(Intro - Side Effect)
Man, you got cats that you know do a lil' of this, got cats that do that, but this is how we do it
Side Effect, Stress, Snowgoons, let's go, yo
(Chorus - Side Effect)
They all come and go, I seen it all befo', hey tell you what they heard, I'll tell you what I know
just from my swagga, you can tell I ain't no phony rapper, watch me tear this b**** down, Knockatomi Plaza
They all come and go, I seen it all befo', hey tell you what they heard, I'll tell you what I know
just from my swagga, you can tell I ain't no phony rapper, Side Effect, Snowgoons, Knockatomi Plaza
(Verse 1 - Side Effect)
Yeah, I smoked a lil bit back when I was jobless, popped in a listerine strip and passed the swab test
pitiful, hypocritical, some say, strip club on Saturday night, Church on Sunday
Philly murder rate is off the hook, it's so nuts, youngbuls poppin' cops up in the Dunking Donuts
I used to go in there and not expect to see blood, Meagan use to work in there she hooked me with free grub
In my alley I hear people bust their gat off, my street is littered with trash and Lotto scratch-off's
no winners, all losers, I'm even playin', prayin', for the day that I can go and call up the movers
Yo, my cousin got caught, hustlin' by the FEDS, it's a different 'tween quittin' and quittin' while you ahead
New Jacks tryin' to do the same things, Nino done Philly the City of Gangstaz, just wait till the Casino's come
(Chorus - Side Effect)
They all come and go, I seen it all befo', hey tell you what they heard, I'll tell you what I know
just from my swagga, you can tell I ain't no phony rapper, watch me tear this b**** down, Knockatomi Plaza
They all come and go, I seen it all befo', hey tell you what they heard, I'll tell you what I know
just from my swagga, you can tell I ain't no phony rapper, Side Effect, Snowgoons, Knockatomi Plaza
(Verse 2 - Side Effect)
Yo, I'm from Philly, the City that's so gritty and raw, where before we say our name we always say the word "bul"
this the bul Side Effect, sharp as a knife always stickin' out, with over 30 years of real life s*** to spit about
Whole truth and nothin' but the truth, you can't deny me, even if you neva met me you would still recognize me
'cause I'm so real, emotional rap that you can feel, I hug the mic the same way B.B. King hugged Lucille
Bare with me, I'm a work in progress, none the less I got my knee up ya neck and I won't let up the pressure
'cause soon you gon' realize, you need me, no avoidin', 'cause the cure for the snake b*** is made from the poison
Spit venom over tight loops and terrorize it, that'll make you turn ya mic booth into a prayer closet
realize I'm a marketing genius with this rap s***, I sell the same products I just know how to re-package it
(Chorus - Side Effect)
They all come and go, I seen it all befo', hey tell you what they heard, I'll tell you what I know
just from my swagga, you can tell I ain't no phony rapper, watch me tear this b**** down, Knockatomi Plaza
They all come and go, I seen it all befo', hey tell you what they heard, I'll tell you what I know
just from my swagga, you can tell I ain't no phony rapper, Side Effect, Snowgoons, Knockatomi Plaza
(Verse 3 - Side Effect)
Ayo my name rang Liberty bells in every hood from Philly I write street literature like Teri Woods
this is Terrence Wood, no relation, watch the company I keep cause of a**ociation, brings on participation
Rhymes I spit receive full paid scholarships to the most prestigious Black Universities
majoring in Mic Circuitry and Emcee Surgery, heard of me being taken out verbally that's absurdity
Seth Brundle flow, always on that fly s***, me and mics we like dogs and fire hydrants
attractions un-avoidable; it's definitely a sight to see, I've met a lot of mean rappers none of them is nice as me
I will sign you, neva release you, bind you to a contract, make you regret you eva tried to...
rhyme in the first place, you bore us, your wack a** verses are just devices used to s***e out your chorus
(Chorus - Side Effect)
They all come and go, I seen it all befo', hey tell you what they heard, I'll tell you what I know
just from my swagga, you can tell I ain't no phony rapper, watch me tear this b**** down, Knockatomi Plaza
They all come and go, I seen it all befo', hey tell you what they heard, I'll tell you what I know
just from my swagga, you can tell I ain't no phony rapper, Side Effect, Snowgoons, Knockatomi Plaza
Man, you got cats that you know do a lil' of this, got cats that do that, but this is how we do it
