Rebel cover
02. Don't Waste Your Life
Album: Rebel
Artist: Lecrae
         
 

(Lecrae)
I know a lot of people out there scared they gonna die
Couple of 'em thinkin' they'll be livin' in the sky
But 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 gonna 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 sinnin' and livin' 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
And to the world we confess Him
Resurrects Him, so I know I got life
Matter of 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 and cars and toss that ice
The cost is Christ
And they could never offer me anything on the planet that'll cost that price

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

(Dwayne Tryumf)
Armed and dangerous
So the devil just can't hang wit' us
Christian youth them a stand wit' us
Livin' and driven, given a vision, fullfillin' the commission He handed us
London to Los Angeles
Da rap evangelist
My Daddy wouldn't abandon us
I gotta back pack full of tracts plus 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 bes' 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

Hook

(Lecrae)
Suffer, yeah do it for Christ
If you tryin' to figure what to do with your life
If you make a lot of money, hope you doin' 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 of your skin, naw you a Christian first
People out there living 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 livin' 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 never find in the mall
See your money, your singleness, marriage, talents 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 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 the place that rules your days and nights

Hook
