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
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
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
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?
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 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 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
