John The Baptist

Yo what the deal with this?
Voice crying out in the wilderness
Make the ways of the Lord straight, no hills in it
Level out the valley's, make plains, he's revealed to kids
Prophesied by Isaiah, he's fulfilling it
Spirit of Elijah with the same clothes killing it
Camel hair with the leather belt no frills in it
What did you expect to see, some kind of silkiness?
Not a reed bent easily, he was built for this
More than a prophet, he's a man on a pilgrimage
The messenger written of in Malachai, spillin' it
Repent of your sins, He can cleanse all your filthiness
There's a New Era coming through, can you get with this?

The kingdom of heaven's at hand
Repent the kingdom of heaven's at hand
And switch, the kingdom of God is at hand
Ya dig? the kingdom of Christ is at hand

Check the hype bro, cat's called John the Baptizer
Wild style, vow since a child, Nazarite stuff
Cousin of the Son, born of parents that are righteous
Leaping in the belly when the fetus of the Christ comes
Mary and Elizabeth can identify the
Spirit of the Lord is in here, queue the choir
Not a lot of singing from the pops Zechariah
Vocalizing doubts had him silent for the 9 months
Neighbors get floored when the Lord broke his silence
Couldn't even chat, now the cat prophesies stuff
All that God's done got 'em wondering the kind of
Man he's gon' be, a strong beast from the wild cuz
Fast forward, John's at the Jordan spittin' fire
B3AR FRUIT
Axe is at the root brood of vipers
There's a new steeze and you'll see the Messiah
Is coming next, I'm just here to prep till His time coz..

Peep the drama
Christ comes just like He taught us
John baptizes little Cousin in the water
Dove drops with a little ac' from the Father
Saying that He's pleased with Him, leaving them awestruck
Dudes must've missed when he spit what his job was
Seeing that when Jesus baptizes, all come
Upset thinking He's a threat to what John does
Not so, John got low, giving props up
I need to shrink so that He can be honored
He holds the mic, I'm the hypeman, I'm not much
He get's the Bride, I'm the sidegroom, it's not dumb
I'm gon' rejoice at His voice, I'll be all done
Same team say the same thing, see the plot bro?
Last words lotta cats heard 'fore he got plucked
Later on he fades from the pages, he's got one
Scene left, he will see death but it's fine coz..

End the saga
Foul plot, mouth got him locked up
There for a while so his doubts start to pop up
Sent a couple cats just to ask, was I wrong cuz?
Came back telling of the acts He'd accomplished
After peeps left Jesus repped for him hard bro
Saying he's the greatest man born of a mama
Wonder what the reason they seized him at all was?
Let me go back, show the wackness upon us
Herod wiled out, took the spouse of his mom's son
John put him on blast saying it was wrong but
He's shook knowing peeps took him for a prophet
She's not, fiending for a opp just to squash him
Chance comes, he receives a dance from her daughter
Anything you want will be yours, is the offer
Mama says, bring me John's head on a charger
But he's just a finger, the kingdom of God comes
