[Spoken Word: Consequence]
Moses once had an encounter with a wise man
He told him he wouldn’t be patient enough to foresee the blessings he had for him within a certain timespan
Moses replied with “Bear with me”
“If I’m the [?], Lord knows the carriers wеre with me”
But the onе with the wisdom, it came with enlightenment
Said it would be too quick to judge and indict him
But Moses gave him the word, so they came to an understanding
That if he interrupted him once, they would no longer be companions
So they embarked on a journey, strolled down the seashore where Moses assumed they would do the same deeds of the Peace Corps
But when they boarded the boat and he put out a point that made them start sinking
Moses looked at him like, “What could you be thinking?”
That’s when the wise man reiterated, “You don’t have the intestinal fortitude to do what you was told to do”
But after they had a little back-and-forth, he said, “I’ma continue on so I can bring you what I was ‘posed to show to you”
They came to a little boy who was playing with other youth
And the wise man killed him and Moses looked all completely spooked
“You just killed somebody innocent, who’d never hurt a soul”
And that reaction made the wise man say, “It’s time for me to go”
But Moses said, “Wait, please, give me one more chance, and I’ll prove to you that I’m worthy of the wisdom that you possess in your hand”
So they arrived in a new town, right after that
Both of them were hungry and no one would provide them a snack
Still, the wise man set up a wall that was about to collapse
And Moses said, “In my opinion, you should’ve charged ‘em for that”
And on that note, the wise man began to walk away quietly
But said, “Before I leave you, I’ma explain our journey in its entirety”
As for the people on the boat, their sinking was parallel to irony
‘Cause God chose to bring them home instead of subjecting them to tyranny
As for the little boy, God knew that he was gon’ disobey his parents
So he chose to replace this son with a righteous one that would never leave them embarrassed
And as for the world that seem to be broken
Underneath it was the treasure that belonged to a few orphans
And these were the things that Moses wasn’t patient enough to see come into fruition
The moral of the story is never let the Devil compromise your vision
And be patient
[Chorus: KayCyy]
I’ve gotta learn to trust you
I do in your eyes
I’ve gotta learn to trust you
I learn in your eyes
I’ve gotta learn to trust you, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’ve gotta learn to trust you, yeah, yeah
