Sanctified Songtext
von Justin Timberlake

I was acting like I didn′t know who it was, but okay
I know, I, I know, I know who's up there, y′all
The guy is right up there
Th-th-that, th-th-that right there is the mighty, mighty JT, JT

You know I'm an animal (animal)
I belong in the wild, wild, wild
When I get out of control
Ain't no bringin′ me down, down, down

Yeah, you know I go crazy
I go off the wall, no MJ, but I′m walking on moons, it's amazing, baby
I know you′re a good one (good one), closest thing to a saint
So I come alive every time we interchange
Yeah, don't condemn me
I get down on my knees and confess to your temple
You take me and serve me mercy


Somеthing about how we break all of the rulеs
Make a sinner feel so blessed
You take all of my wrongs, move right along
Take me and fix my mess
Get me up when I′m low, hand on my soul
Like you see right inside
I come out a new man, no blood on my hands, uh

Sanctified
Rid me of my sins, then you forgive them
Make me a new man and I'm
Sanctified

Sanctified
Rid me of my sins, take and forgive them
Can I get a witness?
Sanctified

Ooh, sanctified
Eeh, yeah

Ooh, I gotta come to you (only you) when I wanna repent
Surrender my all right at your throne and do it again
Yeah, you crucify me
Burn me up until there′s nothing left inside me

Right hand to your every word (every word)
My religion, my love
Baptized in your ocean, willing and open, never enough
Yeah, you never judge me
You just take your halo, put it right above me


And there's something about how we break all of the rules
Make a sinner feel so blessed
You take all of my wrongs, move right along
Take me and fix my mess
Get me up when I'm low, hand on my soul
Like you see right inside
I come out a new man, no blood on my hands

Sanctified
Rid me of my sins, then you forgive them
Make me a new man and I′m
Sanctified

Sanctified
Rid me of my sins, take and forgive them
Can I get a witness?
Sanctified

Ooh, sanctified
Eeh, yeah

I get down on my knees every night and I pray for you (I get down on my knees, yeah)
Don′t you see you're my savior? I′m made for ya, yeah
I get down on my knees every night and I pray for you (hallelujah, hallelujah)
Don't you see you′re my savior? (Look, I swear it's only right that I)

Hold the toast just for my protection
Need the Holy Ghost ′til the resurrection
But I still might beckon angels
My complexion to swoop down your direction and make your connection to me
Yeah, just a bit stronger
I know it's wrong to sit back and conjure
A million ways for you to heal the monster
That has been postured inside my loins

Yuh, boing
That's what it do when I see you
I know you see through me and I ain′t see-through
But you never treat me like I am fecal matter
Wow, had to smile
I know I ain′t spoke to you like this awhile
I know you cried me a river like the Nile
But hell, I got baptized in it and came out

So, so, so, so much better
Know that I could never try to measure the weight of your glory
But sometimes, with you, it's like my head′s in the pool
And my eyelids have opened in chlorine
Ah, that hoe can burn
But in return, all I discern is to be different
One has to unlearn and just be

Sanctified
Rid me of my sins, then you forgive them
Make me a new man and I'm
Sanctified

Sanctified
Rid me of my sins, take and forgive them
Can I get a witness?
Huh, sanctified

Ooh, sanctified
Eeh, yeah, huh
Ooh, sanctified
Eeh, yeah (okay)
