lyrics

Justify
Paragraph by paragraph I justify my own means
Paragraph by paragraph I justify my self
To you alone and the lord above

And paragraph by paragraph I justify my own means

I take from you I take from him I want to be the real thing
I take from you I take him and I have nothing
For you along and the lord above

I take from you and all I have is everything I wanted
I take from you and all I have is
For alone and the lord below

So reign down on me
And reign down on me
Cause I am a gentle one

Paragraph by paragraph I justify my own means
Paragraph by paragraph I justify it
To you alone and the lord above

And reign down on me
And reign down on me
Reign down on me

And trap us in a warm embrace
Cause god is not afraid of me

And trap us in your warm embrace
Cause god is not afraid of me

And trap us in your warm embrace
Cause god is not afraid of me

And trap us in a warm embrace
Cause god is not afraid of me
