Let's Go
Don't waste your life, man

:Verse 1:
                Em
I know a lot of people that are scared they gonna die,
              Am
Couple of 'em thinkin' they'll be livin' in the sky
               C
While I'm here livin' man I gotta ask why,
          G
What am I here for I gotta figure out,
         Em
Waste my life, no I gotta make it count,
             Am
If Christ is real then what am I gonna do about,
     C                                         
Everything in Luke 12:15 down to 21 ya really gotta go and check it out,
     G
Paul said if Christ aint resurrected we wasted our lives,
          Em
Well that implies that our lives drift around Jesus being alive,
           Am
Everyday I live I try to show the world why,
          G
Christ is more than anything I'd ever try,
            C
Better than pretty women and sinning and living to get a minute of any woman 
                    G
and men that you admire
           
It aint no lie!

We created for Him,
Em
Out of the dust he made us for Him,
Am
Elects us and he saved us for Him,
C
Jesus comes and he raised us for Him,
G
Magnify the Father, why bother with something lesser?
    Em
He made us so we could bless Him, (Bless Him)
         Am
Tell the world we confess Him,
       C
Resurrects Him,

So I know I got life,
G
Matter fact better man I know I got Christ,
Em
If you don't see His ways in my days in my nights,
Am
You can hit my breaks you can stop my life,
C
Man I lost my rights, lost my life,
G
Forget the money, cars and toss that ice,
    Em
The cost is Christ,
                             Am/Bm
And they can never offer me anything any better that would cost that price

:Chorus:
                     Em
Don't wanna waste my life, life, life,
                     Am
Don't wanna waste my life, life, life,
                     C
Don't wanna waste my life, life, life,
                     D
Don't wanna waste my,

Don't wanna waste my, 
(x2)
                         Em
Don't wanna waste my life

:Verse 2:

Armed and dangerous
                        Am
So the devil just can't hang with us
                          C
Christian youth they must stand with us
                                                              G
Livin' n driven, given a vision, fullfillin the commission he handed us

London to Los Angeles

The rap evangelist
                  Em
My daddy wouldn't abandon us

"I gotta back pack fulla tracts and I getta Johnny Mac"
                                         Am
So are you ready to jam with us, so lets go
                         
Gimme the word and lets go
                 C
Persecution lets go
                 
Tribulation lets go
                        G
Across the nation let's go

Procrastination let's go
                         Em
Hung on the cross in the cold
                          Am
Died for the young and the old

Can't say you never know

Heaven knows
          C
How many souls are going to hell or to heaven so we gotta go in and get em

(Chorus)

Verse 3:

Suffer, yeah, do it for Christ,
          Am
If you're trying to figure out what to do with ya life,
              C
If you make a lot of money hope your doin' it right,
                     G
Because the money is God’s, you better steward it right,
         Em
You stay focused, you ain't got no ride,
     Am
Your life ain't wrapped up in what you drive,
     C
The clothes you wear, the job you work,
    G
The color your skin, nah you're Christian first,
                           Em
People get it living for a job,
                                       Am
Make a little money start living for a car,
                                   C
Get em a wife, a house, kids and a dog,
                                          G
Then they retire, they living high on the hog,
           Em
But guess what? They didn’t ever really live at all,
           Am
To live is Christ, and that’s Paul I recall,
          C 
To die is gain and for Christ we give it all,
         G
He's the treasure you'll never find in a mall,
         Em
See your money, your singleness, marriage, talents, your time,
          Am
They were loaned you to show the world that Christ is divine,
               C
That's why its Christ in my rhymes,
               G
That's why its Christ all the time,
              Em
See my whole world is built around Him,
          Am
He's the life in my lines,
     C
I refuse to waste my life,
          G
He's too true to chase that ice,
          Em
Here's my gift and time,
                                  Am
'cause I'm constantly tryna ta be used to praise the Christ,
         C
If He's truly raised to life,
          G
Then this news should change your life,
             Em                      Am                     C
And by His grace you can put your faith in the place that rules your days and nights, YES!

:Chorus:
                     Em
Don't wanna waste my life, life, life, (Gotta give you, one hundred Lord)
                     Am
Don't wanna waste my life, life, life, (Even with the, days gone Lord)
                     C
Don't wanna waste my life, life, life, (Gotta live for)
                     D
Don't wanna waste my, (For something more)

Don't wanna waste my,(And that something is You)
(2x)
                     Em
Don't wanna waste my life (Don't wanna waste my life)

:Outro:
