Necessary Roughness Lyrics

Uh, uh, uh
Hey
Uh, break it down, big batty, here to rock the party (c'mon)
Break a sucker down to dust, ah-hah
Do what I must, ooh, what a rush(c'mon)
Lyrical murderer, microphone bone-crusher
Yeah, yeah y'all
Break a sucker down to dust, ah-hah

Now check the mic stalker, who'll wear you out like Walker
Rock a microphone like I was a native New Yorker
I strike hard like Ben Frank's lightnin' rod (uh-huh)
Leave you suckers scarred (uh-huh) leave you suckers charred (c'mon)
Now you're burnt to a crisp, so check the vocalist
I get sick with my shit, wicked like sadistics
It'll be a Black Moon when I Enta Da Stage
Grab the microphone, turn from Robin to Rage
Then I shoot from the jugular (uh-huh), I get rough and ruggeder (uh-huh)
You can't front on this big body Southerner
Your shit'll get smacked back, you're booty like asscrack
Who reigns supreme, baby? No need to ask that
I bust on the daily (uh), get down to the roots like Haley (uh-huh)
As I proceed to rock the mic, feel me, I
Gets total wreck and make crews pop, I
Rock from Osaka down to the Boondocks
Pop goes the rhyme on you weasels (uh-huh)
Rock before my peoples (uh-huh)
Strictly for those Prince Edward Eagles
As I blow up like spontaneous combustion, ha
I'll be the Queen of MC's that's Flushin', ha
And ain't no maybes or might be 'cause if the mic be
Within' reaches of my psyche, I just eat it up like Mikey (I like it)
When I'm weeded, so beat it, don't let me get heated
Or you just might get stretched out like Sealy Posturepedic (believe it)
So it is said, so it is written
Until the day that I'm dead, I'll keep hittin'
Always and forever spittin', from my soul for real
Down yellow brick roads I will, uh
Chasin' dreams, make it snap, them green beans
Ask Mr. Green Jeans who's the Captain' (uh), I'm slappin' (uh)
Fast-actin' like Tinactin, mo' deeper than the Kraken (hey)
So get crackin', you don't want to clash with this titan
Whether freestylin' or writin', the way I be breakin' off mics man
I'm twirlin' MC's like I'm Major Wreck
'Cause I'm a major threat, once again' Rage in effect, hey

Necessary rough when I bust
Enter your zones, microphones get crushed, I
I break a sucker down to dust, ah-hah
I do what I must, ooh, what a rush (c'mon)
Necessary rough when I bust (uh)
Enter your zones, microphones get crushed, I
I break a sucker down to dust, ah-hah
I do what I must (ooh, what a rush)

Now tell me who in the place want a taste? (Who?)
I'm rhymin' 'til I'm blue in the face so face the facts
Don't look back or you're gonna be salty
Uhh, ah-hah, you best take flight like Maltese Falcon (uh)
You're scalpin'(uh), your hearts palpitatin' (hey)
Flutterin' from the utterin' of the vocab when I spake it
When I spit it wack MC's get omitted
Now, did it not occur to you that I could serve a few good men or women? (C'mon)
'Cause I'ma equal opportunist (hey)
You're bound to lose unless your name is Parker Lewis
Now let's do this, let the games begin' (uh-huh)
Got suckers on the sideline mad as a wet hen, so you best
Stop with that ramblin', you're gamblin' with fate
I got suckers scramblin' like quarterbacks from Grambling State
So don't eff around Tootsie, you might get Roll-ed up
Sewed up, you best play like crutch and hold up (hold up)
Watch me flip shit like a gymnast, Mary Lou Retton
Best play like Omega Psi Phi and start steppin'
Jettin' on the first Delta out (huh)
'Cause I make mics melt in my mouth
Takin' 'em out is all I'm about, now check me out
For Hip-Hop, I dies hard with a vengeance
My vocab blows doors off its hinges with every sentence
And since this is the new age (uh, uh-huh)
A rhythmical concoctions by lyrical murderer Rage
Got a vertical hold on verbal abusin' ways
Cervical tubes get spayed, neutered, get slayed, tutored, done
Blood chick own nuff shit, quick, handcuff this
'Cause it's definitely necessary roughness, hey

Necessary rough when I bust
Enter your zones, microphones get crushed, I
I break a sucker down to dust, ah-hah
I do what I must, ooh, what a rush
Necessary rough when I bust
Enter your zones, microphones get crushed, I
I break a sucker down to dust, ah-hah
I do what I must, ooh, what a rush

Necessary rough when I bust
Microphones get crushed, I
Break a sucker down to dust
Do what I must, what a rush
Necessary rough when I bust
Enter your zones, microphones get crushed, I
I break a sucker down to dust, ah-hah
Do what I must, what a rush

Necessary rough (rough), ooh what a rush
Necessary rough (rough)
Ooh, what a (ooh, what a, ooh, what a, ooh what a)
Ah, necessary (ooh, what a, ooh, what a, ooh what a)
(Ooh, what a, ooh, what a, ooh what a)
