Lyrics

[Intro: TobyMac] Now come on! [Verse 1: TobyMac, TobyMac & Choir] Now you can have all the fun and money man can have Sport a Porsche or carry Gucci bags You can gear in gold from your chest to your chin But if you don't know the Savior, you'll never get in The gates o' Hell shall prevail on your soul If makin' money, shakin' honeys is your lifelong goal There's a plan laid before you that can change the above It can fit any man like a hand in a glove There's only one way to Heaven and that won't change 'Cause my almighty Father's not respectful of names [Pre-Chorus: TobyMac] So be saved [Chorus: Michael Tait & Choir, TobyMac] Saved, you got to be saved (Come and be saved) Saved, you got to be saved (We'll let the choir rave) Saved, you got to be saved (You got to, got to be saved) Saved, you got to be saved [Verse 2: TobyMac, TobyMac & Choir, Michael Tait] I once knew a politician up on Capitol Hill Attended all the right parties 'cause he voted on bills He had big friends, he drove a Benz But a life full o' strife cause he was livin' in sin He said he wasn't satisfied with life as it was Everything he'd always wanted simply wasn't enough When he asked me, "Why so happy?" I had to confess "I got Christ in my life, I've been more than blessed" You see there's nothin' wrong with finer things in life But an eternity in Heaven ain't displayin' a price (Oh) [Pre-Chorus: TobyMac] So be saved [Chorus: Michael Tait & Choir, TobyMac, Michael Tait] Saved, you got to be saved (Come and be saved) (Listen up) Saved, you got to be saved (We'll let the choir rave) Saved (Oh), you got to be saved (You got to, got to be saved) (Come on) Saved, you got to be saved (You got to be saved) Ah ooh [Bridge: TobyMac, Choir, Michael Tait & Kevin Max] Now break it down real nice for us Sa-sa-sa-saved You gotta know it and believe it Sa-sa-sa-saved You gotta show it and receive it One time! [Organ Solo] [Pre-Chorus: TobyMac] Now you got to be saved [Chorus: Choir, TobyMac, Michael Tait & Kevin Max] Saved (Oh), you got to be saved (Come on and be saved) (Believe it) Saved, you got to be saved (Saved) (Let the choir rave) Saved, you got to be saved (You got to, got to be saved) Saved (Oh, you gotta know it), you got to be saved [Verse 3: TobyMac, TobyMac, Michael Tait & Choir] Well, from a brother to another, I'm not doggin' the bucks 'Cause a bum without the father is a bum outta luck No mention of exemption, no requirements waived To enter through the gates ya got to, got to be saved Don't make it complex, straight up text No matter what race, creed, color, or sex Accept him, don't reject him, heed the call of the Christ He's at your heart's door knockin', He awaits a reply This life is temporary, lay your treasures above Eternal life is offered through His infinite love [Pre-Chorus: TobyMac] And be saved [Chorus: Choir, TobyMac & Kevin Max] Saved, you got to be saved (Come and be saved) Yeah Saved, you got to be saved (We'll let the choir rave) Saved, you gah ta be saved (You got to, got to be saved) Saved, you got to be saved [Outro: Choir, TobyMac & Michael Tait] Saved (Oh, yeah), you got to be saved (The preacher, the teacher) Saved, you got to be saved (Oh, yeah) (You got to be saved) Saved (Oh, yeah), you got to be saved Saved, you got to be saved
