about

“Make The Hood Healthy Again” is an artful experiment in collaboration and mutual benefit across disciplines of art and entrepreneurship..

Highlighting the importance of ownership and legacy with articulate and urgent lyricism, Bryce The Third has set out to use his craft and platform in music to bring his favorite communities together.

Borrowing the book title of the same name written by Detroit entrepreneurs Asa Lockett and Rafa Wright, Bryce sets out on a similar mission as the authors. To uplift and empower the community through holistic wellness.

This is grown man sh*t.

lyrics

This beat speaking
Heat seeking
knees weaken /

I speak back
Let’s converse
My sneaks squeaking/

I’m called to it
I can’t stop
They need reason/

Right now
Forever more
Believe season/

I speak English
speak Buddha
speak, Jesus/

I speak Judas,
speak losers,
speak treason/

both sides of the track for my complete season/

both sides of the tape for the complete teachings/

Sit alone in a room
just for some deep thinking/

Like how we take what we see
and how we can each reach it/

and how we take what we seed
to what we could reap trees with/

and how we taking the fruit so we can feast/
Show the babies how we do what we doing and take a piece/

Put it in their palm
That’ll be the legacy we leave/

For betterment
a better me
I bet he be/

For when I leave
I bet she be ahead a me/

Now That’s talk of a leader/
Palm on a heater/

I don’t even like guns but my Mom say I need her/

I told her calm down not to worry bout her child/
Baby gone are the times paul masson by the liter/

First class man
First class seater/

shortstop to longterm I’m like Jeter/

No woman alive’ll ever tell you that I beat her
Better yet they prolly couldn’t wait to tell you how I treat her/

Business man
pure art
What a creature/

Raps fun
Up value
every feature/

Elevate,
It’s February I’m in a t shirt/

Came a long way from only ever seeing Inkster/

But it ain’t a win til we all win/

Keep the door cracked til we all in/

It’s a marathon get a jog in/

Turn a whirlwind to a long-wind/

Flower grow outta the ground from manure/

Watch the maneuver of entrepreneurs

I’m Asa Lockett Rafa Wright on tour/

Asa Lockett Rafa Wright on time/

Rafa get the groceries to your door/

Bryce’ll get the groceries to your mind/

Asa held the solar powered Sundays/

Brycie making sure that you gon shine!/

Made a life my favorite day is Monday/

Came from having sales up on the line/

Kicked my Mama door up on a Tuesday/

We heard Brycie prolly stay inside/

Thought I'd bail up out that bitch on Thursday/

My surprise I had to stay inside/

Fought that case about a year of Fridays/

No surprise I never stay inside/

Bitch I’m raw like you never seen raw before
Pick your jaw off the floor
we got work to do/

This ain’t for the little nigga got percs to do
This is pertinent, purposeful/

Let these words be like church
would you working thru?/

Pray for guidance
protection on Earth for you/

There’s a diamond
that’s resting in dirt for you
Sometimes it call to increase where you searching through/

This expansion,
This a mansion
This emancipation
This ain’t susceptible to cancellation/

I been going through it an done took my lumps
I got knots on my head and some lacerations/

GOD be like boy yeah
boy yo ass is patient

cuz I hustle like my hands was Haitian/

Just a 5’ 8” nigga from the town
but I swear my wingspan THE NATION/

Sock it to me
Papa told me no weapon formed will
ever prosper or hold me/

I come from the spot that leave niggaz with popsicle tosies,
They circle then pop at ya rosies/

Was so disillusioned “the top” was to cop me a rollie/

I’m a thot look I know see
the crib where I rock had me so sleep
was counting on nothin but wolves it was no sheep/
No cotton we sleeping on wood with a floor sheet/

This will force you to dream
and your dream was your ticket
which force you to swing
when you swing don’t you miss it/

Extortion, extinction
They thinking we slipping/

It’s more to receive
I believe we gon get it/

Tap in and be my apprentice/

Holla at Dre if you looking to book me
better have ownership all in yo sentence/
