[Pre-Chorus 1]
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
I don't got a lot but I'm
Fighting for my spot
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
Tryna top the charts
I ain't barely even start

[Chorus]
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
I don't got no mentions but I
Still gotta get 'em listening
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
Killing the competition
I be the greatest when I'm finished

[Verse 1]
Uncertainty all around me, they wanna talk behind my back
Grinding tryna find a path
I gotta make these scraps last
I'm concurrent from the culture, spending racks to get em back
Looking to the future, screw the past
Playing hard pray I don't crash
I'm reaching for the heat
Gotta get it before I leave my teens
I won't switch on my team
All my people need to eat
People wanting me to chill
But I gotta work 'til the end
Yeah, we gonna win
Make it happen 'til I make it big
Culture needs a change
We caught up caught in the chains
Change we necessitate
We gotta stray from the same
All we care 'bout is pay
No lyrics just 808s
Issues, there ain't no gray
We're slaves to the hate
I'm a fiend for my dreams
Getting greens, without the greed
Chasing thrills, they'll pay the bills
I'll Stay off of the weed
Taking the passion day-to-day
I'm way too wise to rush the action
Gotta work, it ain't automatic
Save up racks I call that rations

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
I don't got a lot but I’m
Fighting for my spot
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
Tryna top the charts
I ain't barely even start

[Chorus]
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
I don't got no mentions but I
Still gotta get em listening
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
Killing the competition
I be the greatest when I'm finished

[Verse 2]
Only rapping what I wrote
Y'all gotta stay woke
These bars gonna keep me afloat
Y'all got a job, you bet not quit it tho
I'ma get it tho
Yeah, I'm ill with it tho
Cooking up in the kitchen tho
Killing foes, that's just how it finna go
Sell outs sell their souls for clout
What y'all write about
I can't mess with the sound
Why y'all act so proud
I made it my mission
I gotta not start with the gimmicks
Most of this new stuff ridiculous
I guess I gotta go out and fix it
When I drop this album everybody gotta cop it
Screw a house in the tropics
I got my squad, I'm being honest
They all wanna skip around and hop on top the topic
I'm gon' talk about it, even though everybody cropping
I'm grateful for God's glory
It's why I'm always scoring
God gave me the skills
Now I gotta work to get touring
I got blessings coming on the daily
Don't let yourself mistake it
I ain't do it on my own
But I won't be caught waiting
I gotta go out and get it
I ain't got the time to stop
If they ain't with me
Then they want me to flop
I'ma get up, grind
Tryna get this, mine
Not content, I'm never fine
I'm not even in my prime

[Pre-Chorus 2]
My faith's the forefront of my career
I put it in drive, now I'm in gear
I used to be ruled by fear
Now I'm wise above my years
I've been through too much through my years
Bet I'll never shed a tear
They wanna be part of the movement
They listen but they don't hear

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
I don't got a lot but I'm
Fighting for my spot
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
Tryna top the charts
I ain't barely even start

[Chorus]
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
I don't got no mentions but I
Still gotta get 'em listening
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
Killing the competition
I be the greatest when I'm finished

[Verse 3]
You want the easy road
Well go get it tho
I ain't gon' hand it to ya
I gotta provide for my bros
Ain't no difference in the game
They all wanna sound the same
They'll steal the style of savage
Or they'll copy drake
To make it that's all it takes
Maybe art on your face
You can make a milli but
You'll never be great
But that's not me
Bet I'll never copy
To this music, I'm an addict
I already know how its finna happen

[Chorus]
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
I don't got no mentions but I
Still gotta get 'em listening
I gotta go out and get it
I gotta go out and get it
Killing the competition
I be the greatest when I'm finished
