Stuntin' its nothin', I'm pushin' somethin' new every day

Back on the grind, keep easy on your mind
I'm one of a kind, the tops the bottom lineThrow a hand in the air, if it's like that
Throw a little paper out, if it's like that
Tell the chick to come here, if it's like that
Buy the whole fuckin' bar, if it's like thatHey hey, tell me if it's like that
Hey hey, tell me if it's like that
Hey hey, tell me if it's like that
Hey hey, tell me if it's like thatYo, aye yo, the watch is like that, the dough is like that
Bracelet, the bronzes, I ball just like that
Coupe on lows, know you all gon' like that
Sit so right, at least 4 gon' fall backDude stop frontin', problems, you don't want that

When it comes to gettin' paper my life stack
Hoes are slut, niggas gon' like thatThen I go expose 'em and show 'em that's how we live, hey
Mami know we holdin' cause all of us got a 6
Rocafella the crew, you know we do it like that
Niggaz can't imitators, but you ain't quite like thatThrow a hand in the air if it's like that
Throw a little paper out if it's like that
Tell the chick to come here if it's like that
Buy the whole fuckin' bar if it's like thatHey hey, tell me if it's like that
Hey hey, tell me if it's like that
Hey hey, tell me if it's like that
Hey hey, tell me if it's like thatYou know I move with the snub, 'cause I'm like that
You don't really want beef, you ain't like that
Ma, come here, yeah, tell me if it's like that
And move the body real slow just like thatWhen Swizz slows down the beat it's all love
Slow motion for me like your ass is screwed up
Make it move like The Matrix when dude was duckin' slugs
Bleek the black sheep, mami now pick it upAye back on the grizzy with Swizzy back on the beat, hey
Rocafella the label the talk is to cease, decease
I'm here to kill 'em again, you fill 'em again
If the enemy ain't dead, we hit 'em again, popThrow a hand in the air if it's like that
Throw a little paper out if it's like that
Tell the chick to come here if it's like that
Buy the whole fuckin' bar if it's like thatHey hey, tell me if it's like that
Hey hey, tell me if it's like that
Hey hey, tell me if it's like that
Hey hey, tell me if it's like that

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Malik Thuston Cox (born on June 23, 1978) better known as Memphis Bleek, is a Brooklyn rapper who made his first appearance in Hip Hop on Jay-Z's debut album, Reasonable Doubt in 1996. Memphis Bleek regularly came in contact with rap legends such as The Notorious B.I.G. and Jay-Z during his childhood, and has collaborated with artists such as Beanie Sigel, Ja Rule and Missy Elliott, among others. "Memphis" is an acronym for Making Easy Money Pimping Hoes In Style.

Early years

Memphis "One Hit Away" Bleek's first mainstream rap vocals appeared on the Clark Kent produced song "Coming of Age", featured on Jay-Z's classic debut LP Reasonable Doubt. Shortly after, Bleek became the first artist signed to Roc-A-Fella Records.

"Coming of Age", ironiclly, was also the title of Memphis' debut LP, which didn't create massive records sales and chart-topping singles as his labelmate and peers' albums had. The same was the case of his second LP, "The Understanding", and third, "M.A.D.E", though the latter spawned his largest amount of sales yet (900,000).

Get Low label and rivalries

In the time between the releases of his second and third albums, Memphis Bleek started his own label, Get Low, which in turn led to the signing of former Junior MAFIA member Lil' Cease. The name of the label has sparked a hip-hop rivalry, or beef, between Memphis Bleek, JT tha Bigga Figga & The Game, the former of which built an independent record label with the same title.

Memphis Bleek was also caught in the middle of the epic Jay-Z and Nas battle, in which Bleek gained a few enemies, most notably Nas and Mobb Deep. Despite boosting Jay-Z and Nas's careers, the beef did little to help Bleek gain any more popularity than he had already attained.

Later years

Remaining one hit away, on May 17, 2005, Bleek released his fourth album titled "534" , in reference to the building he & mentor Jay-Z grew up in, located in the Marcy housing projects of Brooklyn. However, like many of Bleeks previous releases the album suffered in sales, despite decent exposure of the Swizz Beatz produced single 'Like That'.

In fall 2005, Memphis Bleek told MTV that he was recording an album called "The Process", that he would describe as a make or break album, saying "I want to do an album that's through the roof, I want to do a classic album. I feel that if this album I'm not recording is a classic, I'm not even gonna put it out. I have to do it bigger than anybody has ever done it. I have to make a good record this time, not just talking-junk records."The rapper has worked on the album since 2005 and during that time frame he would release the songs "Hustla", "Get Ya Money Off" and "Let It Off". During this time, he would also leave Roc-A-Fella after Jay-Z told him he could run his own company and had the proper distribution deals to do so. He found a new home in 2009 when he signed to Mass Appeal Entertainment which is where he will release his long anticipated album The Process is yet.
