[Verse 1]

Days that we speak

I believe that you are right

Shouldn't chase the demons and the phantoms of the night

Some treat as lovers

Some treat as slaves

This fusion of insight is all that we imagine


[Verse 2]

Speak to me clearly

You're the magnet to my soul

I get so distracted to reason with it all

Like the faithful

I'm clinging to the edge of every world

Spinning in creation

So afraid to let my feelings really show


[Verse 3]

Teach me to teach me

How the keys unlock the door

As we open it we surrender, holding hands with many more

There's a feeling that's coming

There's a feeling so real

To justify, to magnify, to realize that everything is love


[Pre-Chorus]

Now, after all the love you have

You can always get it back

Knowing how you really see

Knowing it will come to you

Knowing it can really be


[Chorus]

Magnificate, magnification (Magnification)

Magnificate, magnification (Magnification)

First you're smaller being alive

Growing taller learn to survive

Magnificate, magnification (Magnification)

Magnificate, magnification (Magnification)

First you're smaller being alive

Growing taller learn to survive


[Verse 4]

Perception of living

I realize I'm not alone

The rings that divide us

Break again upon the stone

I will show you a necklace

Where the pearls would all be lost

Without the thread between together

This would be the golden thread of trust


[Verse 5]

Speak to me, teach me

Magnify the truth you are

Waiting for the rebeginning birth of every star

A symbol is planted

On the brow of every child

To justify, to magnify

To realize that everything is love


[Pre-Chorus]

Now (Now) giving all the love you have (Now)

You will always get it back (Now)

Giving all the love you have (Now)

You will always get it back

Giving all the love you have

Giving all the love


[Chorus]

Magnificate, magnification (Magnification)

Magnificate, magnification (Magnification)

First you're smaller being alive

Growing taller learn to survive
