Howdy ya'll! I thought I'd let you see the Moses Rap. A bunch of girls from my bible study had to put on a skit, so we wrote this rap. Some lines don't flow perfectly, but hey, we're just gals having fun, not song writers. XD
The Moses Rap (To be sung to the tune of "Fresh Prince of Bel Air":
Now, this is a story all about how My life got flipped-turned upside down And I’d like to take a minute Just sit right there I'll tell you how I became the prophet of Is-ra-el
Along the Nile, born and raised Pharaoh’s palace was where I spent most of my days Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool And killin’ a slave-master down by the pool When Pharaoh found out He was up to no good Startin making trouble in my neighborhood So I ran through the desert to the land of Midian Where I saved some shepherd chicks from Bevis and Butthead
I married one and had a couple kids Working for my pops-in-law was very fulfilling One day I was by Sinai, tendin my flock When this big ole bush just started burnin’ up!
I heard a voice, and it was God He said, “Yo Moses, check it—this is holy ground” I thought, this is bad, why’s God callin me out? He said, “You’re going back to Egypt to bust my people out”
But wait I ‘m a wanted fugitive there Besides you know I ca-ca-can’t speak so well Whatever Dawg, the Lord replied Who makes mouths so people can speak? Guess who Moses—That would be Me!
So I hopped on my camel and sped across the desert But when I talked to Pharaoh—oh man, he was trippin I said, DUDE, let my people go! He said, “I need these slaves to build by kickin’ bachelor pad!”
Well God did brung it—he threw the gauntlet down Containing every kind of plague you would ever imagine! If anything I can say my God is tremendous But that Pharaoh was both a hater and scrappy!
Well God finally got him and he died in the sea My posse crossed to the desert yelling, ‘What up G, we’re free’ After 40 years just hanging out We were finally there to enter the Promised Land
pause (or die in Moab)
So, I hope you liked it. It may be edited if we get some inspiration later...lol. One of the girls in my bible study, one of the leaders, actually, I'll call her Caitlin Lang. She's pretty much awesome and has the greatest sense of humor ever. Here are some of her quotes:
"Dude, what's with all this "thee, thy, and thou" junk? I think we need to break it down into CLV - the Caitlin Lang Version. So, see, there was this Awesome Dude, and people called him Jesus..."*proceeds to rap for about five minutes on Jesus*
"Jesus already overcame the world, thus thwarting my plans for world domination. But I'm OK with it because living forever is way cooler than being called Caitlin Greatlin until I'm 'accidentally' assassinated..."
So yeah...it's fun. Epic fun. Yay for friends and college and God! Woot! *starts singing* Cause it's a great DAY to be alive, I know the sun's still shinin' when I close my EYES, yeah, there's some hard times in the NEIGHborhood, but why can't every day be JUST THIS GOOOD!
