What He Wants
[Chorus]
Careful 'bout putting your mouth on me
If you got a problem it's not with me
I'm just doing the will of my daddy
I can only be what he wants me to be
All I want to be is a child of God
That's the desire of my heart
Number one priority
Is to be what he wants me to be
[Verse 1]
Tried to be a people pleaser
But I couldn't please everybody all the time
Found it wasn't very easy
Matter of fact a couple times I almost lost my mind
And then somebody had the nerve to say
Oh, you a Christian now but what about yesterday
That very moment I realized
All I want to be is pleasing in my daddy's eyes
[Chorus]
Careful 'bout putting your mouth on me
If you got a problem it's not with me
I'm just doing the will of my daddy
I can only be what he wants me to be
All I want to be is a child of God
That's the desire of my heart
Number one priority
Is to be what he wants me to be
[Verse 2]
I'm not the picture perfect person
I'm not making no excuse
But then again I'm still rehearsing
I'm not looking for no credit
But there's always that one
That won't let me forget it
Always the one in the glasshouse
To put me in a platinum fubu jumpsuit with the back out
So if you comin' to remind me
All I gotta do is look ahead and put the past behind me
[Chorus]
Careful 'bout putting your mouth on me (On me)
If you got a problem it's not with me (Not with me)
I'm just doing the will of my daddy
I can only be what he wants me to be (I can only be)
All I want to be is a child of God (All I want to be)
That's the desire of my heart (My heart)
Number one priority
Is to be what he wants me to be
[Chorus]
Careful 'bout putting your mouth on me (Be careful)
If you got a problem it's not with me (Not with me)
I'm just doing the will of my daddy (I'm just doing)
I can only be what he wants me to be
All I want to be is a child of God (All I want to be)
That's the desire of my heart
Number one priority
Is to be what he wants me to be
[Bridge]
I won't worry 'bout a thang, thang (Worry 'bout a thang)
I won't play into the same games (I won't play into these games)
But I'm gonna rise above, above
Pay a hater back with love, love
I'm gone let the drama slide, slide (Let it slide)
Push my feelings to the side, side (Push 'em to the side)
I'm old enough to know, know
We all reap what we sow, sow (Be careful)
[Chorus]
Careful 'bout putting your mouth on me (Oh, yeah)
If you got a problem it's not with me (Not with me)
I'm just doing the will of my daddy
I can only be what he wants me to be
All I want to be is a child of God
That's the desire of my heart
Number one priority (Number one priority)
Is to be what he wants me to be
[Chorus]
Careful 'bout putting your mouth on me
If you got a problem it's not with me
I'm just doing the will of my daddy
I can only be what he wants me to be
All I want to be is a child of God (Child of God)
That's the desire of my heart
Number one priority (Number one)
Is to be what he wants me to be
[Chorus]
Careful 'bout putting your mouth on me (It doesn't matter what you say)
If you got a problem it's not with me
I'm just doing the will of my daddy ('m gonna do what he tells me to do)
I can only be what he wants me to be
All I want to be is a child of God
That's the desire of my heart
Number one priority
Is to be what he wants me to be
[Chorus]
Careful 'bout putting your mouth on me
If you got a problem it's not with me
I'm just doing the will of my daddy
I can only be what he wants me to be
All I want to be is a child of God
