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 (haha)

They try to confuse me

I never let 'em use meI was a girl, you was a man

I was too young to understand

I was naive, I just believed

Everything that you told meSaid you were strong, protecting me

Then I found out that you were weak

Keeping me there under your thumb

'Cause you were scared that I'd become muchMore than you could handle

Shining like a chandelier

That decorated every room

Inside this private hell we built

And I dealt with it like a kid

I wished I could fly away but insteadI 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 effectsWakin' up scared some nights

Still dreamin' 'bout the violent times

Still a little protective 'bout the people

That I let inside

Still a little defensive

Thinkin' folks be tryin' to run my life

Still a little depressed

Inside I fake a smile and deal with theSide effects

Side effects

Side effects

Side effectsVacant 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 nightAfter a while I would just lie

You were dead wrong said you were right

Did what I could just to survive

Couldn't believe this was my lifeFlickering like a candle

Doin' my best to handle

Sleepin with the enemy

Aware that he was smothering

Every last part of me

So I broke away and finally

Found the strength to breatheI 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 effectsWakin' up scared some nights

Still dreamin' 'bout the violent times

Still a little protective 'bout the people

That I let inside

Still a little defensive

Thinkin' folks be tryin' to run my life

Still a little depressed

Inside I fake a smile and deal with theSide effects

Side effectsHey Magnifico or should I say Magnificent?

Ain't nothing worth your happiness

And I ain't caring who you're with

Misery love company so we ain't tryin' to hang with y'all

Hurt you if you let 'em in

Gotta keep your circle small

Keep tryin' to play

I tell him I ain't blowin' 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 the call it hateration

What can you prescribe for this?Forgive but I can't forget it

Everyday I deal with this

I live with the side effects

But I ain't gon let them get the best of me

Forgive but I can't forget

Everyday I deal with this

I live with the side effects

But I ain't gon let them get the best of meI 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 effectsWakin' up scared some nights

Still dreamin' 'bout the violent times

Still a little protective 'bout the people

That I let inside

Still a little defensive

Thinkin' folks be tryin' to run my life

Still a little depressed

Inside I fake a smile and deal with theSide effects
