Don't Waste Your Life lyrics

[Verse 1 – Lecrae]

I know a lot of people that scared they gon’ die, couple of ‘em thinking they’ll be livin’ in the sky

While I’m here livin’ man I gotta ask why, what am here for I gotta figure out

Waste my life no I gotta make it count, if Christ is real then what am I gon’ do about

Everything in Luke 12:15 down to 21? You really gotta go and check it out

Paul said if Christ ain’t resurrected, we wasted our lives

Well that implies that our life’s built around Jesus being alive

Everyday I live I’m tryna 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

It 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 he raises for him

Magnify the Father, why bother with something lesser?

He made us so we could bless him, to the world we confess him

Resurrects him, so I know I got life, matter fact better’n that 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, 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

[Chorus – Cam]

Don’t wanna waste my life, life, life

Don’t wanna waste my life, life, life

Don’t wanna waste my life, life, life

Don’t wanna waste my

Don’t wanna waste my

Don’t wanna waste my life, life, life

Don’t wanna waste my life, life, life

Don’t wanna waste my life, life, life

Don’t wanna waste my

Don’t wanna waste my

Don’t wanna waste my life

[Verse 2 – Dwayne Tryumf]

Armed and dangerous, so the devil just can’t hang with us

Christian youth them a stand with us, livin’ and driven given a vision fullfillin’ the commission he handed us

London to Los Angeles, the rap evangelist, my daddy wouldn’t abandon us

“I gotta back pack fulla tracts and I keep a Johnny Mac” so are you ready to jam with us?

So let’s go, gimme the word and let’s go, persecution let’s go

Tribulation let’s go, across the nation let’s go, procrastination best go

Hung on the cross in the cold, died for the 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

[Chorus – Cam]

[Verse 3 – Lecrae]

Suffer, yeah, do it for Christ, if you tryna figure what to do with your life

If you make a lot of money hope you doing it right because the money is God’s 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 get to livin for a job, make a little money start living for a car

Get ‘em a wife a house kids 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 and that’s Paul I recall

To die is gain so for Christ we give it all, he’s the treasure you’ll never find in the mall

See your money, your singleness, marriage, talent, your 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 refuse to waste my life, he’s too true to 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

[Chorus – Cam]
