My Sanctuary

Where I stand is where I am
here in this sanctuary in the 
physical, but been gifted in the 
spiritual by the most high to 
prophesy so lyrical, so like Ezekiel
I been sent to minister these lyrics
whether you listen or hear it and
that's why this right here, everything
that represents the kingdom of God
is my sanctuary.

I see myself as a young Solomon 
with these poetic words so I guess
you can call these my proverbs
and with every word I'm forcing
my way into history, I shed tears
emotionally as my pen bleeds so 
vividly, and this generation is so lost
it's like we're all looking for an identity
this world loves to point fingers, why
not point em at me point that knife, 
that gun, that cross at me, they know 
I fight for the cause yeah evidently.

So I ask you, find your sanctuary, take
the journey find yourself before death
finds you, I mean it's either that or wait
for reporters to eyewitness news you.
