Lyrical Analysis of...
Un·nec·es·sar·y - Equal
- I felt compelled to write after M. Brown,
- I had my name spelled out,
- My label planned out,
- Thought I had it all, but I still had doubt,
- "Ain't no way I'ma make it,"
- "Ain't no way people gon' take it,"
- I had no idea what to do, so I faked it,
- Released my first mixtape at school, thought I made it,
- Later on, forgot about rap, too busy getting faded,
- After that, in 7th grade, it was my turn, for the drug trade,
- I didn't think much of it, came home, slower than a slug,
- Trapped in bed, didn't know why I felt so snug,
- Started thinking, and decided I ain't gon' be labled a thug,
- When my homies heard my choice, man, they was struck,
- They dropped the news, the whole school passed me with a shrug,
- Just that new kid who isn't into dope,
- I'm not that religious, but at the time, felt like the Pope,
- I got pressured into it, and told myself, "nope,"
- I made it through school, maybe there is hope,
- 3 years later, clean as can be,
- You don't need that green to be as keen as you think,
- Turn the tables, look at the scene,
- I hope I made clear the theme,
- You don't need coke to gleam.
