stephen the levite - john the baptist lyrics
yo, what the deal wit’ this, voice cryin’ 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 fulfillin’ it// spirit of elijah with the same clothes k!llin’ it/ camel hair and a 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 comin’ through, can you get with this//
hook: the kingdom of heaven’s at hand (get with it)/ repent, the kingdom of heaven’s at hand (get with it)/ and switch, the kingdom of god is at hand/ (get with it) ya dig? the kingdom of christ is at hand (get with it)//
check the hype bruh, cats call john “the baptizer”/ wild style vow since a child, nazerite stuff/ cousin of the son, born of parents that are righteous/ leapin’ 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 singin from the pops zechariah/ vocalizin’ doubts had him silent for the nine 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 wonderin’ 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 st++ze and you’ll see the messiah/ is comin’ next, i’m just here to prep ’til his time ’cause//…
hook
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/ sayin’ that he’s pleased with him, leavin’ ’em awestruck// dudes must’ve missed when he spit what his job was/ seein’ that when jesus baptizes, all come/ upset, thinkin’ he’s a threat to what john does/ not so, john got low, givin’ props up// “i need to shrink so that he can be honored/ he holds the mic, i’m the hype man, i’m not much/ he get’s the bride, i’m the side groom 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 bruh?/ last words lotta cats heard ‘fore he got plucked/ later on he fades from the pages he’s got one/ scenes left, he will see death, but it’s fine ’cause//…
hook
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, tellin’ of the acts he’d accomplished// after peeps left jesus was rep’ed for’em hard bruh/ sayin’ 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 wil’ed took the spouse of his mom’s son/ john put him on blast sayin’ it was wrong but/ he’s shook, knowin’ peeps took him for a prophet/ she’s not, fiendin’ for the opp just to squash ’em/ chance comes, he received 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//
