Lyrics
[Intro]
Father I stretch
Stretch my hands to you
[Verse 1]
Life like, this is what your life like
Try to live your life right
People really know you
Push your buttons like typewrite
This is like a movie
But it's really very lifelike
Every single night, right
Every single fight, right?
[Verse 2]
I was looking at the 'Gram
And I don't even like likes
I was screaming at my dad
He told me it ain't Christlike
I was screaming at the referee just like Mike
Looking for a bright light
Sigel, 'What Your Life Like'
[Verse 3]
Riding on a white bike
Feeling like Excitebike
Pressing on the gas
Supernova for a nightlight
Screaming at my dad
And he told me it ain't Christlike
But nobody never tell you
When you're being like Christ
Only ever seein' me
Only when they needin' me
Like if Tyler Perry made a movie for BET
Searching for a deity
Now you wanna see it free
Now you wanna see if we
Let's just see if three a piece
Tell me what your life like
Turn it down, a bright light
[Verse 4]
Driving with my dad and he told me it ain't Christlike
I'm just trying to find
I've been looking for a new way
I'm just really trying not to really do the fool way
I don't have a cool way
Being on my best though
Block 'em on the text though
Nothin' else next though
Not another word
Letter, picture or a decimal
Wrestling with God
I don't really want to wrestle
Man, it's really lifelike
Everything in my life
Arguing with my dad and he said it ain't Christlike
Man
[Verse 5]
You know it's like
Somebody only close who can get you like off your
I be on my
[Outro]
I woke up this morning, I said my prayers
I'm all doing good
I tried to talk to my dad
Give him some advice
He starts spazin' on me
I start spazin' back
He said that ain't Christlike
I said ahh!
