Lyrics
Just Gotta Know
Chorus
It ain't ever the right time.
Man you just gotta go.
Never the right line...
It just gotta flow.
I asked when am I gon' get the plan God chose.
Can't nobody tell you that man.
You just gotta know.
Bridge
Oh! I said you just gotta know.
Repeat 4x
Verse 1
Now everybody told me know but I'm still thinking yes.
Unless my next breath gets stuck up in my chest I'm destined.
Can't rest or get mixed up in stress.
Got to respect hard work, not just the checks.
Regardless of debt, I'm worth more than dollars and cents.
My account would make accountants think I'm not at my best...
But I ain't your typical 9 to 5 guy.
Try to train me to just get a job and slide by but I free enterprise...
Now the limit's the sky.
I don't listen to your limited minds.
Work overtime.
If I get in a bind. It's fine.
Back on the grind...
Time's ticking and I'm still in my prime.
It's about that time.
Chorus
Bridge
Verse II
I found my niche.
I never knew it'd sound like this.
Whenever you get revenue you get surrounded quick...
By clowns that want to be down and some sound legit.
The amount that's really with you is like 5%.
They say I can't and I couldn't.
Took a chance that I wouldn't when they stand there brushing me off.
But as soon as you advance then they're looking like they're fam.
Want a hookup from you then like "remember me dog?"
I've been in the longest quick minute of my life now.
Trying to live it right while everything around me is wrong.
When I don't even recognize family...
Nobody understands me except when I put it in a song.
Then it's on.
Chorus
Bridge
Verse III
You either got it in you...
Win or lose not the issue...
Follow the doubt within you or battle the odds against you.
Go while there's still time.
Driving me out of my mind.
Scheming and they're plotting.
The game's rotting while it's alive.
I gave it mouth to mic.
There ain't no way I'm gon' delay on this paper.
I'm just making sure that I got it right.
It's been 300 months and counting.
Eat nothing but some Ramen for a week but keep on climbing up that mountain.
Went from down and out to how I'm living now 'cause I'm about it.
If it's business, I'm with it.
If it's drama, I ain't around it.
Same folks that clowned it asking when we're hanging out...
Switching the rules like we're still cool.
Now get up. Make a move.
