Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Is this the age of the thunder and rage?
Can you feel the ground move 'round your feet?
If you take one step closer, it'll lead to another
The crossroad above's where we meet
I shout our for shelter, I need you for something
The whole world's out, they're all on the street
[PreChorus]
Control yourself
Love is all you need
Control yourself
In your eyes
[Chorus]
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Be a part of me, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, set yourself free
[Verse 2]
In pictures of living, a bloodshot of vision
Sweet miracles and strange circumstances
I see the sun up, the showdown, the cool winds that blow down
On the big beat that lifelong romance is
You've got a gun in your hand, you're makin' self plans
Stay with me all through the night
[PreChorus]
Control yourself
Love is all you need
Control yourself
Open up your heart
[Chorus]
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Be a part of me, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, set yourself free
[Verse 3]
You can't stop the world for a boy or a girl
Sweet victims of poor circumstances
But you can pour back the love, sweepin' down from above
Givin' hope and makin' more chances
Well, I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll come back down here and show me the way
[PreChorus]
Control yourself
Love is all you need
Control yourself
Open up your heart
[Outro]
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify yourself, set yourself free, yeah
Whoa
Whoa
Sanctify, sanctify yourself, sanctify
Sanctify, sanctify yourself, sanctify
