Music is my sanctuary

Music is my blanket

Emotionless the city lies

Cruel it is, it clouds my eyes

The dull the dark shades on my day

I live inside this place

Locked up inside my metal cage

Always tense and filled with rage

Above the concrete fields below

With you i wanna go, wanna go

Music is my sanctuary

Music is my blanket

I see only what i wanna see

I'll be only what i wanna be

My blanket covers me, yes

"Yeah, check it

Now as a yout man I was body poppin breakin on the lino

Traded in my lino for a pad and a biro

Used to stand in line just so as I could sign my giro

But now my ends meet in the best way that I know

(Hat, snare, kick) and the beats that go boom

See the music I consume to escape the doom and gloom

All the beats and melodies keep realities at bay

But what happens when the records done and starts to fade away"

Alone within myself again

I try to veil away my pain

The dirty grey surrounding me 'round

And now I hear no sound...

"I feel like Melle Mel from way back in the days

As i wonder how i keep from going under

I got trouble on my mind like my name is chuck d

And like marvin gaye it makes me wanna holler

When the music hits me I feel no pain

That's why i gotta put you on again and again

I take the needle off the technics and put it in my vein

All my troubles get crushed as the rush hits my brain

And away goes trouble down the drain"

I see only what I wanna see

I be only who I wanna be

My blanket covers me

Music is my sanctuary

Music is my blanket

I see only what I wanna see

I be only who I wanna be

My blanket covers me

Music is my sanctuary

Music is my blanket

You are my living world

You are my living world

You are you are you are my

My only living world....
