[Verse 1: Shock G]
You arrogant trapped little suckers always bragging
But we ain't trying to hear that dragging
Still never catch the Undeground lagging
Now close your mouth punk, your bottom lips starting to sag, yeah
But when you dance away, she can't imagine
I see you little wheezy thirty-one tail wagging
The beats funky and the music's strong
This song's to let you know you got us wrong
Quit crashing, breaking all the rules when you suffer, that's crashing
'Cause we love to represent black music with a passion
It ain't our fault that your brand new 2 is out of fashion
I got nothing against the music education
But see the situation, is when you say we're not musicians
Well I'm here let you know, it ain't necessarily so
And we continue to flow, yo Tu' let's blow

[Chorus: Shock G & 2Pac]
It ain't necessarily so (It ain't necessarily so)
It ain't necessarily so (It ain't necessarily so)

[Verse 2: 2Pac]
So I ain't Branford, and I don't play the sax
We only gettin' in booth, kicking 'em black tracks
But they don't wanna give my props up
Got ya nerve severing an RnB slop up
I can't figure, I guess it makes you feel bigger
Looking down on us Underground n***as
Oh no, fuckin' around and slip low
Swinging what for? Not necessarily so
Nice to meet ya, I see [?]
Got clout, sold out, now your ass is cute
So you point your finger at up and coming, you feel dumb and
Because I'm young and still stunnin'
Do what you like, no one can say what the fuck I write
You don't like? Well fight and I'll be nothing nice
You trick ho, my shit makes you slip low
A young bro saying it ain't necessarily so
[Verse 2: Shock G]
Down for the music we use
Not 'cause we getting money, but because we choose—
