Sanctify Lyrics

What good is a bullet
With no gun
What good is a flower
Without no sun
Oh but I want to feel something real
What good is a light a light
With no dark
What good is a king
Without a cross
Oh but I want to feel something real
Is that river wide
Is that river deep
Let me sanctify
Let me sanctify you baby
Is there a right
When is all is wrong
Is there partner
When left all alone
Oh but I want to feel something real
Is that river wide
Is that river deep
Let me sanctify
Let me sanctify you baby
Oh let me sanctify you
I want sanctify you
Is that river wide
Is that river deep
Let me sanctify you
Let me sanctify you baby

What good is a bullet
With no gun
What good is a flower
Without no sun
Oh but I want to feel something real
What good is a light a light
With no dark
What good is a king
Without a cross
Oh but I want to feel something real
Is that river wide
Is that river deep
Let me sanctify
Let me sanctify you baby
Is there a right
When is all is wrong
Is there partner
When left all alone
Oh but I want to feel something real
Is that river wide
Is that river deep
Let me sanctify
Let me sanctify you baby
Oh let me sanctify you
I want sanctify you
Is that river wide
Is that river deep
Let me sanctify you
Let me sanctify you baby

What is the Meaning of Sanctify?

An exploration of longing and the human need for connection, this song delves into the depths of emotional yearning. The lyrics express a desire to feel something real and meaningful, using metaphors such as a bullet without a gun or a flower without sun to emphasize the emptiness felt when something vital is missing. The repeated plea "let me sanctify you" suggests a deep desire to make something pure, holy, or special out of an otherwise ordinary relationship. It's about wanting to elevate love and connection to a higher level, even in the face of adversity or loneliness. The song ultimately underscores the profound human need for genuine relationships and experiences that transcend superficiality.
