letra de powerful parables - christcentric
[hook]
these are earthly stories with a heavenly meaning
on its weight we should be heavily leaning
christ gave them to man as a statement of use
powerful parables ill-strating his truth
[verse 1]
there was a rich man luxurious wealth and property
and lazarus imploring his help in poverty
instead of giving gauze he would send his dogs to l!ck the sores
of this pauper outside his doors
with no offer of grub just a ration
in love with his stashing, the fashion of incompassion
denied, then came the day the man died
and was carried by angels to abraham’s side
now when the rich man’s health and his wealth was taken
in h-ll he awakened and felt like he’s baking
in flames that raged and can’t be gauged by fahrenheit
amazed when he gazed and saw lazarus in paradise
he can’t fathom why abraham has him
and what separates is a great chasm
have mercy he’s cursed on this side of the border
he’s thirsty, dip his fingertip to bring a sip of water
smoking with no emphysema
and he couldn’t cool off if lazarus brought a drink of zima
if memory serves correct he’d disrespect him
and now they’re on the opposite ends of the spectrum
his life was a big mishap and now it’s a wrap
and it’s too late to bridge the gap
he begged lay death aside
let lazarus and this message rise, before the rest have died
so they’d best decide, he replied
they’d deny if his corpse stood up and testified
now burn for eternity with your soul disturbed
let the living behold those who hold my word
when you’re rich and don’t benefit other men with it
see the rich man and lazarus that this can be hazardous
before it ends and your life’s regrettable
know this can be you and not hypothetical!

[verse 2]
a farmer proceeds to sow seeds in different soil
to observe which herb grew and which would spoil
and the path’s results of agriculture
no increase the seeds a feast for a pack of vultures
some he’d throw around, try to sow it down in stony ground
but only found that it lacked moisture
they dried up and got fried up
while other seeds were tied up in a th-rn packed cloister
no room for growth, like a rope noose
those soon were choked of no use
the only produce he received was seed put down in good ground
he that has an ear here’s the understood sound
see the path is the heart where the truth was heard
and its power was devoured by the swooping birds
the devil takes away the planted seed so they can’t believe
nothing more than fantasies
heard the lies and the word arised from his unfertilized phony start
now to the stony heart
they grasp the truth, but with hard hearted attributes
they absolutely lack the roots
so there’s joy for a time until their hearts are tried
and trouble starts to rise and they apostasize
an unrepentant heart cinder block, can’t give a crop
‘cause the seed’s on top and not in the rock
the seed in the th-rns that i’ve spoken about
is when you caught up in the world and its choking it out
blinded to do the truth revealed
because the group that you feel needs the heimlich maneuver
while the earth that bears fruit
is the heart given to birth to hear truth and persevere
‘cause the heart’s the issue it has no worth
to plant seeds in some artificial astroturf

powerful parables ill-strating his truth
