[Intro]
I, I, I gots to get it
I gots to get it while the get-go gettin is good
You will respect me, it's simple as that
We gonna rock, till nothin else matters
I, I, I gots to get it
I gots to get it while the get-go gettin is good
I fly high with the winds of change
Through the times they cherish, but I'm still the same

[Verse 1]
Uh, still one and the same
Still made it when the crime saw my government name
Though the terrain's been mudded with troublesome pain
On tracks, I'ma run it with train that came back like nothin has changed
Stayin in my lane, gears and clockworks the thoughts to [...]
Make somethin outta nada, squeeze water outta stone
I'm a hometown hero, a poet like Nasir Jones
In the zone, old head on young shoulders
A free agent to no fences to jump over
Fuck being stuck in a blunt coma
Still a hard-working entrepreneur like Shawn Hova
I rose up from the ashes like a phoenix bird
Zigzags to sit back to see the earth
Back to reach the world with these beats and words
Never leavin my dreams to phert, and that's word

[Chorus]
I, I, I gots to get it
I gots to get it while the get-go gettin is good
You will respect me, it's simple as that
We gonna rock, get it right
I, I, I gots to get it
I gots to get it while the get-go gettin is good
I fly high with the winds of change
Through the times they cherish, but I'm still the same

[Verse 2]
Ayo, still the same kid who fell in love with the game
But now a different team though, none of us playin
As far as the queen go, I'm no son of a saint
I'm one cool customer at the money exchange
So whatchu sayin?
I'm playin for keeps, stayin awake when I sleep every day of the week
Y'all was wastin classics, so I pray to the east
That taught me how to keep an ace up my sleeve, at the table of thieves
Before I got a two for high standin
It's a done deal if the duo's dynamic
Goddammit, let you stew the sound language
Fuck you, pay me, so do what I'm plannin
Can't stand it but it's food for your thought
The number one, so provider
I do what went hard
Light a Cuban cigar at the coast of Havanna
After all, it's a lucrative job, let off the sampler

[Chorus]
I, I, I gots to get it
I gots to get it while the get-go gettin is good
You will respect me, it's simple as that
We gonna rock, till nothin else matters
I, I, I gots to get it
I gots to get it while the get-go gettin is good
I fly high with the winds of change
Through the times they cherish, but I'm still the same

[Verse 2: Sabina Ddumba]
Still, of course I'm real
It's the S, double D, got them scorchin skills
Young, black, if they never lost the thrill
Ready or not, Lauren Hill
Pause and chill
Nah, I bust the grammar
Goin worldwide, yo, what's up Uganda
Straight out the sampler, I'm kealin, this looks
I gots to get it payed off the books

[Chorus]
I, I, I gots to get it
I gots to get it while the get-go gettin is good
You will respect me, it's simple as that
We gonna rock, till nothin else matters
I, I, I gots to get it
I gots to get it while the get-go gettin is good
I fly high with the winds of change
Through the times they cherish, but I'm still the same
