Young Lito - I Gotta Go [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
“Yo”
“Yo, fuck is you doing? You sleeping, nigga?”
“Nah, I just got up”
“Come on, we’ve got to go get this money”
“Aight, bet”
“Aight, I’m ‘a hit you when I’m outside”
“Aight”


[Bridge]
Just trying to get my cash right, so I’m on the grind
Out here chasing this dough
Caught up in the fast life, my pockets are right
But I’m just trying to get more
With my freedom on the line, I know that I could do time
My conscience’s telling me ‘no’
But that money’s on my mind, all I see is dollar signs
And right now I’ve got to go


[Verse 1]
You can wait for opportunity or take it
Obey the law or you can break it
As long as you make it
I wasn’t cool with small dough and living basic
So I’m ‘a whip up this work and go and chase it
I wake up in the morning with one thing on my mind
Then get dressed, hit my [worker?], give a kiss to my mom
Leave my main phone and a couple thousand behind
In case I get in a jam and I need me a bond
‘Cause I ain’t trying to sit up
And be locked in a cage doing sit-ups
Man, that’ll fuck my whole shit up
Don’t care about no six pack, I’m trying to make six racks
This week I just took an L, I’m trying to get back
Remember leaving town for a few to get big stacks
If the work’s clicking again, I might quit rap
Trying to put my freedom over failure
Watch a rear view, they might tell you
Screw up, they’ll nail you


[Bridge]


[Hook]
Go
I’ve gotta go
Go
I’m busy chasing this dough


[Verse 2]
Adidas track pants when I’m chasing the paper
Out delivering pies like I work for a baker
Knowing if I get knocked, a nigga making the paper
I just wanted to live, I’m trying to ball like a Laker
You can’t find a nigga liver, man I’m a rider
Yea, I’m in these streets, in it deep like a diver
Hustle got a wider, was a nine-to-fiver
But that ain’t my destiny’s child, fuck a survivor
Had a job ‘til I got laid off
But I was making more money on my days off
Posted up on the block, hitting [jays off?]
I even did white collar like Madoff
Shit, I’ve done made a couple Gs off of [popping ben?]
Now I’m trying to make some ends off this fucking pen
Writing raps, no more getting MACs
Get it how you live, man I’m just speaking facts


[Bridge]
