For the Love

AX24 (One and Done)

Letter to the Youth

Path of Least Resistance

This is the Jeopardy "Before and After" track. We combine "microphone checks" with "checks and balances" to explore the theme of creating progressive Hip Hop work, being creatively fulfilled and striving to sustained by art, all while the pages of life turn.

Lyrics:

Verse I 
(It’s been a) long time coming, hundred miles still runnin’ 
Constant grind to make the talent match the acumen and cunning 

Neef got me on the bar, bout my fitness and the self defense 
Cleary identify forces that we fight against (Cokely) 

Who want the oil under water Jesus was walkin’ on 
Keep beef with pigs like Israel and Lebanon 

They say, “Truth you sounding different on the beats you talkin’ on.” 
I’m tryna get my “Like, Water for Chocolate” on! 

Success in the end that what my sights set upon 
an AK clip gettin' fed into a megaphone 

Coming from a place where self-worth minimal 
Police run roughshod and Black Skin Criminal 

Situation critical, tired of hearing it?, 
'til. Everybody get it then, keep tweet sharing it 

To make quality synonymous with my name 
I Rock mics, cash checks, add balance to the game 

Evelyn on the hook: 

Oh Oh Oh…Oh Oh Oh Oh… 

Verse II 
Fin-ally, like Cece Peniston, excelling in the discipline 
Gave this music to the world, now thousands are listening 

(If you) think you hear the last of this nola-trinidadian 
Then I have news for allyuh like the Sunday Mornin' Guardian 

Normal Attitude, but not the average dude 
Guerrilla outlook…strive to grow my own food 

Community, rap and fam, how you managing that 
It’s a well-choreographed balancing act 

Sincere thanx to my queen for not lettin’ me slack 
Giving birth to my daughters and havin my back 

Progressive Lifestyle that reflect in the rap 
Peace and Knowledge add a Cipher, man I love being Black 

If I didn’t do it justice I would stop give it back 
Sub-stance the game lack, I add balance w/a track 
(brrrraaaP) 

To make quality synonymous with my name 
I Rock mics, cash checks, add balance to the game 

Verse III 
Cats here blast on pigs, part of the urban lore 
That’s real talk, but Black youth gettin’ murdered more 

Sayin’ “bout dat” and words you never heard before 
African linguistics broke the French like Toussaint L’Ouverture 

Chillin’ where debit cards don’t pump past 60 
Controlling this raging spirit like my name Bixby 

Bill, for the love I admit but still 
Think I’mma rap for free c’mon bitch get real! 

Anti -Buck dancin’, non-shuck jiving 
With these lyrics I’m striving for an uprising 

(Why?) Because the efforts of officials ain’t applaudable dude 
Living wage, good schools, and fresh affordable food 

Outta reach, purged voter rolls, population whitewashed 
scrapin’ for low wages so we ain’t livin’ with lights off 

To make quality synonymous with my name 
I Rock mics, cash checks, add balance to the game
