This song is a bold declaration of total surrender to Jesus. It reflects the moment of conviction where earthly success—money, power, pride, and fame—is exposed as empty compared to the value of Christ. Inspired by Jesus’ teaching on riches and discipleship, the lyrics portray a believer choosing obedience over control, faith over security, and the cross over personal ambition.
The song emphasizes “Kingdom math”—the upside-down logic of God’s Kingdom where the last become first, losing one’s life leads to true life, and eternal reward outweighs temporary gain. Despite loss, rejection, and cost, the believer finds wholeness, identity, and eternal life in Christ alone. The message crescendos into a triumphant confession: Jesus is the true treasure, crown, and reward, worth leaving everything behind for.

Verse 1
Jesus looked me in my eyes and said
It’s hard for the rich to enter heaven
Chains made of gold still chains instead
What you holding tight might block your blessing
What’s the point of gain if the soul is dead
What’s a throne without Your presence
I heard Your call in the middle of noise
Dropped my pride, made my choice
Pre-Chorus
They told me keep what I can control
You told me trust You, let it go
Chorus
I leave it all for Your Name
Money, power, streets, and fame
You my treasure, You my crown
I lay it all, I bow down
First go last, last rise up
Kingdom math don’t add like us
I lose my life, I live again
Jesus, I leave it all for You
Verse 2
Peter said, “Lord, what about us?”
You said, “More than you can imagine”
Hundredfold when you trust My touch
Eternal life, sealed and stamped in heaven
Lost some friends when I walked this road
But You filled the gaps, You made me whole
When the cost feels heavy on my chest
I remember every word You said
Pre-Chorus
What’s impossible in human hands
Is light work for the Great I Am
Chorus
I leave it all for Your Name
Money, power, streets, and fame
You my treasure, You my crown
I lay it all, I bow down
First go last, last rise up
Kingdom math don’t add like us
I lose my life, I live again
Jesus, I leave it all for You
Bridge (Spoken / Half-Sung)
Camel through the needle, still You make a way
Grace too heavy for the scale I weigh
I traded crowns for mercy scars
Now my future written in Your palms
Bridge (Sung)
Nothing compares
Nothing remains
Only Jesus
Only Your Name
Final Chorus (Bigger, Harder)
I leave it all for Your Name
You paid the price, You took my shame
You my portion, You my reward
I chose the cross, I chose the Lord
Last ones lead, proud ones fall
Kingdom rising through it all
I lose my life, I live again
Jesus, I leave it all for You
Outro
First are last, last are first
I follow You
No turning back
