Gen Z: Isaiah 3
1Yo, check it, the Lord, the boss of the squad, is taking away the whole vibe from Jerusalem and Judah—no bread, no water, it’s a whole drought, fr.
2The strong dude, the warrior, the judge, the prophet, the wise ones, and the OGs, all gone.
3The captain of fifty, the respected dude, the advisor, the crafty builder, and the smooth talker, all MIA.
4I'm gonna have kids run things, and the little ones are gonna be in charge, no cap.
5Everyone’s gonna be stressing each other out; the kid’s gonna be acting all proud against the elders, and the low-key gonna front on the respected.
6When a dude grabs his bro from the fam and says, "You got drip, be our leader and manage this mess.”
7On that day, he’ll be like, "Nah, I can’t heal; I got no food or clothes in my crib, don’t make me lead the squad."
8Jerusalem’s totally wrecked, and Judah’s down bad, 'cause their words and actions are straight-up against the Lord, flexing on His glory.
9Their faces are all sus, and they’re out here exposing their sins like Sodom, not even hiding it. Woe to them! They’ve been dishing out bad vibes to themselves.
10Tell the good peeps it’s all good for them; they’re gonna enjoy the fruits of their actions, periodt.
11Yo, the wicked are gonna catch some major Ls; their actions will come back to bite them, no cap.
12My peeps be struggling, with kids acting all tough and women leading the way. They’re leading you astray, fr, and messing up the whole vibe.
13The Lord's stepping up to defend and judge the squad, periodt.
14God's about to call out the old heads and the big shots, 'cause y’all been draining the good stuff and leaving the poor empty-handed.
15Why you out here breaking my people and flexing on the poor? That’s a big no from the Lord of Hosts.
16The Lord's saying, "Y’all daughters of Zion are acting all high and mighty, strutting around with those looks and fancy steps."
17So, the Lord’s gonna hit you with some shame on that crown, and reveal what you try to keep hidden, sus.
18On that day, God’s taking away all your flashy stuff and those cute little accessories you flex with.
19The chains, bracelets, and mufflers? Yeah, those are getting snatched too.
20All the bonnets, leg bling, headbands, tablets, and earrings? Gone, fam.
21The rings and nose bling,
22The drip with the fits, and the capes, and the head wraps, and the curling tools,
23The shades, and the fine threads, and the hoods, and the veils.
24And it’s gonna be wild, instead of sweet vibes there’ll be stank; instead of a cute belt, a tear; instead of fresh hair, baldness; instead of a dope fit, sackcloth; and fire instead of beauty.
25Your guys gonna drop by the sword, and your strong ones in the battle.
26And her gates gonna be all sad and mournful; and she, being all alone, will sit on the ground.
