World Series Avenue: This rap from a Cubs minor leaguer is the freshest thing you'll hear all day

Cubs fans aren't the only ones living and dying with every pitch.

John Williamson - a pitcher for the Cubs' Class-A affiliate in South Bend - created a rap about the big-league club and it's pretty incredible:

Here's an excerpt of that rap, posted by Darnell McDonald, the Cubs' mental skills program coordinator:

"'Bout to win 100 games,
J-Hey 'bout to make a play, 
Lester get the K, 
We feelin' fresh today, 
Got the 'dub' yesterday. 
New team with the World Series attitude. 
Road to the 'ship: That's the World Series avenue. 
I'm feelin' like the baddest dude, 
Fowler on the bases, 
Yeah, we winnin' pennant races, 
That's the Wrigley renovation."

Killin' it, dude.

This isn't new for Williamson, the Cubs' 23rd-round pick in the 2015 MLB Draft.

The left-handed pitcher is actually a rapper, too, by the name of Swilson (formerly J Willy).

His album hit iTunes and Spotify in February. 

Check out some of his stuff on his YouTube page.

Here's to more Cubs raps as the year goes on, Swilson.
