Moonshine
Side Effectz Lyrics

my music is forever but still they keepin my words incarcerated
Despite the fact that my music will be timeless, my true rhymes are being confined and suppressed.

got to stop my street shIt cuz the labels are saying it
Need to put a halt to rapping about street life because it is not appealing to music labels.

thats fucked up but this homie not faking it
Although it is disappointing, I will not pretend to be something that I am not.

spit bars for the people livin broke like me
I rap lyrics for people who are living in poverty like myself.

you see, if i shine you shine but thats just me
I believe that if I am successful, then you will also shine because we are interconnected.

break bread so my brothers can eat just like me
I share my wealth so that my fellow brothers can also eat comfortably like I do.

guess i got the left mentality tattoed in me
I have a liberal point of view embedded in me which I always carry with myself.

keepin it G feeling free just being me
Staying genuine and true to my gangsta roots while feeling liberated by being my true self.

i don't know if you can dance to this
I am not sure if this makes you groove or not.

but you can light up a spliff or a cancerstick
Instead, you can relax and smoke up weed or a cigarette.

crack a bottle of christpiss analyze the niceness
Open a bottle of high-quality whiskey, and ponder over the overall goodness of everything.

roadlakes finest all up in the cipher
The best rappers from my city are present in the freestyle session.

moves stay precise the silent type like Keyser
My actions are always on point, and I remain quiet like Keyser in The Usual Suspects.

Soze you still sleeping?? it's OK
Hey, Keyser Soze, are you still asleep? No worries, take your time.

i catch you in a dream part your Z's like Moses
I will catch you in a dream and split it apart, be it like how Moses split the sea.

you waking up soaked in cold sweat like Oh shit
You will wake up sweaty, realizing that you were in a nightmare.

2 years ago i was all about fame honeys and money
Two years earlier, all I cared about was becoming rich and popular.

lost in a dream sippin like a beast keep em coming
I was lost in chasing my dreams while drinking aggressively and continuously having more drinks.

sittin like a king in a chair fucking the world
I felt above the world, acting like a king while actually ruining my life in the process.

now i got a baby girl so i worry about tomorrow
Currently having a daughter, I am concerned for my family's future.

get your mind to exercise give it some extra time
Mentally work out and give yourself additional time to improve.

keep your feet on the ground kill the noize with your mind
Stay humble and focus your thoughts to remove unnecessary distractions.

dont be next in line cuz the hype doesn't exist
Do not conform and align with the norm just because hype does not actually exist.

homie thats the twist but now you stuck in the mist
That is the catch, and you now find yourself struggling and confused.

if i shine you shine we can all prosper
If I am successful, we both benefit and prosper together.

and leave the imposters running for oscars
Let the ones who pretend to be something else, and do not possess genuineness, compete for Oscar Awards.

while we eat pasta guzzle good vodka
Let us enjoy delicious pasta and drink the best quality vodka.

never gave a fuck about no champagne and lobster
I never cared for fancy things like champagne and lobster.

the underground apostles true to the rituals
We are authentic and loyal underground hip-hop rappers, who maintain our traditions.

extra curricular we ill like caligula
Apart from music, we are dangerously cool and dominant, like the Roman Emperor Caligula.

lo-tech original, fuck a autotune
I stay true to my roots while not using auto-tune.

this platoon shines through like the rays of the moon
We are a team that shines like the moon's radiance.

i'm not the metaphor-type doing songs for the chicks
I do not want to seem like I am using metaphors to write songs to please women.

spit shit about the real so get off my...
I speak about reality, so do not bother me with irrelevant things.

only god can judge me he made me to a soldier
God is the only one who can pass judgement on me since he created me to be a warrior.

stay real to your people and he'll catch you when it's over
Be genuine with your close ones, and God will have your back in the end.

even if your people turn evil give em your hand
In uncertain times, do not hesitate to help your friends, even if they have gone astray.

you're not a pussy you're just a better man
Helping others out of a difficult situation shows that you are a strong man, not weak.

If I shine you shine we're one of a kind
When I prosper, we both prosper since we have a special bond.

sit back unwind spit one for your mind
Relax, chill out and listen to something meaningful.

got the drunken designs that run down ya spine
Our music flows like alcohol, smoothly, and intoxicatingly affecting your emotions.

leaving footprints in the sands of time
Our music will make an impact and leave a lasting impression for ages to come.
