Gotta Know Lyrics by Caleborate

1993

2016

[Verse 1]
You gotta know
I'm just tryna make from the place where the skinny niggas die everyday
Smoke pine everyday, get high then try to erase
We been trippin' for a minute but we can't afford a ticket to evade
Niggas get fired everyday
Ride around town lookin' like he fly everyday
That's your girl, he could take her from a mile away
He can get popped walkin' from the store
What I want today lookin' for some bad hoes with they nails did low-key nerdy and shit like that
I wonder if the mailman know that they all strapped
I wonder if the bank know we ain't gon' pay back
I wonder if my teacher know I ain't gon' make class
I wonder if you gonna get it with your no taste ass
Give you stories of my life so you donate cash
I'm here, layin' all these tracks let my flow [?] crash

[Hook X4]
You gotta know
I'm just tryna make from the place where the skinny niggas die everyday

[Verse 2]
You gotta know
I've been at this shit since 2011
My Granny passed and they sent her to heaven
I ain't even get to see her I was too busy rappin'
And they ain't got insurance for these dreams
You gotta know I was on a full mission gotta get it nigga
In the streets trippin' gotta whip 'em nigga
On that cool shit while the game went slippin' nigga
I was on that chill wave, you was swag drippin' nigga
You gotta know
I'mma get a mouth full of gold
I'mma get all of the hoes
You gotta know everybody rap like they from the south but I'm from the Bay I wanna let you know
You gotta know
Every one these niggas wanna beat a nigga but I'm Django with the flow
You gotta know I'mma take off when the cops say freeze cause that's all that a nigga was taught

[Hook X4]
You gotta know
I'm just tryna make from the place where the skinny niggas die everyday

[Verse 3]
You gotta know
This shit was all in the plans
This shit is outta my hands
Wake up everyday and thank God I'm prayin'
Wake up everyday to say mom I'm sayin' I'm 'bout to blow
You ain't gon' see me no more
I'mma be off doin' shows
I'mma be off up in Hollywood doing the most
Runnin' through Hollywood hoes
You gotta know
I'm takin' chances nigga
Tryin' to advance my nigga
Tryin' to get my family from the poverty line so they ain't gotta fall back on a nigga
What do you know?
You ain't never wore my shoes take a step, walk a block in my soles
Shoot for the stars while I block these hoes
Shoot for the stars while I block these hoes

[Hook X4]
You gotta know
I'm just tryna make from the place where the skinny niggas die everyday, my nigga

[Outro]
Saying you won't be leaving from here
You won't be leaving from here
