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 me I was a girl, you was a man I was too young to understand I was naive, I just believed Everything that you told me Said 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 much More 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 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 [Chorus] Wakin' 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 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 were dead wrong said you were right Did what I could just to survive Couldn't believe this was my life Flickering 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 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 [Chorus] Side effects Side effects Side effects Side effects Hey 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?

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 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 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 [Chorus] Side effects Side effects Side effects
