Don't Waste Your Life Music Video

Type: news By reach Posted April 13th, 2009 35 Comments




Reach Records presents the offical "Dont Waste Your Life" music video.

Featuring Lecrae and Sho Baraka as the main actors, we pray this video will let none of us say at the end of our lives "I've wasted it."


Special thanks to the video team at Desiring God for their production of the project. Look for some "behind the scenes" footage from the taping coming soon.

Be sure to check the DWYL Tour website to see when we're coming to your city!

  • (Apr 13th at 11:38 AM) I love the video, reminds me a lot of my brothers down at Angola penitentiary in Louisiana begging the rest of us out here in "freedom" not to waste our lives. I know y'all just did a show down there, not sure if they're connected but that's what I got from watching it. The concept is great, well worth the wait.

    JUST Banging Man

    Concept is Crazy

    I GET IT !!!!

    SO Lacrae was SHO's partner in Crime robbing stores

    and Crae got caught escaping the store but SHO got away and Enjoyed all the wealth.

    But at the end reading the letter sent to him by Crae who got saved while in Prison

    SHO came to his sences


    I Think this is an amazing Concept

    God bless yall on this one,

    JESUS4Life
  • Jessica (Apr 13th at 5:38 PM) Loved the twist! Let God keep using ya'll to spread the message of a wasted life. AMEN!
  • Jeremy (Apr 13th at 6:18 PM) I really appreciate Lecrae, Sho, this song, and this video. It was awesome! If you really pay close attention to the lyrics, you'll find so much truth in them. Well I sure did anyway! God bless yall.
  • Andrea (Apr 13th at 7:34 PM) I never liked rap music (except The Sugar Hill Gang) and therefore didn't really care for gospel rap...but this just changed my mind! This was awesome!!! I loved the video, the concept, the words, EVERYTHING!!! Tell me how to book this young man for a youth sunday or youth conference!

    I pray your career continues to grow and your light continue to shine for young and old to see and receive!
  • Thomas (Apr 13th at 7:39 PM) This song already gave me inner goodness, but this video gave me that, and some cold chills as well. The concept behind it was pretty amazing. Keep on going hard for the Lord. You are inspiring a generation to rise up for Christ.
  • Ben Burtness (Apr 13th at 7:59 PM) All I can say is.. that was amazing. Some of Lecrae's and all the other's songs really touch me
  • Randy (Apr 13th at 8:41 PM) That really touched me. I work in jail ministry, and I see so many guys that are wasting their life chasing sin. The cool thing is, some of them find Christ in jail, they have a real change in their life, and even though they have to do time, they really start living. Thanks for the video, you guys are the best.
  • (Apr 13th at 9:14 PM) ANDREA YOU CAN GO TO THE HOME PAGE UNDER BOOKING INFO...THEIR GREAT YOU GET RAPPIN AND PREACHIN ALL IN ONE CONCERT...I JUST WENT TO ONE OF THEIR CONCERT AND SO MANY PEOPLE GOT SAVE IT WAS GREAT...

    myspace.com/KINGDOMGURL116CLIQUE I'LL BE TO GLAD TO HEAR FROM OTHER SAINTS.....
    KEEP IT CHRIST...
  • Michael (Apr 14th at 9:53 AM) I dont really get the concept or the plot, at first it seemed like some guy was writting letters to another guy(like paul), but then it seemed like he was in jail..im not sure, but cool.
  • val (Apr 14th at 12:40 PM) michael,
    here is what someone on YouTube wrote about the story...

    Lecrae wrote his boy a letter and sent him a Bible... and he's talking to him about wasting his life and what he's doing w/it. During the video, you see a robbery scene taking place. At the end, you see it was Sho and Lecrae that committed this robbery. Lecrae got caught while Sho didn't. While in jail, He got blindsided by the Gospel and is sharing it w/Sho. Sho reads the letter and is convicted by what Crae is saying... And Sho drives to the jail to visit him...

    that help?
  • PJ Gunby (Apr 14th at 1:39 PM) I'm so convicted right now. I'm sitting here in tears. Thank you for this amazing video. It could not have come at a more opportune time. Just 2 nights ago decided to completely crucify this flesh. I'm saved, have been for a year (by God's grace alone). When I made this decision with my cousin I was weeping, because I knew what it meant and how difficult it would be. But I know this is what Christ commands of me. Thank you again for this video. It has blessed me, and I will share it with as many people as I can.
  • Zipporah (Apr 14th at 8:28 PM) I'll share it with my youth group. That was a spectacular video! God Bless
  • Jessica Williams (Apr 17th at 1:44 AM) Yo that was DEEP!! I love that song it's so REAL and the video concept matched up perfectly. We got another one for the kingdom, and I can't wait for the tour this summer! And is there gonna be a part 2 to this video? It seemed like a to be continued ending. I hope so because that would be fresh. Much love Reach fam, keep doing your thing for the Lord Jesus Christ.
  • Shalim Jacob (Apr 17th at 6:27 PM) I really thank God for everything your doing to push the gospel to every person espeially the young ones
    God bless you all
    ONE LOVE!
  • Rosalyn Bilberry (Apr 17th at 7:35 PM) lacrae is the best lryicist I have heard
  • The D.I.A.H.A. (May 13th at 12:32 AM) This video is awesome. It really hit home for me. One of my best friends is on his 13th year in prison, while his cousin has been out free, and the situation was almost the same, except it was federal time. He's like a brother to me, so I have always kept in touch with him to let him know how God has changed my life. Recently he wrote to say how he has committed his life to Christ and is faithfully attending the worship services provided. I pray he will continue to go with God when he gets released soon. I thank God for brothers like you who meet brothers at the level of their understanding, so they can come to know Christ as we have. Thank you for allowing God to use you for Kingdom business!~
