he who has ears, let him hear
let him here

i thought you would listen
but you didn’t even pay attention
when he was spittin’
even before this rhyme was written

before the parable of the tenants was even hittin’
i hope you hear it (hear it)
i hope you get it

i thought you would listen
but you didn’t even pay attention
when he was spittin’
even before this rhyme was written

bеfore the parable of thе tenants was even hittin’
i hope you hear it (hear it)
i hope you get it

he was the youngest of two
soon to be the first in his family to finish school
and he took pride in the fact he always finished his food

they said, he always kept his nose in a book
and if you were looking for him everyone knew where to look
he even knew how to cook
some good greens and cornbread
sweet potatoes, some rice and beans or short ribs
on his forehead

were many kisses
his momma told him to stay away from any argumentative drama

she said, be aware of your surroundings ’cause you look nice
what’s around you ain’t always what it looks like, like
he turned and smiled, right before he took flight
and said, “momma i’m tight, you know i’ll be alright”

so, just like on any other day
he grabbed his bag and went about his way
but papa had more to say

“hey!” son, i want you to do some work did you get that?”
he said, “papa, i’ll do it as soon as i get back” (as soon as i get back)

i thought you would listen
but you didn’t even pay attention
when he was spittin’
even before this rhyme was written

before the parable of the tenants was even hittin’
i hope you hear it (hear it)
i hope you get it
i thought you would listen
but you didn’t even pay attention
when he was spittin’
even before this rhyme was written

before the parable of the tenants was even hittin’
i hope you hear it (hear it)
i hope you get it

but, first, there was another
the opposite of his younger brother
too much of rebel to do anything for his mother
he seldom kept a job, even in the summer
but she kept him around, knew he could do better
and plus, she loved him

he had a habit of mistaking patience for procrastination
anything he was asked to do provoked a confrontation
this was reputation he grew up with
needed to be given something he couldn’t screw up with

so, the father came and told him he had some work for him
he turned and told him, “no!” he wouldn’t work for him

the same work that his father had in mind
for his younger brother who said he would make it back in time (time, time)
see, bagging dimes (bags, drugs)
was what the oldest was known for
still, he changed his mind to go back and do them home chores
scrubbing floors and washing dishes with ajax
the “trusted” younger brother said, “skip it” and never came back (and never came back)

i thought you would listen
but you didn’t even pay attention
when he was spittin’
even before this rhyme was written

before the parable of the tenants was even hittin’
i hope you hear it (hear it)
i hope you get it

so, which one of the two did what his father asked him?
it was the oldest, the one with bad habits

“i tell you the truth, tax collectors and prostitutes
are entering the kingdom of heaven ahead of you

’cause john came and showed you “the way”
you didn’t believe him
but the unclean received him

and even after you had saw that they did
you didn’t repent, believe and turn away from your sin”

yeshua’s eloquent verdict was on the pharisees
as an example of legalism taken to an extreme
warning his followers of what to expect
said there’d be opposition ,like them, after his death
but what’s next?

have we become what he mentioned
modern day pharisees where those tendencies are persistent?
christians

battling over pride and deeds
we need to take another look at what it means to serve god, indeed

i thought you would listen
but you didn’t even pay attention
when he was spittin’
even before this rhyme was written

before the parable of the tenants was even hittin’
i hope you hear it (hear it)
i hope you get it

i thought you would listen
but you didn’t even pay attention
when he was spittin’
even before this rhyme was written

before the parable of the tenants was even hittin’
i hope you hear it (hear it)
i hope you get it

he who has ears, let him hear
let him here
he who has ears, let him hear
let him here
let him here let him here let him here let him here
let him here
