singer clarifies that he is not referring to safe sex practices

You wouldn't have to deliver if you put the package up
One would not need to worry about childbirth if they abstained from premarital sex entirely

Get it? Everybody is lookin' for somethin' to be like
Many people are searching for a figure or ideal to emulate

But other somethings are nothing unless it be Christ
However, nothing but following Christ will bring true fulfillment and understanding

The Bible instructs us we sinners and can't see light
The Bible provides guidance that despite being sinners, people are unable to comprehend righteousness on their own

Our direction is left and sinners can't see right
In their current sinful state, individuals cannot comprehend the right way to live

I can't wait til we finish and get to see Christ
The artist looks forward to the end of their earthly journey and meeting Jesus in the afterlife

Mike is retired seek the Messiah I wanna be like Christ
Even though Michael Jordan is retired, we should focus on following Jesus and living a Christ-like life

That's the only person God wants us to be like
The only figure God wants people to emulate is Jesus
