Let my people go

Description

Once I called you brother,
Once I thought the chance to make you laugh,
was all I ever wanted

And even now, I wish that God had chose another,
Serving as your foe on His behalf,
is the last thing that I wanted

This was my home,
All this pain and devestation, how it tortures me inside,
All the innocent who suffer,
from your stubborness and pride!

You who I called brother,
why must you call down another blow?
Let my people go!
Thus saith the Lord!

--


You who I called brother,
How could you have come to hate me so?
Is this what you wanted?
Then let my heart be hardened,
and nevermind how high the cost may grow!
This will still be so!
I will never let, your, people, go!!

Thus saith the Lord (Thus saith the Lord(-

I will not
Let your (-) Let my
People
go!!

This piece has been floating around in my head for a while and I finally got around to drawing it <3

This picture is based off the movie, The Prince of Egypt, which recounts the happenings in the book of Exodus, and the story of Moses. I remember looving this movie when I saw it when I was little. Watching it again now, the animation is gorgeous, and the music takes your breath away. :heart:

I drew Moses and Pharoah as anthros because, well, I can't draw humans well for one <xD;; Not yet anyway. And second, I just thought they'd look cool that way ^^

The words in italics is actually a song from the movie sung by Moses and Pharoah called 'The Plagues'

I'm very pleased with how this turned out, cause, for once this is how I pictured the image in my head to begin with xDD

Anyway, enjoy!!
