Clifton Lighty - Do What I Gotta Do lyrics

Gotta do what I gotta do Do what I gotta do Cause cash rules everything around me If you take a look around Take a look at was goin' down If you can see what I see, baby And why act the way I do Cause you can't understand And you don't really know a man Until you've been where I've been Loose the things I've lost But can you change the way that you look at me All that you can say to me The things I just can say no more I'm not the same guy that I used to be We don't even talk no more Don't I get up everyday Don't I bring home all my pay Don't I do whatever it takes If I could just get my baby out tha ghetto Gotta do what I gotta do Move when it's time to move See who I gotta see Cause cash rules everything around me Do what I gotta do Be who I gotta be But it's not enough for you Cause we can live without enough money She is afraid to get involved She ain't willin to fall in love It's such a risk to take and a big mistake By the way I make my livin' But I let you know from the go That's the way it is And that's the way it goes It's the only life I know But you can't do nuthing to change that baby All that you can say to me The things I just can say no more I'm not the same guy that I used to be We don't even talk no more Don't I get up everyday Don't I bring home all my pay Don't I do whatever it takes If I could just get my baby out tha ghetto Gotta do what I gotta do Move when it's time to move See who I gotta see Cause cash rules everything around me Do what I gotta do Be who I gotta be But it's not enough for you Cause we can live without enough money Gotta do what I gotta do Move when it's time to move See who I gotta see Cause cash rules everything around me Do what I gotta do Be who I gotta be But it's not enough for you Cause we can live without enough money Just try and understand me Look at it from my point of view Nuthin in this world is free So I do what I gotta do Didn't I give you, the big cars n tha big rimes I kept you, less then The finer things, baby what you think It was coming from stop actin dumb I knew you knew, but you played it off I play it too, like I had it all I was your man gave you everything So don't act like you don't understand Gotta do what I gotta do Move when it's time to move See who I gotta see Cause cash rules everything around me Do what I gotta do Be who I gotta be But it's not enough for you Cause we can live without enough money
