Lecrae - Don't Waste Your Life Lyrics

Artist: Lecrae

Album: Rebel

Genre: Hip Hop/Rap

Hook:
(Cam)
Don't wanna waste my life

Verse 1:
(LeCrae)
I know a lot of people out there scared they gone die/ couple of em thinking they'll be livin' in the sky/ but while I'm here livin' man I gotta ask why, what am here fo I gotta figure out/ waste my life/ no I gotta make it count /if Christ is real then what am I gone do about/ everything in Luke 12:15 down to 21/ you really oughta go and check it out/Paul said if Christ ain't resurrect then we wasted our lives/ well that implies that our life's built around Jesus being alive/ everyday I'm living tryin' show the world why/ Christ is more than everything you'll ever try/ better than pretty women and sinning and living to get a minute of any women and men that you admire/ ain't no lie/
We created for Him/ outta the dust he made us for Him/ Elects us and he saves us for Him/ Jesus comes and raises for Him/ Magnify the Father why bother with something lesser/ he made us so we could bless Him and to the world we confess him/ resurrects him/ so I know I got life/ matter fact better man I know I got Christ/ if you don't' see His ways in my days and nights/ you can hit my brakes you can stop my lights/ man I lost my rights/ I lost my life/ forget the money cars and toss that ice/ the cost is Christ/ and they could never offer me anything on the planet that'll cost that price.

Verse 2:
(Dwayne Tryumph)
Armed and dangerous
So the devil jus can't handle us
Christian youth them a stand wid us
Livin' n driven/ given a vision/ fullfillin the commission he handed us
London to Los Angeles
Da rap evangelist
Ma daddy wouldn't abandon us
"I gotta back pack fulla tracts plus I keep a Johnny Mac"
So are you ready to jam with us
So lets go, gimme the word an lets go
Persecution lets go
Tribulation lets go
Across the nation lets go
Procrastination bes go
Hung on the cross in the cold
Died for da young and the old
Can't say you never know
Heaven knows
How many souls are going to hell or to heaven so we gotta go in and get em
Whaaaaat!

Verse 3:
(LeCrae)
Suffer/ Yeah do it for Christ if you trying to figure what to do with your life/ if you making a lot money hope you doing it right because the money is Gods you better steward it right/ stay focused if you ain't got no ride/ your life ain't wrapped up in what you drive/ the clothes you wear the job you work/ the color your skin naw you Christian first/ people living life for a job/ make a lil money start living for a car/ get em a wife a house and a dog/ when they retire they living high on the hog/ but guess what they didn't ever really live at all/ to live is Christ yeah that's Paul I recall/ to die is gain so for Christ we give it all/ he's the treasure you'll find in the mall/ Your money your singleness marriage talent and time/ they were loaned to you to show the world that Christ is Divine/ that's why it's Christ in my rhymes/ That's why it's Christ all the time/see my whole world is built around him He's the life in my lines/ I refused to waste my life/ he's too true ta chase that ice/ here's my gifts and time cause I'm constantly trying to be used to praise the Christ/ If he's truly raised to life/ then this news should change your life/ and by his grace you can put your faith in place that rules your days and nights.

    Amazing.! LeCrae is an amazing lyricist. This song speaks to me so much every time I listen to it. It just makes so much sense. And it shows how annointed and spiritual LeCrae really is. He bases EVERYTHING on scripture and I love that about him. He is a man of God. I love him. Lol, I rele do.

    God is awesome.! If u don't know him, get to know him, he's the best thing tht ever happened to me. Trust, its hard at first. But just strive and persevere you can make it through.! And I'm only 17.!!! And I'm on fire for Christ. So anything is possible withb him on ur side =)

    My name is Elizabeth Gabrielle. You can search me on FB if u need to. @pehqlearbeeying (peculiar being 1st peter 2:9) on twitter.! We cud be christian buddies.! Lol. And even if ur not. =) l8a songlyrics.com!!

    Paul said if Christ ain't resurrect then we wasted our lives/ well that implies that our life's built around Jesus being alive

    If he's truly raised to life/ then this news should change your life

    Oh this song is so encouraging to me! Sometimes I doubt that Jesus really is the truth, that God really exists, but I'm always reminded that no one's trying to get me to pretend something that they know isn't real. If Jesus isn't real, Christians admit they're hopeless-- they're not pretending. They also know that because He IS real, their lives are not wasted. OUR lives are not wasted. Thank You, Jesus.
    If Jesus really is alive, it oughta change my life.
    He's alive.

    the truth of Jesus Christ is the most important message in the history of mankind because he trully is the "Savior of the World"and this song delivers that message without a doubt.

    this song is not only entertaing but has a serious biblical msg and is a
    reminder to Christians to not waste our lives,& to be fruitfull for Jesus,
    to non Christians not to waste your lives.... & it,s a garantee dat u will
    not waste your life if you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Personal Saviour.
