Smoke the Pain Away Lyrics


Yo, yo, I ain't the type that'll move from stress
No seeds, no sticks, that's all I twist
I twist backwoods up, that's what's up
When I come to your town better have some budI graduated grads, got my diploma
I could tell by your aroma you smokin' on Arizona
But you ain't got no Cali Kush
You're smoking on that backyard bushQuiet it's kept like hush, plus
You ain't never had no Florida Crip
Beat that'd have you tripping
Room start spinning, you beginning to get paranoid, start hearing noisesCan't forget about the Chitown 'dro
That's why we say it's the windy city
Ladies could blow, got a connect everywhere I go
Never catch me with less than an O, you knowYou got stress in your life then we smoking tonight
My ladies, gimme a light, ladies, gimme a light, ladies, gimme a light
Niggaz twist something up if you don't give a fuck if the Cali Kush
Got you stuck, my niggaz, gimme a light, niggaz, gimme a lightYou got your baby momma beefing with you, better have that reefer
With you, when she finish her speech let the leaf remove you
I inhale it deep like the chief of voodoo, handcuffing these beats

Like police will do you, that's how it worked for mePuffing on the purple, hit the booth with my eyes burgundy
I spit the truth on how the earth be
And all the bullshit I go through like dirt weed
And how always come through like birth, B
Ten pounds, eight ounces of herb, BI take two to the chest for all my niggaz that left
I blow it out, let them live through my breath
And everybody got a way to relax like everybody gotta pay their tax
If you live where I live everybody gotta blaze their gat
So everybody blaze up a sack, let's goYou got stress in your life then we smoking tonight
My ladies, gimme a light, ladies, gimme a light, ladies, gimme a light
Niggaz twist something up if you don't give a fuck if the Cali Kush
Got you stuck, my niggaz, gimme a light, niggaz, gimme a lightIt's been heavy on my mind, now I gotta leave it all behind
Smoke the pain away, chase the rain away
See the sun is gonna shine 'til the night
Smoke the pain away, chase the rain awayYa, ya, the president, he gotta legalize it
The governor, he gotta legalize it, mayor, mayor gotta legalize it
Let all my real niggaz lead their lives as they see fit, that's how I see it
God damn, I'm a genius when I'm lit, man fuck this shit man, Gu, twist
Something up, I'm gonna come out there, let the bridge ride on 'emIt's been heavy on my mind, now I gotta leave it all behind
Smoke the pain away, chase the rain away
See the sun is gonna shine 'til the night
Smoke the pain away, chase the rain awayGet low always smoking that la la la
You know Bleek always smoking that la la la
Young Proof always smoking that la la la
My nigga Cali always smoking that la la laSheik Breezy always smoking that la la la
Murder One's always smoking that la la la
Get low always smoking that la la la
Smoking that la la la, smoking that la la la, yeah

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.
