Lyrics
0:00Young Jeezy:]
0:01It's M C and Y J
0:01Another hit okay
0:03We lookin' fine takin' off
0:05Saw us on a runway
0:07On any given Sunday
0:09Monday Tuesday
0:11They try to confuse me
0:13I never let 'em use me
0:14I was a girl you were "the man"
0:16I was too young to understand
0:17I was naive I just believed
0:20Everything that you told me
0:22Said you were strong protecting me
0:24Then I found out that you were weak
0:26Keepin' me there under your thumb
0:28Cause you were scared that I'd become much
0:30More than you could handle
0:32Shining like a chandelier
0:34That decorated every room inside
0:35The private hell we built
0:39And I dealt with it
0:41Like a kid I wished I could fly away but instead I
0:45Kept my tears inside Cause I knew if I
0:49Started I'd keep crying for the rest of my
0:52Life with you
0:54I finally built up the strength to walk away
0:58Don't regret it but I still live with the side effects
1:00Wakin' up scared some nights still dreaming 'bout the violent times
1:04Still little protective 'bout the people that I let inside
1:07Still little defensive thinking folks be tryin' to run my life
1:11Still little depressed inside I fake a smile and deal with the side effects
1:16（Oh oh）
1:19Side effects （Oh oh）
1:23Side effects （Oh oh）
1:27Side effects （Oh oh）
1:30Vacant inside no one was there
1:32Couldn't be real had to keep quiet
1:34Once in awhile put up a fight
1:36It's just too much night after night
1:38After awhile I would just lie
1:40You were dead wrong said you was right
1:42Did what I could just to survive
1:44Couldn't believe this was my life
1:46Flickering like a candle
1:48Doing my best to handle sleeping with the enemy
1:51Aware that he was smothering every last part of me
1:58So I broke away and finally found the strength to breathe
2:01Kept my tears inside
2:03Cause I knew if I started I'd keep crying
2:07For the rest of my life with you
2:10I finally built up the strength to walk away
2:13Don't regret it but I still live with the side effects
2:17Wakin' up scared some nights still dreaming 'bout the violent times
2:20Still little protective 'bout the people that I let inside
2:24Still little defensive thinking folks be tryin' run my life
2:28Still little depressed inside I fake a smile and deal with the side effects
2:33（Oh oh）
2:35Side effects （Oh oh）
2:39Side effects （Oh oh）
