Joyner Lucas - Just Like You (508)-507-2209 

the sad thing is that kids couldnt stand up for themselves like the kids in the video because they're worried they will get in trouble

This is really sad honestly. I'm so sorry for those who have parents like this.

Joyner: aye come over Joyners friend: nah ur kid is gonna yell at us again

He's for real saying the shit that some of us don't have the courage to say to our own parents.

Y'all think kids don't pay attention

It's sad this is the reality of sum kids.

does it hit a little too close to home for anyone else

Every child deserves a parent. Not every parent deserves a child.

Sad truth is that many parent's reactions in this scenario would be to punish their "disrespectful" and "ungrateful" children for speaking to them like that.

This shit inspired me to stop my shit and be a better dad. Sober for a year and a half. Thank you man.

a powerful much needed message for a lot of kids and adults! And just think about it.. Joyner just getting started! Yo, you in ya own lane Joyner. Keep it going!!!!

imagine your child looks up to you and says "i dont want to be anything like you" thats a different hurt 😞

“I don’t wanna smoke cancer sticks” man that broke me

This little boy was trying to watch his sponge Bob bruh don't smoke weed when the Bob is on.

Imagine ur 5 year old came at u with bars like this 🤣 Edit: wow look at them likes!!

The fact that this actually happens to a lot of kids is heartbreaking..

If my kid ever says something like this to me I'll be heart broken. Some parents gotta do better

People will miss the message of how serious this is to Little girls & little boys in this generation that are surrounded by this cycle.

On a Joyner Lucas binge after hearing 'I'm not racist'

I need someone to look up to A role model I could run to When I feel lost and I'm confused and I'm outta touch with my young roots I need confidence, all that I can get And I love you and your common sense 'Cause lately, I've been tryna live this thug life and I'm not convinced Look, I love how you handle your own Glad you are the king to your own castle You handle life when it's thrown at you Never curl up, never 'fo fragile, I need you to be here, regardless Teach me how to be there for my kids Show me how to be fearless often, I need real guidance, I am scared of options Because of you, I've got a clearer conscience Because of you, I'm not scared of monsters Because of you, I'm not afraid of failure My life was blurry, you made it clearer And God forbid, if you died now I know that I'll be well taken care of I know you'll be there waiting for me I felt that

give this man an award for saving human lives every day!

When you listen to something so good you don't even know what to say so you look in the comment section to see if anybody thought what you thought... Yeah

"I don't wanna smoke cancer sticks." I know this line hit some of y'all cuz it sure hit me

I was that kid, and it made me a better father, this song reminded me I can be a great father... Thank you Joyner. Mass truth.

This is the best shit I've heard in years. Also kinda depressing.

*when your kid goes sicko mode and spits bars at you*

I mean I heard " I'm not racist" but just one click on one of his other songs and now I'm hooked! Damn I gotta catch up!😲

Even today many people still sleep on Joyner The message of the song is so touching ❤️

Why is this the first time seeing this. It is 2020

I literally just started listening to his music today. WHAT HE CREATES ISN'T EVEN MUSIC. He's creating HEALING✨✨👑💜👍🏾

Kids with a easy life: I want to be an astronaut,bussinesman etc Kids with a difficult life: I don't want to be just like you

as a 10 year old with a mom who is in and out of my life i love this song mad respect man

Lil Pump: "Everybody want to be like me" Joyner Lucas: "I don't want to be just like you"

We need more rappers “just like u”

this man have been slept on for 2 long

Just no words ...his music is just so powerful. He's in a league of his own. You can just feel everything he's feeling thru his music. He could sing about bed bugs and make it beautiful! 😂

I love when the girl says “I don’t want to smoke cancer sticks” then the mom just start starin at the cigarette Just freakin hilarious

Who else thinks Joyner is above all those 2017 XXL Freshmen?

some people dont realize that this is a reality.

As someone who was a major alcoholic b4 my son was born this shit hits hard, I saw my dad beat my mom, and then when they we're divorced she took it out on my brother and I, I told myself I wouldn't be like with my son

Bro I like how all yours songs have an important message bro💯💯

His raps actually make sense 👏🏾👏🏾 not talking about drugs, money or nothing like that. He’s rapping about real issues and goal 😩

Joyner Lucas is the man we need to save the youth

The whole concept of this song is incredible, and the music video makes it hit even harder. What a deep song. I can imagine there are so many kids who don't know how to articulate what they're feeling because they're kids. What a concept to put words to what kids can't because of their age. I love it soooo much.

this song hit home.... how you were raised dosnt have to be how you live

Joyner Lucas is an amazing rapper, I love how he doesn’t rap about doing drugs and having sex, but the opposite. Also he is actually good and has flow.

This is an experience not just a song or a music video.

Anybody in 2024

Damn. I love the meanings behind these songs.😩

this was the realest shit I've ever heard , it's hard to act some way when you've only been taught wrongg

Makes you think how lucky you are that you have good parents I'm blessed for my parents My mom says "I'm blessed for how Im living I could be living so much better but I can also be living so much worse"

Who’s here in 2024

When your kid says they don't want to be like you, you know you need to change. Edit: Thx So Much For The Likes

We all can connect with this. Everyone has someone in their life that makes you say, "I will be nothing like you."

America can't handle these strong ass stories😂

the girls lip sync is better and what was he watching

I don't know how he's not bigger then what he is! He is beyond real

I will never be anything like my father.

It brought up a flashback for me!! At 1:50 when he’s holding up that chick. Reminds me of when my dad cheated on my mom in front of me in the kitchen of her house, when I was like 5. He had her up like that. I was hungry, tired, crying, & knew it was wrong. But he didn’t care. Told me not to tell anyone after or else I’d get in trouble. Shit scarred me for life. Though I eventually told her. Then she brought it up with him, he denied it, flipped out on me & called me a liar. And throughout my life I always tell him “I never wanna be like you.” I tell my mom “at least he taught me one good thing. He taught me exactly what I don’t want to be as a person.”

I came from a broken ass home & this song really explains it all I’m glad i came across this song 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Whoever disliked this video grew up to be "just like you" smh

damn those 7 year olds have some deep voices

This is one of the most deep hip hop pieces ever. I'm serious. The message and execution is unparalleled.

Does anyone else think Joyner Lucas is in their mind(s) secretly? This shit is relatable AF

Ears: I love this Me: me too Ears: you know wut that means Me: ... Ears: U KNOW Me: (-_-) Ears: ... Me: we gonna play it... Ears: WE GONNA PLAY IT UNTIL WE HATE IT Me: *dies*

The dislikes are dead beat parents 💯

When your parents Buy Unfrosted Pop Tarts

Not a lot of people gave attention to this , but in 0:09 we can see a scene from The Spongebob Movie, a movie which its message goes as it doesnt matter if your too young or too weak, if you belive in yourself you can do it, the same message Joyner is going for in the song. Great job joyner for these extra details, i must say he is doing a great job directing.

Joyner is the best storyteller in the rap game

You know it's gonna be a banger when you see Joyner drop a song

I’m thankful I’ve never had to go through this struggle but I know my father did and he was the most humble man I’ve ever met and I know that he did the things he did for me because he didn’t want me to have the same life as him I aspire to be the man he is

Who was here before Joyner blew up??

No one else gonna comment on that lil boys hair?

I’m not gone lie tho them kids was really speaking facts

Man... For those of us who use to be one of these children growing up this song hits different. Growing up around heroin, meth, alcoholism, pills, violence, gang shit definitely made being a kid one of the hardest stages. I use to run the streets and would fear coming home because I knew what I was coming back to. It shut me down and turned me non-social. Some people would look at me like what's wrong with him, or he's weird. Little did they know about the hard knock life and because of that life I keep my head held high and extend my hand to lift others up. I love who I've become. I've made mistakes along the way but I love who I am. Hopefully you all can say the same about yourselves too.

Anybody else get a mini heart attack when Joyner drops something new???

I grew up in a home like dis momma mentally abused me and my step dad physically abused me and my whole family so smoked up and my pops in da game I told my self I'd Neva be like them and ended up like them thank God I changed and I got my stuff together and gave my life to God ain't a religious person I believe in relationship

who else replayed this song

This song hits hard... i don't hate my parents i just dont want to have anything to do with them

I love how she let her momma man leave then slap the truth in her face.

Been a fan of Joyner for so long but didn't hear this song yet but damnnnnn this shit gave me chills

hits really hard when you find yourself on the receiving end of lines like those

Trying to sober up, be a better person for my son, I keep a job, make good money but that alcohol always brings me back to my old ways. Never got told how rough this life would be

Joyner Lucas is my role model.

never clicked on something this fast

When you didnt sleep last night so you could catch this drop!

Love this song fr my mom is a crack head and shes in jail pray for me plz my brother died when I was 5 rip lil bro love you

my mom she was literally the second scenario, I'm so proud of my mom she got her diploma trying to fix her life I love you mom❤

Dear dad, you failed me. Dear brother, I'm sorry I failed you. Dear mom, rest well, I'm sorry I made you worry.

The little girl part was too real

This album changed my life! Joyner related to the world by saying what everyone else couldn’t find the words to say in a brilliantly arranged masterpiece!

I honestly hope Joyner BLOWS up. I've never heard a rapper that has such an amazing message in ALL of his songs. Respect for this man what a great role model for kids AND adults.

This man is better than any of these new rappers. Him and Kendrick talk real shit, and know how to keep it relatable, sad, and lit all at once. Mad respect ✊🏼🙌🏼💯

My boi was just tryna watch the spongebob movie man

Fr they think we don’t be listening to what they do or say

that little girl is good at lip syncing

@ 2:09 i lost it. my mom is everything he described. i dont want to be anything like her, but i love her so much. all of his songs are relatable.

them 23 dislikes are them mumble rapper fans

Anybody in 2021 seeing this he is going down to be a legend forever

My mom is literally that messed up mother and the sad reality is that when u ar young u have no doubt about the way your parents are is perfect but as you get older you realize that they treat you like trash and that your and their life is messed up. I have lived my whole life trying to be better than my parents and instead of having a role model I had someone to look down on me. Just a lilac insight lol
