PigPod

[Introduction] [Verse 1 // Slow // Spoken Word] Let me tell you a story about my friend Pig-pod He was odd, and greedy Like a swine he would wine He was spoiled and needy A younger brother There was another A first Who thought Pig-pod the worst For now [Interlude] [Verse 2 ] Pod took the family legacy Prematurely He took it early A heist not a gift Bloodline burglary Leaving his father bereft [Interlude ] Pig didn't care he had what he needed To fill the hole The whole way All day Appetite sat-i-ated Friends elated Pig-pod radiated Glowed Cause he didn't know He was wasted Had wasted the Sacred But he found out As soon as the money ran out Squandered In the midst of a famine Pig-Pod pondered Where went the mammon? [Interlude ] He was hungry Dying Thirsty Crying Pod got a job with the hogs Fitting! But even they thought the mud he was covered in, the sin, from his sandal-less feet to unkempt chin. Unnatural. Those hogs they would rather run into the sea than see Pig-Pod squander the man he was supposed to be. And Pig knew it So he got up Stopped wallowing And left the pit He went home [Interlude ] On his way Pod rehearsed Each image in his mind worse Than the last I blew it. I’m not a son anymore. He’ll shun me, as he should. Who am I without my legacy? I’m done. I’m cooked. I’m hungry. I’m shook. [Interlude ] [Verse 3] Pig-Pod didn’t even make it home Before his father left his throne Running to him Squeezing him tight Before sealing his fatherly delight With a kiss The servants brought Ring and robe Shoes and food Hiss sorry swept aside By the joyous mood [Interlude ] Big Bro was heated Dad entreated While Pig-Pod danced Wisdom greeted— Big Bro in the form of truth Don’t you see Said Dad What Pig-Pod squandered in his youth Was fatal Your brother died Lost forever However Now He lives HE LIVES {Interlude ] Blessed is the Big Bro Who forgives
