Ivan B - Gotta Go Lyrics






Ain't no king in this music thing, I just let 'em know
Everybody is a puppet 'til they figure out the ropes
Yeah, if the love is fake, I can see it from the goat
I don't do the smalltalk, all I say is "Gotta go," yeah
See a lot of waves but I see 'em crash too
Every star's starin' at me, yeah, I'm starin' back too
You were winnin' in the past, now I'm gettin' past you
How you gonna tell me what to write when no one asked you? Yeah
Real ones only, that's the motto now
Everybody turned their back on me, what a turnaround
If it ain't about the work, you should know I'm never found
Rappers say they cold, you should see 'em chillin' on the couch, yeah
Been a minute since I let it rip
I set the bars, don't lose the grip
Today express my penmanships
These songs are weak, that'd never stick
They hit me up, like, "Help me, it will mean a lot"
Artists in my DMs call it writer's block
Live a little, write a lot
Smalltalk, all I say is "Gotta go"

Gotta go, yeah, I gotta go (I gotta go)
Gotta go, yeah, I gotta go (I gotta go)
Gotta go, yeah, I gotta go (I gotta go)
Got no time, yeah, I gotta go
I gotta go now

Chained up
Look like Houdini, no wonder you vanished
I'm gassed up
Talk about me but I guess it don't matter, yeah
Saw the drive, had to get the keys
And my head's in the sky, let me feel the breeze
Everybody's a minor at seventeen
I was the only one doin' major league
Lines over your head, lines all on my desk
Diamonds all on my neck, diamonds all on my neck
Diamonds all on my neck
Ay, is that what you wanna hear?
Is that what you wanna hear?
If I made an album, that's another watchin', give me album of the year, yeah
If I went diamond, they'd undermine it
Only chain that I need is a silver lining
Coolest wanna be the hottest thing, so I gotta climb it, woo!
Maybe I've been canned too long
What they gotta say about me but they sleepin' too long, yeah
Say you like the movement only when I'm in the room
Only foreign that I wanna hear is when it's goin' "vroom"
Yeah, new artists every summer; see and water them in June
But if you don't got the fans, tell me, what you gonna do?
Ain't no king in this music thing, I just let 'em know
Everybody is a puppet 'til they figure out the ropes
Yeah, if the love is fake, I can see it from the goat
I don't do the small talk, all I say is "Gotta go"

Gotta go, yeah, I gotta go (I gotta go)
Gotta go, yeah, I gotta go (I gotta go)
Gotta go, yeah, I gotta go (I gotta go)
Got no time, yeah, I gotta go
I gotta go now

Let me tell you what I see
Let me tell you what I'm feelin'
I know rappers in their feelin's hate the fact I'm in the buildin'
I know writers that pretend that they don't see me a lot
I know the industry hates every time I talk about God
Look who's runnin' it, go hate me, I'm in love with it
Elevated, they stare at it
Started as a veteran, backwards like a narrative
Maybe if I cared a bit, pride—sippin' less of it
Show off the pen, you wouldn't see the messages, no
I didn't order all of these fears, it just came with a soul
I got no time to tell you what you wanna hear anymore
You're changin' styles every week hopin' it's gonna blow
I know you're reachin' out, but really man, I gotta go

Yeah
I gotta go

    Ivan B Power of gods

  16. M.... B....

    I hate the comments compairing ivan to other rappers..

  17. D.... J....

    dude is dope but he biting flows g-eazy and nf if you gonna do that you should pay respect

    D.... J....

    Daddy Jeff Riffey bro everyone bites flows at some point it’s not easy trying to find your own flow bc most people/celebs have already made into something. But Ivan definitely has his own feel in music and has made it his own

    D.... J....

    @Camron Lee I'm not saying it's even a bad thing, just saying people should acknowledge it and show the respect. I mean obviously he listened to their shit, and liked it enough to emulate it. Why have a bar showing respect. Justvwas thought yo. I'm not hating, Ivan is dope.

    D.... J....

    Daddy Jeff Riffey I agree

  18. U.... 4....

    Yeaaaa let’s go Ivan!!!!! This song is fire

  19. R.... _....

    Imagine this guy doing a collab with NF that would be amazing

    R.... _....

  20. E.... E....

    Oh shit thats superposition!

  21. E.... E....

  30. I.... B....

    Artists in my Dm's call it writers block 😂 damn

  31. I.... R....

    My phone has been burnt to cinders. Heck, not even ashes remain.

  32. J.... z....

    Anyone else get that NF vibe in the middle of first verse?

    J.... z....

    @Justin Ellis That's what it was!!!!

    J.... z....

    Everyone saying they hear NF vibes clearly hasn't seen how Ivan has been evolving for years. Its honestly one of the biggest vexing statements I will ever live to hear.

    J.... z....

    @TheLegendJx they have both been evolving and it's just a comparison. Chill out

    J.... z....

    @italkgory99 It's just a comparison that has been spread across this album for weeks now.

    J.... z....

    @TheLegendJx well yeah what do you expect? If it sounds like him, then it sounds like him. People can't help it.

  33. j.... s....
