Gotta Be
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Up till the sunlight, reach the apartment
Cease the alarm when it beeps in the morning
Where you wanna go, I got keys in my pocket
Tell me what you need, got a G in my wallet
Nobody but we in the lobby
Might touch base but we might touch bodies
You gotta be chill, you gotta be real, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be you, you gotta be true, you gotta last longer
You gotta be tight, you gotta act right, you gotta get higher
All I know all, all I know is love will save the day
Ice in my ear and Ice in my coffee
I see your tears but I still ain’t sorry
Shoot the address if the shit seems poppin
Might swing through like batman and robin
Talk shit and the shit roll off me
Don’t get mad at the life of the party
You gotta be chill, you gotta be real, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be you, you gotta be true, you gotta last longer
You gotta be tight, you gotta act right, you gotta get higher
All I know all, all I know is love will save the day
Do you wanna have fun, do you wanna do the right thing baby
Come play with this loaded gun, got nothing but time to kill and
You ain’t the only one, do you wanna feel the lightning baby
Come wait for the morning Sun, yeah yeah
You gotta be chill, you gotta be real, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be you, you gotta be true, you gotta last longer
You gotta be tight, you gotta act right, you gotta get higher
All I know all, all I know is love will save the day
