Side Effects

{atmospheric electric piano

chords} {rhythmic vinyl crackle} (ooh-yeah) {warm sub-bass pluck} You swear you don’t

chase, but here you go again,

Pulling up like you ain’t say we were just friends.

Got your pride in the passenger seat,

But your eyes keep giving away what you mean.

You talk slick, I talk slicker,

Whole room freeze when we look at each other.

Everybody knows what it is… Ain’t gotta say it,

we both get the picture.

Don’t call my phone if you bored tonight,

Don’t waste my time if you ain’t outside.

You say you different every other week… Boy,

pick a side.

I’m a bad habit…

You keep trying to quit.

One taste… Now you all in your feelings.

Acting so cool…

Till I’m walking away.

Now you blowing my phone Like you got something to say.

You can’t replace this… You already know.

That’s why every time I leave… You come back for more.

{soaring vocal run} Big energy,

don’t play with me.

You ain’t the only one checking for me.

I walk in, heads turn naturally,

I don’t need nobody validating me.

You talking loud but your actions weak,

You want a queen with a fantasy.

If I leave, don’t panic please… Just know you lost good company.

If it’s pressure…

Apply it. If it’s love…

Don’t hide it.

I’m not waiting…

I’m deciding.

{smooth Rhodes

chords}

You had your shot… Now watch somebody else take it.
