I'm born down in the dirt

Born with mud in my eyes

Born kicked in the teeth

Born a loser in life

Put me on the pedestal so everyone can see

And listen to the gospel of the living mokery

Yeah

I will be

Yes sanctified

I will be

Yes sanctified

I'm negatively spent every single day

A tortured beaten soul in every single way

I'm such a goddamned fool for living the way I do

But I play the hand I'm given

Not the hand I choose

Yeah

I will be

Yes sanctified

I will be

Yes sanctified

Sanctified

Sanctified

Sanctified

Bring me down again

As a holy man

And bring me down again

As a holy man

And bring me down again

As a holy man

Like a holy man

I'm the hero of masses

King of the world

A disciple to conviction it's obvious yet absurd

How someone's way of living can become converse

From pauper to prince

A blessing to a curse

Yeah

I will be

Yes sanctified

I will be

Yes sanctified

Sanctified

Sanctified

Sanctified

I will be

I will be

I will be

Sanctified
