NECESSARY ROUGHNESS
--------------------------------------
So you never had a battle now you wanna battle Tairrie?
Ya little virgin I’mma bust that cherry
Stepping to me, now your future looks shady
You got jacked, got jacked by a lady
That’s how I treat a man, ain't it a trip
Once I get em whipped, they better not slip
There’s a hollow point tip in the clip of my gat
I got my own and I’m strapped
With a bad rap and if you offend me
That’s when I start smacking and stop acting friendly
You’re staring me down but ain’t scaring me
And I don’t need a goddamn man to take care of me
Cause I’m an independent woman in other words
I ain’t backing down to you, you or those other nerds
And if you try to stuff this, I’mma show toughness
Necessary Roughness!

Smooth...Rough...Smooth...Rough...
Smooth...Rough...Smooth...Rough...

This is a feminine flex and of coarse the sex is female
Let me kick it in detail
Men keep saying that woman can’t rhyme
But I’ve been known to bust balls in my time
Give me a microphone and I’mma get down
To a rhythm coming straight from the Comptown label
I don’t mess around with rhyming
I kick ass and cut glass like a diamond
Steel toes or heels an panty hose
I’m breaking all the rules along with the egos
And I stand strong in field that I chose
So wherever I step, my rep goes
Now I suppose there are those that doubt me
Cause of something that was written about me
But when you gotta be tough you can’t bluff this
It’s Necessary Roughness!

Smooth...Rough...Smooth...Rough...
Smooth...Rough...Smooth...Rough...

Roughness, and ya made me do it
Now I’mma get up, get down and get to it
In control and coming right at ya
Firm when I sat ya down then I gat ya
Rough, cause that’s how I planned it
Smooth, cause I’m a lyrical bandit
You try to step but I’mma ruin your rep
Hip hip for the punk with pep
Just another motherfucker I had to drag along
You bother me son, move on you’re just a tag along
Tryna get a piece of the action
But I keep waxin', taxin' and askin'…
Why is rap not for a lady, huh
We’ve come a long way baby
And it’s time for a woman with toughness
This is Necessary Roughness!
