What if Jesus wrote "Imma Be?"


The Black Eyed Peas have a song called "Imma Be" which, as of this writing, is the number one song downloaded on Itunes. It's a catchy song about how great the Black Eyed Peas are. Kinda got me thinking about what it would be like if Jesus wrote Imma Be. This is what I thought it may look like:

Imma be, Imma be, Imma, Imma, Imma be

Imma be, Imma be, Imma, Imma, Imma be

Imma be, Imma be, Imma, Imma, Imma be



Imma be, be, be, be, Imma, Imma be

Imma be, be, be, be, Imma, Imma be

Imma be, be, be, be, Imma, Imma be



Imma be on the last level

Imma be goin low to defeat the devil

Imma be chillin' with my backwater crew

Imma be doing for you what you cannot do



Imma be workin on a fix

for all the hardship, and Imma be sippin’ that cup

'Cause Imma be beaten and bruised

Imma be lost so that you cannot lose



Imma be steppin outa my home, lookin' forsaken and alone

Imma be dysfigured and spent

Imma be showin’ you what true love meant

Imma be mocked and scorned, a king thats wearin a crown of thorns



Imma, Imma do it this way

Imma, Imma, Imma, Imma do it that way

This is Jesus Christ and Imma, Imma be the price to pay

takin‘ on hell, in the grave I will lay.



Imma be, Imma be, Imma, Imma, Imma be

Imma be, Imma be, Imma, Imma, Imma be



Poor baby, quick, quick, Imma, Imma, Imma be

Lost everything, check me out, be

Imma be, Imma be nothin, not complainin

Be, be, Imma, Imma be, Imma be, be, be



Imma, Imma be, Imma be savin’ her

Imma, Imma, Imma be, Imma be, be, be, Imma, Imma be



Imma be the judge of all the earth

only cause I refused to be first

Imma be the Lord of the universe

Imma be reversing that curse.



Imma be bringing in millions

whoops i mean billions cause people are my prized possess-i-on

Imma be your brother, runnin after lost men

Imma be welcoming you because i was forsaken.



Humanity in debt, eternally bouncin' them checks

So I spilled my blood so death can’t collect


Imma be, Imma be, Imma, Imma, Imma be poor, baby

Imma be, Imma be, Imma



Imma be sick with your sin, but the goal is to be comin back again

Imma be the future, Imma be the whole

'Reason why you even wanna make me the new goal

'You can see me while I'm raised, death gave me its worst but I was unfazed.



Imma be making a new earth, giving you a second birth

Imma be poppin' that bubbly, new heaven is comin’ here shortly

Oh, and this will last forever, partyin' with you and me together

On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and



Imma be lovin' like this, wat

Y'all still misunderstandin, but

Why don't you look and see

The difference between me and a Black Eyed Pea



If you follow me it wont be popula’

Respect and admiration may be far from ya.

but you will find a new glory, a myriad

of believers who lived the only true story.



Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be

Imma be givin’ up the good life, Imma be so you get God’s life.

Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be

Imma be givin’ up the good life, Imma be so you get God’s life


Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be

Imma be givin’ up the good life, Imma be sin so you get God’s life

Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be

Imma be givin’ up the good life, Imma be sin so you get God’s life


Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be


Imma, Imma,

Imma be preparing a place that is infinite

a place no imagination can compare it

So now you know what I have done, hangin’ on a cross. sin. done.

Came to life on the third day, recruitin people for the last day. 



So now you have heard my voice, its time to make your choice

So what’s it goin’ be, is it going to be your life or me
?
Lovin’ God, settin' you free, that's what its supposed to be

Come join my festivities, celebrate like Imma be



Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be

Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be

Imma be, Imma be, Imma be, Imma be
