Donald Lawrence - Go Get Your Life Back Lyrics
Lyrics
(Choir Verse)
Sometimes we win,
sometimes we lose,
Sometimes we're hurt and abused,
That's life, all a part of life
Seasons come,
Seasons go,
Yes we reap, what we sow,
That's life, all a part of life
(Ann Nesby Lead)
Every painful moment that life sends to you,
God designed it just to bless you,
for these
(Choir) Trials come to make you strong
(Lead)
So everytime the enemy tries to attack you,
Don't let him, Don't let him destroy you,
What was meant for your bad,
God has turned it around for your good
(Choir)
Go get your life back,
Go and get it,
Go get your life back,
Everything the enemy stole from you,
Your life back,
Go and get it,
Go get your life,
God said live,
(Choir Verse)
There'll be times,
We go astray,
There'll be times we lose our way,
That's life, all a part of life
Sometimes up,
Sometimes down,
Yes the lost can be found
That's life, all a part of life
(back to Lead)
(Vamp)
Your life back,
Your life back,
Go and get it
Your life back,
Everything the enemy stole from you,
Your life back,
Go and get it,
Your Life,
God Says Live!!!!

Go Get Your Life Back
Meaning & Inspiration
Donald Lawrence's "Go Get Your Life Back," released on July 27, 2017, stands as a powerful anthem of resilience and divine restoration, echoing a profound truth found throughout Scripture. The song directly confronts the realities of life's inevitable struggles – the losses, the hurts, the times we stray and lose our way. Lawrence, through the impassioned delivery of Ann Nesby and a stirring choir, paints a picture not of despair, but of divine purpose interwoven with every trial. The central message is one of hope rooted in faith: that every painful moment, every attack from the enemy, is ultimately designed for our blessing and strengthening. This resonates deeply with verses like Romans 8:28, which assures us that "in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." The song reframes adversity not as a defeat, but as a crucible intended to forge strength.
The core exhortation, "Go get your life back," is a clarion call to reclaim what has been seemingly stolen by life's challenges or spiritual opposition. It’s a direct acknowledgment that we are not passive victims but active participants in our restoration. This active engagement is echoed in James 4:7, which instructs believers to "Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." The song suggests that God has already begun the work of turning what was meant for harm into something for our good, a principle powerfully exemplified in the story of Joseph, who declared to his brothers in Genesis 50:20, "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives." Lawrence’s composition serves as a spiritual declaration, reminding listeners that their lives are not defined by setbacks but by their ultimate triumph through God's grace. The repeated, emphatic phrase, "God Says Live!!!!" is not just a conclusion; it's a divine decree, a foundational truth that empowers individuals to rise above their circumstances and embrace the abundant life promised, as spoken by Jesus himself in John 10:10: "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." "Go Get Your Life Back" is therefore more than a song; it's a spiritual mandate for empowerment, a vibrant testament to the enduring power of faith to overcome and reclaim every facet of one's divinely ordained existence.
