Gotta Be

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I followed that lilt of your siren song Deep inside, I knew I had to join along The infectious groove that rang so true That sense of d�j� vu Deep inside, all mystified I knew what I had to do Don't put your expectations down on me 'Cause I'm just fixin' on shapin' my own destiny, yeah! [Chorus] Gotta be what I gotta be Ain't no time for nothin' else (Woo!) Gotta be what I gotta be, yeah Makes no sense to fool myself My brother, my friend (Yeah!) Made it clear just who I am Now I see that I gotta be what I gotta be [Verse 2] Come on, Floyd! Well, sometimes things can g5t a little rough Oh, no doubt Tell mama and them you'r5 comin' around Oh, at my house (My house!) Oh fade, oh dough, and as we go To face the winds of fate (Woo!) Please pardon my exuberation And I pontificate! (Yeah!) There's no more that no one can discover Yeah, you're right, for sure That there could be no better brother! [Chorus] Gotta be what you gotta be Ain't no time for nothin' else (Woo!) Gotta be what you gotta be Makes no sense to fool yourself My brother, my star You made it clear just who you are And now I see that you gotta be what you gotta be [Bridge] I know you got my back And you know I got yours Those that do not follow They're called non sequiturs! Let the good times rock Ooh, baby, roll on by! We're better together Like birds of a feather Like ice cream and apple pie! [Chorus] Gotta be what we gotta be Ain't no time for nothin' else No no, no there ain't Gotta be what we gotta be, yeah Makes no sense to fool ourself And by makin' it this far We made it clear just who we are Now they see that we gotta be what we gotta be Now they see that we gotta be what we gotta be [Outro] Who you gonna be? I gotta be me! That's right! Ah, ha, ha, ha! Ha, ha, ha, ha
