JCLF714 "there, I said it". that's nothing to say in shame. this rap about Christ is many times better than that garbage the people of the world listen to
Jacqueline Ferrari, so so true! Most rap isn’t worth listening to. It can be really downgrading and bad. This is my personal favorite song! God bless you!:)
Good song n one that is very touching. A wise mind thought about these lyrics because they have a good deal of meaning n they engage your mind in the song and the meaning of the song. U hear the song n the life of the song in this 1 lol! God bless!
Lecrae, a true inspiration for our generation. Thanks for sharing this video with us. Hope everybody shares it on the social media, like i do, so that many more young people be saved and get serious with God. God bless you.
“Paul said if Christ ain’t resurrect, then we wasted our lives. Well, that implies that our whole life is built around Jesus being Alive.” I can never get enough of this.
Best song ever. All glory to God forever. He saved me from gluttony and loneliness, praise Jesus forever. I always doubted but God was always there for me and through religion class of grade 10 that I didn't even really wanna go to, it drew me closer to God and I kept seeking him until I saw video of living waters. When the video was done, I knew what I had to do. I put my faith in Jesus Christ and accepted Him as my Lord & Savior. I knew if I was to die in that moment, Jesus would save me. I wanted to pull an all nighter that night of may/juneish of 2022 but I for some reason would rather listen to my mom. I had one of the most peaceful sleeps ever and woke up a changed person. It took me a while to turn from sin, it wasn't instant but my heart change was instant and that led to me living for Jesus. Thank You Jesus so much. If it wasn't for lecrae, I probablu wouldn't be saved. Thank You God for showing me in religion class through the blessed up remix that rap can be Christian and actually sound good. Along with Mike Todds message in the end about purpose chasing, where I knew even God had dreams for me. Back then I thought it was fame, now I know its giving God the fame but the fact that God didn't hate dreams, led me to seek Him. Thank You God so much, all glory to You forever and all the souls You saved. Thank You Jesus, hallelujah
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me! Galatians 2:20
One of my favorites! Beat is fire, tune is catchy, speed and flow is just incredible. The best thing, the lyrics have one the best meanings that I've heard. Praise God! 🔥🕊
Yeah man this is dope! I am from Haiti and still living there but love rap musics. Man I have been singing that one of Lecrae since three years and got the lyrics on my mind.
Such a good song I tried to rap along I kinda messed up a few lot of times xD but Lecrae is very good raper and I so happy that he uses his gift praising God. :)
Jesus someone's trying to have you more. He says "He knows you before you were in your mother's womb" - keep chasing, and take many on the same eternal journey as yours.
I know a lot of people out there scared they're gon' die A couple of them 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 gonna do about Everything in Luke 12: 15 down to 21 You've really gotta go and check it out Paul said if Christ ain't resurrected we've wasted our lives Well that implies that our life's built around Jesus being alive Everyday I'm living tryin' to 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're 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 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 life Then 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 would cost that price.

+Ryan Tristan's That moment when u rap first verse completely no mistakes(Acheivement unlocked #RAP GOD)..Worst part got to sing this with my friends in church next monday...No hope :(..I know the words but going fast is my problem
Thanks for the video. Have always loved this song. However at 0:56 I believe the lyrics are "To the world we confess Him, resurrects 'em" (resurrects them). In other words, we confess/preach Jesus, and they get resurrected as a result (born again, regenerated). And at 1:48 it should be "and I keep a Johnny Mac" (referring to a John Macarthur study bible) And at 1:57 it should be "procrastination best go" as in, we shouldn't procrastinate. (ie, the procrastination best get outta here, lol)
skalapunk Not 100% sure on the first one but makes sense. And the other two have been brought up before, sadly I can't change it since it's already here :( Probably once I remake it on my other channel I will correct the typos and add end the words at the end. I did this for a school project and was restrained on time so I didn't thoroughly inspect it, thanks for the feedback though!
I like this song. It's how I feel I don't want to waste my life. I like the beat to as well as the words. We waste our time with letting different things hold us back.
As this song is Lecrae's best(in my opinon) Try doing the Lyric video of Lecrae If I die tonight. That song just touches you, as Novel has a great singing voice along with the rap. The Music is great, and the words are inspiring.
Thanks for watching everyone! I never ever expected to get 63,000 views. I was expecting maybe a thousand. Like I said before, I'm still planning another lecrae lyric video. Sorry I haven't delivered yet, but I promise there will be another!
Not gonna lie I just randomly get super emotional when I listen to this one. It hits deep and really makes me reflect on my actions and things I know I shouldn’t do. This song 100% has god’s hand on it
Luke 12:15-21 15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. 16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: 17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? 18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. 20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? 21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
i love this song so much! first off it makes you move! second it reminds you to put christ first 2thumbs up for this song!! if only i had more thumbs :P
Lecrae's lyrics are so powerful. So much better than mainstream rap. There, I said it.
true
JCLF714 "there, I said it". that's nothing to say in shame. this rap about Christ is many times better than that garbage the people of the world listen to
JCLF714 amen
I agree
HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!
Everything he said was so true. I like how he rhymes with true and edifying things that actually make sense, unlike wordly rap.
Jacqueline Ferrari, so so true! Most rap isn’t worth listening to. It can be really downgrading and bad. This is my personal favorite song! God bless you!:)
Who else can say they love there job so much they take pay cuts over getting a raise!! Go head I'll wait!!
This is actually the best song ever. It has inspired me greatly and now I'm rapping this in my school's variety show.
How did it go? That’s so cool
Yeah how'd it go?
Yeah how was it
How did it go
Good song n one that is very touching. A wise mind thought about these lyrics because they have a good deal of meaning n they engage your mind in the song and the meaning of the song. U hear the song n the life of the song in this 1 lol! God bless!

Thanks for supporting kids because not many care enough for kids
Elena Santana I started playing these songs to my father and he is on the road of Him
Amen !!!!!!
Lecrae, I love your story. You went through some struggles. Turned it around for Gds glory. Great job
“Paul said if Christ ain’t resurrect, then we wasted our lives. Well, that implies that our whole life is built around Jesus being Alive.”
I can never get enough of this.
Man, you are killing it with this song.

Lecrae is my favorite Christian rapper. Still listening in 2018. Keep up with the Awesome music.
I am buying his album...pure talent being used to glorify the living God...Alleluiyah
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me! Galatians 2:20
One of my favorites! Beat is fire, tune is catchy, speed and flow is just incredible. The best thing, the lyrics have one the best meanings that I've heard. Praise God! 🔥🕊
I'm an atheist, but I love this song. Its so well done.
A biblical view of how you can be saved by grace through faith.
Yeah man this is dope! I am from Haiti and still living there but love rap musics. Man I have been singing that one of Lecrae since three years and got the lyrics on my mind.
This song is so crazy ! I love so much !
That chorus makes me search my Soul! Have tears in my eyes
1:41 I mean whaaaaaat? ??? Just killed it!
Such a good song I tried to rap along I kinda messed up a few lot of times xD but Lecrae is very good raper and I so happy that he uses his gift praising God. :)
*rapper
lol whoops
I agree
me too
Yo you did an amazing job on the lyrics and nice choice for the bg
Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
This is actually easy to memorize if u put your heart into it
I get tongue tied on How many souls are going to hell or to heaven😂
Truly spoke to me! Thanks for posting and great lyrics lecrae :)
My big brother introduced me to Lecrae's music and now I can't stop listening to it.
THE most sick beat I have ever heard!!! Spitting fire!! There's no other rap song in the world with more powerful lyrics
I absolutely love this song and can't get enough of it
Can somebody please pray for me so I could come closer to God?
Hey just decided to check up on you now, are you closer now
Always praying for everyone including my enemies
Praying! 🙏🖤
"Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you." James 4:7
Jesus someone's trying to have you more.
He says "He knows you before you were in your mother's womb" - keep chasing, and take many on the same eternal journey as yours.
Praying for you,
You're loved.❤
Thanks for taking the time and effort to make this video. One of my favorites and now I can understand the words better.
This got the speed of Busta Rhymes and a chorus that sounds like Eminem. This is lit. This is what we need.
It’s crazy how the most talented and gifted rappers never get the attention they deserve
Well Lecrae got it. Not Dwayne Tryumf
I love lecrae! his raps are so good.😊🖒
This is my go to song, bro. It will always bring me up, get me pumped, carry on, and be a Disciple with God stranding right there next to me.
Thanks Lecrae for being a positive force in hip.hop we need more entertainers like you both male and female
Dope song, I like the fact it talks about one of the core responsibility of believers.
Wow. Lecrae is an amazing lyricist (if that's the correct term).
its artist js
Lyricist is one word you could use. Artist is just the more common term.
who else tried to rap along?
tried? i did and succeeded lol
you lie
TKD rulez! He succedded in keeping along with the Dont wana waste my life chourus xD
Alexander Willis thats true xD
Its not that hard once you know the lyrics :P
Amazing, we need more meaningful music like this
I remember being like 15-16 trying to memorize this song and rap it as fast as Crae. God bless him 🙏🏽
ikr boy this is a really good song!
2:54 Best flow in the song! "To die is gain..."
wow...I am telling you this is now my go to bed song and my wake up song...I am loving the lyrics...on point
U a Legend listening to this in 2021
I know a lot of people out there scared they're gon' die
A couple of them 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 gonna do about
Everything in Luke 12: 15 down to 21
You've really gotta go and check it out
Paul said if Christ ain't resurrected we've wasted our lives
Well that implies that our life's built around Jesus being alive
Everyday I'm living tryin' to 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're 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 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 life
Then 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 would cost that price.
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
Armed and dangerous
So the devil just can't hang with us
Christian youth them will stand with us
Living and driven, given a vision, fulfillin' the commission he handed us
London to Los Angeles, the rap evangelist
My daddy wouldn't abandon us
I gotta backpack full of tracts and I keep it on the Johnny Mac
So are you ready to jam with us
So let's go, give me the word an let's go
Persecution let's go
Tribulation let's go
Across the nation let's go
Procrastination let's 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 to get them
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
Suffer, yeah, do it for Christ
You're trying to figure what to do with your life
If you make a lot of money hope you're doing it right
Because the money is God's you better steward it right
And stay focused, 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 colour your skin, naw you're a Christian first
People get to living for a job
Make a little money start living for a car
Get 'em a wife a house kids and a dog
Then they retire they're 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 a mall
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 refused 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
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
Bruh nice, But there's lyrics for a reason lol
@@obedlopez1075 plssss it was to get my head ready for the next lyrics cuz some of it is really fast
Love this song! Thank you for the lyrics
Thanks for the lyrics! At 0:40 all I can distinguish is "homina homina homina homina homina homina!!!"
A friend recommended this song to me, and there's a strong messege in this song
thanks for the lyrics. my ears are a little slow.
This is a hard song to listen to for anyone! You're welcome for the lyrics though :) Glad you enjoyed it
If you can't keep up with that try singing the whole song of Eminem's Rap God with no lyrics perfectly!Ive done it before!
+Ryan Tristan's That moment when u rap first verse completely no mistakes(Acheivement unlocked #RAP GOD)..Worst part got to sing this with my friends in church next monday...No hope :(..I know the words but going fast is my problem
thank you
+Micheal Amah Yeah man.
thanks for letting me find this.. when I need it...
richard weinmann, I truly needed some encouragement to! I found it here:)
And he still raps faster than eminem gotta give it to lecrae for this one love this song
🌚
🌚
Well he raps fast but I'm pretty sure Eminem still holds the record.
Shady does still hold the record for 110 words in 16 seconds from the song Rap God I'm a fan of CRAE and Eminem
Eminem doesn't hold a record,em fans should go on RUclips and look up fast rappers. Your really misinformed if you think he's the fastest rapper
Still listening in 2014, perfect song
David Montague, still an amazing song 2k18
this is such a fell good song, and I love it
Lacrae's music is so Great !!!!
best rap song ever!!
One of my favs from him!
Cherri Baldon Same here!
2015. Still relevant.
+Karl Li Always will be.
Karl Li 2017 still relevant
2020 still relevant
2021 still relevant
2024 and still relevant.
If this didn't have subtitles I would have never known what he was saying. Dang.
Watch Aliens by Lecrae :)
IKR!
I was wondering why it had subtitles like that! Do you not listen to much rap or something? He is very clear in his pronunciation of words!
I know he raps so fast and half the time I have yes idea what he is saying!!!! He is soooo good!!!!!!!
Thanks for the video. Have always loved this song. However at 0:56 I believe the lyrics are "To the world we confess Him, resurrects 'em" (resurrects them). In other words, we confess/preach Jesus, and they get resurrected as a result (born again, regenerated). And at 1:48 it should be "and I keep a Johnny Mac" (referring to a John Macarthur study bible) And at 1:57 it should be "procrastination best go" as in, we shouldn't procrastinate. (ie, the procrastination best get outta here, lol)
skalapunk Not 100% sure on the first one but makes sense. And the other two have been brought up before, sadly I can't change it since it's already here :( Probably once I remake it on my other channel I will correct the typos and add end the words at the end. I did this for a school project and was restrained on time so I didn't thoroughly inspect it, thanks for the feedback though!
I like this song. It's how I feel I don't want to waste my life. I like the beat to as well as the words. We waste our time with letting different things hold us back.
staring at the lyrics makes it look 3D... Awesome song
+Annah Lauren it does
man i love this song so much
and its a great thing he uses his talent to praise God
Lecrae is soooo underated. He's probably the best rapper I've ever heard.
Lecrae is so overated.
Message received! This is my calling, and I'm grasping it through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen 🙏
First time I heard this song, almost made me cry. Powerful.
This song goes hype
These old lecrae songs remind me of my new convert days ayee!! The on Fire for God lecrae where you at??

Yes sir
Thomas Manase amen sir

Here in 2021! Let’s continue spreading the word and doing good works for Our Father! May God bless you all abundantly
Lecrae goes too hard I love it.
Hey u are amazing second comment :)
I love lecraes songs! they are GOOD!
As this song is Lecrae's best(in my opinon) Try doing the Lyric video of Lecrae If I die tonight. That song just touches you, as Novel has a great singing voice along with the rap. The Music is great, and the words are inspiring.
Thanks I love Christian music I like lecrae to
The OnLy WaY #234 too*
Wow! This is so good!!!!👍
LOVE this song.
One correction! "Procrastination best go!"
I checked a few sources of lyrics. I'll check it again :) I can't change it anyhow though haha
it's procrastination let's go.
Thanks for watching everyone! I never ever expected to get 63,000 views. I was expecting maybe a thousand. Like I said before, I'm still planning another lecrae lyric video. Sorry I haven't delivered yet, but I promise there will be another!

lecrae is just a really good influence to all the people who have made bad choices
This is the best song ever love it..m
thank you Lacrae
Not gonna lie I just randomly get super emotional when I listen to this one. It hits deep and really makes me reflect on my actions and things I know I shouldn’t do. This song 100% has god’s hand on it
Man even with the "Christian" part aside, he's definitely one of the top five rappers alive today. His lyricism is almost unmatched.
Wow that's great song
Praise Yah and his Son Yashua ha'Machiach.
Really feeling this.
this is one of his best songs
He's my favorite gospel rapper!
I love this song!
my fav part is when it says livin and driven given a vision fulfilling the commission he handed us
That’s Dwayne Tryumf not Lecrae
I LOVE THIS SONG
I so love this video
This song is powerful
Oh my gosh this song!! It's my new favorite rap EVAHHH!
So powerful even now!
Luke 12:15-21
15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? 21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
Praise Yahweh! 🙌🙌
This song is fire!!!!
fire lecrae great job keep going for god
i love this song so much! first off it makes you move! second it reminds you to put christ first 2thumbs up for this song!! if only i had more thumbs :P
