"Life On It" lyrics - TOBYMAC
[Refrain: TobyMac]
Everybody needs somebody
Don't try and fake the folly
Anytime it cuts, we all bleed
Everybody got the same needs
I'm standin' on the hill I'd die on
So let me go and get my fight on
Down to my final heartbeat
Nobody gonna take what I believe
[Verse 1: TobyMac]
I never thought for a second when I asked You to save me
That I'd ever be steppin' into the waves that would take me
To the valleys we crawled or the peaks that we've run
From the blessings poured out to me losin' my son
You're my way and my truth, I'm a disciple of You
Through the highs and the lows, my heart will always stay true
They could put me in chains, they could lock me away
They would slay me in vain, I will always remain
[Chorus: TobyMac]
I'll put my life on it (I'll put my life on it, I'll put my life on it)
Willin' to die for it (Willin' to die for it)
No matter what they say
If I ever go M.I.A.
They took my life for it (They took my life for it)
I'll put my life on it (I'll put my life on it)
I'll put my life on it
[Post-Chorus: TobyMac, Bryan Fowler & Micah Kuiper]
I'd rather live for somethin' than to die for nothin'
I'ma live for somethin', I'ma live for-
I'd rather live for somethin' than to die for nothin'
I'ma live for somethin', I'ma live for-
I'd rather live for somethin' than to die for nothin'
I'ma live for somethin', I'ma live for-
I'd rather live for somethin' than to die for nothin'
I'ma live for somethin', I'ma live for you, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
You, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
You, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Refrain: Sarah Reeves, Sarah Reeves, Bryan Fowler & Micah Kuiper, TobyMac]
Everybody needs somebody
Don't try to fake the folly
Anytime it cuts, we all bleed
Everybody got the same needs
I'm standin' on the hill I'd die on
So let me go and get my fight on
Down to my final heartbeat
Nobody gonna take what I believe (Yeah)
[Verse 2: TobyMac]
I'm tryin' to make my life about His business
God is in control, I'm just a witness
Yeah, that might just put me on a hitlist
Now I'm the one outside that's lookin' different
So why you wanna change my worldview? (Why? Why?)
I ain't sittin' high and judgin' you (Ooh)
Ain't everybody stickin' to their truth? (Okay)
I'll stick to mine like I been freakin' glued (Hey)
[Chorus: TobyMac, Sarah Reeves, TobyMac & Sarah Reeves]
I'll put my life on it (I'll put my life on it, I'll put my life on it)
I'll put my life on it
Willin' to die for it (Willin' to die for it)
Willin' to die for it
No matter what they say
If I ever go M.I.A.
They took my life for it (They took my life for it)
They took my life for it
I'll put my life on it
I'll put my life on it (I'll put my life on it)
I'll put my life on it
I'll put my life on it
[Post-Chorus: TobyMac & Sarah Reeves, Bryan Fowler & Micah Kuiper]
I'd rather live for somethin' than to die for nothin'
I'ma live for somethin', I'ma live for-
I'd rather live for somethin' than to die for nothin'
I'ma live for somethin', I'ma live for-
I'd rather live for somethin' than to die for nothin'
I'ma live for somethin', I'ma live for-
I'd rather live for somethin' than to die for nothin'
I'ma live for somethin', I'ma live for you, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
You, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
You, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Outro: TobyMac]
My Lord, I'm gonna live for You
