(Genesis 2–3 – 80s rap + soulful hook)
In the cool of the day I walked with you,
In the shade of the trees where the river ran through.
Now I’m callin’ your name, but you don’t come near…
“Child, where are you?
Why you hidin’ in fear?”
In the beginning, I was speakin’ and the void got framed,
Light hit dark and it never was the same.
Sky up, seas down, land came through,
Every color, every creature, all born new.
I shaped a garden, let the rivers flow wide,
Gold in the ground, fruit hangin’ on the side.
Trees in the middle, life like flame,
One tree marked off—“Don’t touch that, okay?”
Then I flexed My love, worked dust in My hand,
Breath in his lungs, called him “son,” not “man.”
Walked with Adam like a Father with His kid,
Named every beast by the words that he did.
Saw him standin’ there, still alone in the breeze,
So I wrote him a poem with bone and sleep.
Pulled Eve from his side, not from under his feet,
Face-to-face mercy, My image complete.
We laughed in the garden, no shame, no pain,
Feet on the grass after gentle rain.
They ran like children, I smiled, “This is good,”
Heaven and earth
Walked together like they should.
In the cool of the day I walked with you,
In the shade of the trees where the river ran through.
Now I’m callin’ your name, but you don’t come near…
“Child, where are you?
Why you hidin’ in fear?”
[SERPENT]
I slid in silent when You weren’t in sight,
Found her by the tree in that perfect light.
“Did God really say you can’t taste this fruit?
He holdin’ you back, girl, that’s the truth.”
[EVE]
“You say I’ll be wise? My eyes opened wide?
Knowin’ good and evil like a god inside?”
She looked, she reached, bit down on the lie,
Passed it to Adam standin’ close by.
[ADAM]
He chewed that rebellion without a word,
Heart went dark where My voice once stirred.
Glory that wrapped them slipped off like mist,
They saw their nakedness
And felt that twist.
[GOD]
In the cool of the day, I walked that ground,
Called out “Where are you?”—no one found.
Not ’cause I lost ’em, I knew their place,
But I wanted them
To feel their space.
[GOD]
“Adam, where are you? Why you not near?”
[ADAM]
“I heard Your voice… I was filled with fear.
I’m naked now, so I had to hide,
Leaves on my shame, fig-cover pride.”
[GOD]
“Who told you that? Did you eat that tree?
The one I marked off, ‘Don’t disobey Me’?”
[ADAM]
“The woman You gave, she handed me the bite,
I just took it, Lord… it’s her, all right.”
[EVE]
“The serpent tricked me, spun that word,
I ate ’cause I liked
What I thought I heard.”
[GOD]
You blamed each other, then you blamed Me,
But the root of it all was you wanted to be free
From trust, from love, from dependin’ on My heart—
That’s how death
Tore this world apart.
In the cool of the day I walked with you,
In the shade of the trees where the river ran through.
Now I’m callin’ your name, but you don’t come near…
“Child, where are you?
Why you hidin’ in fear?”
I spoke to the serpent, “Dust be your road,
Crawl in the dirt with your lying load.
One day a Seed from this woman will rise,
You’ll bruise His heel,
He’ll crush your lies.”
Pain hit the ground, sweat hit the brow,
Thorns in the soil where roses bowed.
Gate of the garden closed with flame,
But I never stopped
Callin’ their name.
They tried fig leaves, self-made cover,
Religion sewn from shame and stutter.
I took a lamb, let innocent bleed,
Covered their bodies
With a better deed.
Skins on their shoulders, grace on their skin,
A shadow of the covering
I’d bring in My Son.
I looked in their eyes, “This won’t be the end,
I’ve got a plan,
And I’ll come as your Friend.
One day My Christ will walk your dust,
Carry your blame, your broken trust.
Cross on a hill where the serpent grins,
Then empty grave—
I’ll undo your sin.”
In the cool of the day I’ll walk with you,
Through a torn-up world, I’ll make all things new.
You still run and hide, but I draw you near…
“Child, I’m with you,
Don’t you live in fear.”
I covered you once with the skins you wore,
I’ll cover you again with the blood I pour.
From the garden’s pain to the cross outside—
I’m the God who seeks
When My children hide.
I saw you fall.
I still came close.
You broke My word—
I kept My promise.

Bible passages: Genesis 4:1–16
Where to find the story: Genesis chapter 4
(Cain and Abel – Genesis 4, hard rock)
Two brothers stand in the early light,
Same ground, same sky, same breath, same life.
Abel brings lamb with a trembling hand,
Smoke goin’ up like a worship stand.
Cain brings grain from a hardened heart,
Going through the motions, call it “doing his part.”
One fire rises, one fire falls,
One “yes” to God, one angry wall.
You see his eyes start turnin’ black,
Jealousy like a loaded track.
God says, “Son, check your heart inside,
Sin’s at the door,
Don’t let it ride.”
Blood on the field,
Cries from the ground,
Brother’s voice screaming
Without a sound.
Hands on the soil,
Heart running wild,
You can’t kill love
By killing My child.
Blood on the field—
I still hear it now.
Cain clenched fists in a fake half-grin,
“Let’s take a little walk, just you and me, friend.”
Out in the open where the wind blows cold,
Jealousy burning like a story told.
No jury, no judge, just rock in his hand,
Strike in the silence on the innocent man.
Dust in the air where his brother lay,
First human heartbeat
Beaten away.
Then I came down, called out his name,
“Where is Abel, your brother?”—not playin’ a game.
He said, “I don’t know, am I his guard?”
Hiding his hatred
Behind that shard.
Blood on the field,
Cries from the ground,
Brother’s voice screaming
Without a sound.
Hands on the soil,
Heart running wild,
You can’t kill love
By killing My child.
Blood on the field—
I still hear it now.
Your anger grew like a black eclipse,
You let that beast
Crawl past your lips.
I warned you, “Rule it, don’t let it rule,”
You chose the blade,
You played the fool.
Now the ground you stained won’t feed your hands,
Restless feet in a haunted land.
But even then I marked your face,
Judgment and mercy
In the same space.
No one touch Cain, though he spilled that life,
I still put a shield
Around his strife.
Justice spoken, mercy shown—
Even when you break
My own.
Blood on the field,
Cries from the ground,
History’s first murder,
Echoes all around.
Hands on the soil,
Hearts full of hate,
You can’t outrun
What you create.
But there’s another hill,
Another Son,
Where innocent blood
Will finally be enough.
Blood on the cross,
Drippin’ down the tree—
Where a Brother dies
To set
Cain’s children free.
“Where is your brother?”
The question still stands.
Look at the cross…
And see My hands.
