Side EFX
Embracing Hope: Beneath Silent Skies, A Journey Through Healing
Lyrics
Southside on the track
Introduction, identifying the producer of the track.
Yeah
Expression of agreement or acknowledgment.
I pop a whatcha-ma-call-it, but it got side-effects
Consumed a substance with unknown name, experiencing unintended consequences.
Dick rock hard like a mouth test
Sexual reference, male arousal compared to a medical test.
Hit it from the side, that's a side-effect
Engaging in a sexual position with unexpected outcomes.
I'm a Zone 6 nigga, now you're my bitch
Asserting territorial identity in Atlanta's Zone 6.
Slurpin' up the drank and it got side-effects
Drinking a potent mixture with unintended effects.
Shit expensive, bitch, you thirsty like a cactus
Expensive lifestyle, comparing someone's thirst to a cactus.
Tried to DM a bad bitch, but he got catfished
Failed attempt at direct messaging a woman, falling victim to a fake online identity.
Doin' editin', turns out she's just a fat bitch
Engaging in online interactions, discovering deception.
Tryna keep her with the Wop, but it got side-effects
Efforts to maintain a relationship with unexpected challenges.
He filin' bankrupt, turned up on the internet
Financial troubles, publicized on the internet.
He leseaed the Wraith, he deficient on his taxes
Leasing a luxury car while facing tax issues.
Thought he was trappin', where the cash at, you stashed it
Questioning someone's involvement in illegal activities.
I'm El Gato, front door, but it got side-effects
Referring to himself as "El Gato" with unexpected consequences at the front door.
My dough defy the laws of science, I'm a scientist
Boasting about financial success with a reference to scientific defiance.
I put a ki in my rerock machine and press it
Processing and distributing drugs, facing consequences.
It came from Tijuana but I had to stretch it
Drug origin from Tijuana, emphasizing the need for stretching or dilution.
Cartel affiliations, man, they causin' side-effects
Affiliation with a drug cartel leading to unintended effects.
I'm talkin' pull up the plug in a private jet
Discussing high-stakes financial transactions with potential consequences.
I'm talkin' numbers so low, it got me cheesin'
Numbers so low that they bring joy.
Blowin' numbers like trees, Big Meechin'
Consuming drugs in large quantities, reminiscent of Big Meech.
I'm droppin' good game on your big peaches
Sharing wisdom or advice with someone important.
I just scope-tracked the trailer, free reefer
Monitoring a trailer's location and obtaining free marijuana.
Side-effects strike first, Grim Reaper
Undesirable consequences, possibly related to drug trade or lifestyle choices.
Desert Eagle, .45, street-sweeper
Referencing powerful firearms and dangerous situations.
Like Gucci really see dead people
Claiming an ability to see deceased individuals.
I mean really man, I see dead people
Reiteration of the ability to see the deceased.
Body found, don't make it a sequel
Warning against potential harm leading to a sequel (continuation of a negative event).
Side-effect, me an' you are not equal
Declaring a difference in status or importance.
Growin' up, I did shit so evil
Admitting to engaging in morally questionable actions during upbringing.
Yesterday, half a mil' for two features
Financial success, earning half a million for two music features.
Niggas warin' in the streets, we ain't equal
Acknowledging inequality and conflict in the streets.
If I get caught, I see no evil
Denying awareness or responsibility if caught in illicit activities.
A side-effect, I bought a brick and two Beepers
Purchasing drugs and communication devices, facing consequences.
How you snitchin' on a nigga that feed ya
Critiquing disloyalty of someone dependent on the narrator.
A side-effect, get rich, they turn evil
Wealth acquisition leading to negative personality changes.
Is that a car, is that a plane? No, that's a creature
Observing an unusual or extraordinary entity.
Wop
Reference to the artist's nickname "Wop."
