Lyrics If I Gotta Go - Joe Budden

If I gotta go
Can anybody tell me where?
And if I gotta go (if I gotta go)
Does anybody even care?

Lo-look, look
We gon′ party like its one-nine-nine-nine
Somethin' triggers makin′ my mind design crime
When at times my mind's fine, inclined to find dimes
Resigned from primetime

I need my stars to align when signs say they benign
Tell whoever cares if a stray happens to hit me
I need to take all the money I made with me
If I'm heaven bound I′ll put a hole in every turncoat
If hell bound I′m poppin' shit through the inferno

My jargon is I′m an arsonist
Since 11 when I found out what arson is
Look at me fully styled in that foreign whip
I get a high from it, love that Johnny Carson shit

I got a fascination for the aggravation
Shoot 'em or own truce, I love the fabrication
Waitin′ on an antidote but I lack the patience
On the second thought, I got my own vaccination

If I gotta go
Can anybody tell me where?
And if I gotta go (if I gotta go)
Does anybody even care?

All I ever dreamed about
It make me wanna run and shout

All I ever dreamed about
It make me wanna run and shout

I'm vindictive
Problem is I′m smarter than everybody
But too numb to show it, they too dumb to know it
Eventually my A's turned into D's
Eventually my O′s made its way to E

I′m tense, I'm not at ease
There′s niggaz with degrees
That ain't never made it hot nor turned up the degrees
There′s niggaz with credentials, accolades, paperwork
But couldn't figure out how to make they paper work

Me, I fight to stay alive, every day is work
Especially when they say there′s six million ways to murk
I wish the whole world was more like me
More likely to see through the eyes that I see

Or be tired like I be
Let's hide our ID's
There′s holes in my arms
Untied this IV
At times wish the world would comprehend like I do
Know it sound like I don′t wanna mend but I'd like to

If I gotta go
Can anybody tell me where?
And if I gotta go (if I gotta go)
Does anybody even care?
Four more nigga here

Lo-lo-lo-look, I wonder what′s behind the clouds
Flew all over the world, still I couldn't find out
Maybe I′m normal and everybody else isn't
Apron on over the stove in hell′s kitchen
Nails bitten, failed livin'

Another derailed mission for a nigga, jail smitten
Enough to get the pound
If I don't like the shit around me
Maybe I should change the shit that I′m around
How that sound?

All I ever dreamed about
It make me wanna run and shout

All I ever dreamed about
It make me wanna run and shout

If I gotta go
Can anybody tell me where?
And if I gotta go (if I gotta go)
Does anybody even care?

All I ever dreamed about
It makes me wanna run and shout
All I ever dreamed about
It makes me wanna run and shout
