Side Effects |
It’s M.C. |
and Y.J. another hit, okay |
We lookin' fine, takin' off, saw us on a runway |
On any given Sunday, Monday, Tuesday |
They try to confuse me, I never let 'em use me I was a girl, you was a man |
I was too young to understand |
I was naive, I just believed |
Everythin' that you told me Said you were strong, protectin' me Then I found out that you were weak |
Keepin' me there under your thumb |
'Cause you were scared that I’d become |
Much more than you could handle |
Shinin' like a chandelier that decorated |
Every room inside the private hell we built |
And I dealt with it like a kid I wished I could fly away |
But instead, I kept my tears inside |
'Cause I knew if I started I’d keep cryin' for the rest of my life |
With you I finally built up the strength to walk away |
Don’t regret it but I still live with the side effects |
Wakin' up scared some nights still dreamin' 'bout them violent times |
Still little protective 'bout the people that I let inside |
Still a little defensive thinkin' folks be tryin' to run my life |
Still little depressed inside, I fake a smile and deal with the side effects |
Side effects, side effects, side effects |
Vacant inside, no one was there |
Couldn’t be real, had to keep quiet |
Once in a while put up a fight |
It’s just too much night after night |
After a while I would just lie |
You wasn’t wrong, said you was right |
Did what I could just to survive |
Couldn’t believe this was my life |
Flickerin' like a candle, doin' my best to handle |
Sleepin' with the enemy, aware that he was smotherin' |
Every last part of me so I broke away |
And finally found the strength to breathe |
I kept my tears inside |
'Cause I knew if I started I’d keep cryin' for the rest of my life |
With you I finally built up the strength to walk away |
Don’t regret it but I still live with the side effects |
Wakin' up scared some nights still dreamin' 'bout them violent times |
Still little protective 'bout the people that I let inside |
Still a little defensive thinkin' folks be tryin' to run my life |
Still little depressed inside, I fake a smile and deal with the side effects |
Side effects, side effects, side effects |
Hey, hey, hey, let’s go Hey magnifico or should I say magnificent? |
Ain’t nothin' worth your happiness |
And I ain’t carin' who you’re with |
Misery love company |
So we ain’t tryin' to hang with y’all |
Hurt you if ya let 'em in Gotta keep ya sucka smilin' |
Keep tryin' to play 'pology |
I tell him I ain’t bowlin' tho |
Think they want me outta here |
I tell 'em I ain’t goin' tho |
Side effects be drowsiness |
Loneliness, how is this? |
I think they call it hateration |
What can you prescribe for this? |
Forgive but I can’t forget |
Every day I deal with this |
I live with the side effects |
But I ain’t gonna let them get the best of me Forgive but I can’t forget |
Every day I deal with this |
I live with the side effects |
But I ain’t gonna let them get the best of me |
I kept my tears inside 'cause I knew |
If I started I’d keep cryin' for the rest of my life |
With you I finally built up the strength to walk away |
Don’t regret it but I still live with the side effects |
Wakin' up scared some nights still dreamin' 'bout them violent times |
Still little protective 'bout the people that I let inside |
Still a little defensive thinkin' folks be tryin' to run my life |
Still little depressed inside, I fake a smile and deal with the side effects |
Side effects, side effects, side effects |
