Era Necesario (feat. Faruz Feet)

We came from the projects to the neighborhood
We had to do it because it was necessary
My life portrayed on a stage
Always full, that's how you'll see me daily

We all come from the hood
But when it comes down to it, who's gonna throw down?
Some show you respect
And they're the same ones who will fight to see you fall one day

Clear future after a dark past
Another street odyssey in this one I venture into today
I always knew someone would let me down, it was a sure thing
If they want, we take it to the streets and remove the safety locks

With the forty-five in front of the mirror, I practiced
Yesterday all my lives
Today I take care of my rat friends always here
I unsheathe the mic and it seems like I'm a samurai

That kid brings it
They call him Faruz Feet
They say he's in good shape
What everyone comments when I arrive at the party is

What, you what?
I just heard from afar, I educated myself
These are the 70s, Jim Morrison Toser who was
This is gonna be a hit for the tube

We come from the bottom and always kept it real
This is dedicated to those who had it with sweat
Look how they kneel when they see me rise

We came from the projects to the neighborhood
We had to do it because it was necessary
My life portrayed on a stage
Always full, that's how you'll see me daily

We all come from the hood
But when it comes down to it, who's gonna throw down?
Some show you respect
And they're the same ones who will fight to see you fall one day

I keep walking outside
I'm not afraid, man
People already know I'm not into messing around
I'm still the same dog who knows where he's going

Always connecting, I never do things half-heartedly
People judge me wrong because they don't know what's happened
I'm from the hood and I haven't put my principles aside
Son, be careful, it's better to stay quiet

Everything here has cost us, no one gave it away
I've earned it, I carry weight
I know they all kiss my ass
They stumble and start, I don't know what the hell they're thinking

With just a little they saw, they left and don't come back
Envy is what covers them
That's why they don't progress
I'm classy, blowing up the base

The pass comes in stones
Son, don't overstep
I'm the one who's here to show you how it's done
Sentenced to success, Faruz don't give them a chance

We came from the projects to the neighborhood
We had to do it because it was necessary
My life portrayed on a stage
Always full, that's how you'll see me daily

We all come from the hood
But when it comes down to it, who's gonna throw down?
Some show you respect
And they're the same ones who will fight to see you fall one day
