Glad to be of help.  Wasn't trying to be funny, though ...

How about "buzama"?  Or "kakkou warui"?

I have never seen "let's face it" used to primarily mean "let's go for
it" or "get at it, gang".  In my usage (and my colleagues agree),
"let's face it" is an invitation to face reality and start from there.
"Let's face it" urges the audience to stop imagining or avoiding
things and realize what exactly you have to deal with.  "Let's face
it" can be used to initiate a positive attitude towards problem
solving, but the main connotation of this phrase is to become realistic.

By the way, I apologize for typing in English.  My Japanese front-end
processor is not available at the moment.
