I Be Like
[Verse 1:]
I had a conversation with myself, I had to be honest
It’s time to face reality, and I stumble
When I spoke honestly, you never ever fail me
Even when I stumble, that’s when you tell me

[Chorus 1:]
(I be like) I just can’t do this
(I be like) I'm tired of this fight
(I be like) I'm angry and bitter
(You be like) You are not a quitter
(I be like) I don’t wanna be bothered
(And I be like) Get out of my face
(And I be like) I’m giving up today, getting up
(And You be like) And you said, I didn’t make it that way

[Verse 2:]
When my trials found me, I was all alone (I was by myself)
All of the mistakes I made, some I never owned
When I felt weak like Timothy, you were my remedy
Stubborn hands on my ears, I could still clearly hear

[Chorus 1:]
(I be like) I just can’t do this
(And I be like) I'm tired of this fight
(And I be like) Said I'm angry and bitter
(You be like) You are not a quitter
(And I be like) I don’t wanna do this
(And I be like) Let me go I have sins
(And I be like) I’m about to give in
(You be like) But I am your strength
[Chorus 2:]
(Ooh, oooh, oh...ooh)
You will never leave me, nor will you forsake me
No, no, no, no, no
(Ooh, oooh, oh...ooh)
When we were rebellious, you never fail us

[Verse 3:]
When we got delivered, from out of Egypt
Pharaoh couldn’t find us, he could not see us (he could not see)
Should have made it out in eleven days
But we kept complaining
Nothing was going our way

(And We be like) I'm tired of this manna
(And We be like) We're running out of food
(And we be like) Why did you free us?
(And You be like) Cause I make a way for you
(And we be like) I lost my job
(And we be like) I can’t take it no more
(And we be like) where do I start
(And You be like) I'll open up a new door

[Chorus 2]

[Verse 4:]
(And I be like) I want to be happy
(And I be like) I really need a friend
(And I be like) I want somebody to love me
(You be like) I'm down to the end
(And I be like) I don’t know if I could trust you
(And I be like) I don’t know if you will bring me through
(And I be like) I don’t know who to turn to
(And You be like) I’d do it again for you
[Chorus 2]

[Outro:]
(I be like) No, no, no
(And I be like) You never fail me
(And I be like) No, no, no
(You be like) You never fail me
(And I be like)
(And I be like)
