Below
is an exerpt from The Script. The Script
is a series of 18 articles found in the
new REAL Biblezine that translates select
passages of scripture into Hip-Hop format.
Matthew
13:47-52
47. Jesus’ flow was
impeccable and credible
as he said a new kingdom illustration he
had
them waiting for the translation…
each of his statements carried weight;
using metaphors so deep that you had to
meditate.
“Here’s another take…”
(Jesus said while
standing by the lake)
on the Kingdom of Heaven…
it’s just like
throwing a net into the sea.
Now when you do that you get all- kinds-of-
ism…
everything swimming from bass to brim ‘full
prism’.
48. So when the net is full it’s
time-to pull to shore.
You throw out the bad fish and pack-in
the good ones for store.
49. Believe it or not, I’m giving
you a brochure of the future:
the end of this age that’s coming for sure—No
metaphor’s
God’s Angels are coming down to settle
scores—
cutting the wicked from the righteous like
manicures.
50. Sever the chords; throwing the
whores into
sewers where they’ll burn for ever:
weeping and wailing will be their awards.
51. Now can you handle more?” His
disciples were like, “Sure!”
52. Then it’s hard to ignore the
obvious picture:
every one of my students trained to do
this is like a
store vendor who can pull from his
repository to tell of my story
so others can hear of me clearly and fear
me.
Flowing just as tight using old school
and new school theories.
