lyrics

We see something off in the distance/
Looks like a fig tree, a source of nutrition/
It'd be awesome if it's in/
Season, for eating, following Jesus' leading, to whom we all sit and listened/
In a moment I guess we'll see, whether it's the recipe/
We yearn on our famished journey from Bethany/
No one's as hungry as me/
But by the sound of Jesus' stomach, he's as hungry as hungry can be/
I deduce, indeed this tree is so spruce/
That from the leaves it produced, it's got to have produce/
Mesmerized, I can't look past the site/
I'm so wrapped uptight, the thought of it whets my appetite/
I imagine the flavor the tree tastes/
The agony I savor with each pace/
It looks like even Jesus can relate/
Cause he's straight fixed on it like fish eat bait/
Usually I'm more inclined/
To be concerned with end times, now I yearn for enzymes/
Overcome with exhaustion, the sun was just scorching/
We come upon this fig tree to a ton of misfortune/
It was unexpected, he'd become neglected/
As its barrenness apparently was undetected/
Jesus denied of its fruit/
So he cursed it, instantly it dried up from the roots/
Before we tip scales, to the weight of anger/
It was a way to anchor, before that ship sails/
We got intel, revealing what God entails/
If inside was unveiled or we impaled his entrails/
I'm not trying to be myopic, with my optics/
But such a difficult topic, he's not your typical prophet/
With his miracles evident, as empirical evidence/
Teaching through the physical, deep spiritual reference/
He was setting a precedence, greater than our present tense, presidents/
Governors, or any others of reverence/
Oh my gosh it's frightening/
We have never seen a prophet like him/
