Gotta Know Lyrics - Rehab - Lecrae

You just gotta know 

You ever feel like life just coming at ya a million miles an hour? 

You just gotta know, you just gotta know 

Somebody's holding it all together 

Life is like an elevator, a lot of ups and downs 

People pushing your buttons and getting jerked around 

I used to lurk around town trying to work around 

Working so that I could hit the ground with the perfect sound 

Even perfect sound sounds like work 

When you spend your time flirting with the crown in the perp 

I was bound for berzerk with a layover in crazy 

A lazy Jay-Z hoping rock-a-fellas paid me 

Or rocking ladies were caught me a Mercedes 

But that whole dream was in '80's, baby 

Missed that shot like the cop that's crooked 

TV goes off, third eye still looking

Mom's still cooking, I can always go home 

Even though I'm five years past grown 

Here I go again, I'm still chasing the wind, I can't win 

When it gets hot, it boils down to sin 

If heaven ain't a gift, then I ain't getting in, man 

I can't even find the words for the way I feel 

So I paint a picture, I paint a picture 

I've been going down this road, seen some crazy things 

So I paint a picture, you gots to see it 

You just gotta know, you just gotta know 

You just gotta know, you just gotta know 

Yeah, I sit and hear the guitars play 

Wonder if they could, what would stars say? 

Or Venus and Mars say, or say that we want it our way 

Stars so desperate to shine that they go on living the hard way 

Photos 

The intellect to travel to Mars but so blind 

We worship Venus but she don't even know who we are 

And she never cared why? 'Cause she wasn't there 

When I was trying to drown my sorrows in a pool of despair 

I ain't perfect, sometimes I feel worthless 

Worthless than that is the image that I'da purchased 

Man, from the shades to the shirt, to the shoes 

Just another fool trying to cover he's confused, that ain't cool 

Sometimes I hate the man in the mirror 

'Cause I know he's a liar and a cheater and a killer 

People say they love him but they love what he can give 'em 

But deep inside he knows that there's a reason for him living 

I can't even find the words for the way I feel 

So I paint a picture, I paint a picture 

I've been going down this road, seen some crazy things 

So I paint a picture, you gots to see it 

You just gotta know, you just gotta know 

You just gotta know, you just gotta know 

Uh, you know I need you like Aqua 

Day without ya got me so nauseous 

If I ain't cautious, I'm gonna self-inflict my sickness 

You know it's true, you as my witness 

At how you witness, my inconsistent 

Yes, the ovation when I need your assistance 

And I just gotta know that even though I'm a misfit 

I'm still worth more than calamity's French kiss 

Yes, I'm loved and I'm pursued 

And though I can't feel it, still I know that it's true 

Somebody woke me up and yeah, I know it was you 

And yet I keep trying to steer clear of your view 

'Cause if you get me, I know that you got me 

But I'm so insecure I can't believe that you want me 

But then I heard you went on your way to adopt me 

Well, you can have my all if you swear you won't drop me 

'Cause I gotta know, yeah 

You just gotta know, gotta know, gotta know 

You just gotta know, gotta know, gotta know that it's real 

You just gotta know, gotta know, gotta know that it's real 

You just gotta know, gotta know that it's real 

You just gotta know, gotta know, gotta know 

You just gotta know, gotta know, gotta know that it's real 

You just gotta know, gotta know, gotta know that it's real 

You just gotta know, gotta know that it's real
