Necessary Lyrics - Singles - Boogie Down Productions

When some get together and think of rap, they tend to think of violence 

But when they are challenged on some rock group, the result is always silence 

Even before the rock and roll era, violence played a big part in music 

It's all according to your meaning of violence and how or in which way you use it 

No, it's not violent to show in movies the destruction of the human body 

But yes, of course it's violent to protect yourself at a party 

And, oh no, it's not violent when under the christmas tree is a look-alike gun 

But, yes, of course it's violent to have an album like KRS-One 

By all means necessary, it's time to end the hypocrisy 

What I call violence, I can't do, but your kind of violence is stopping me 

By all means necessary, the rap audience must grow up 

The same type of fightin' we do, they do except we've got nothing to blow up 

It doesn't matter if you win or lose, it's only how good you play the game 

This is the oldest sneak attack, because it takes away our senses to gain 

If all I do is play the game then I am just mediocre 

We strive to be the best we can be, not to just get over 

Some people say that life on a whole is serious and nothing is funny 

That's only if you base your life around competition and money 

Yeah, I'm making some money, he's making some money, but none of these things are necessities 

What I find to be a necessity is controlling a positive destiny 

With this, money, fame, glory and credit will come in time 

The people down with me know this every minute they hear me sayin rhymes 

I got some friends, I got some allies like Stet, and Big Daddy Kane 

They know that by all means necessary that peace is the name of this game 

Whether peace by war, or peace by peace, the reality of peace is scary 

But we must get there, one way or another, by all means necessary.
