[Intro: Mickey Shiloh]
Why you gotta go right now, why you gotta go right now?
Why you gotta—why you gotta go right now?

[Chorus: Mickey Shiloh]
I've been drinkin', I've been smokin', tryna to forget you
I've been thinkin' every moment since the day I met you
I can't let it go right now, why you gotta go right now? Yeah
Can't let it go right now, why you gotta go right now?
Why, why, why? Why, why, why?
Why you gotta go right now, right now?
Why you gotta go right now, why you gotta—why you gotta go right now?
Why, why, why? Why, why, why?
Why you gotta go right now, right now?
Why you gotta go, go?
Why you gotta go right now?

[Verse 1: Abstract]
This for my girl when she back at home
Know the time's coming when I'll be out on the road
Doing what I gotta do and stacking shows
This was everything I wanted and I know you know
This is all for us, this the way that I invest
Know a 401k what you getting from a desk
Trying to stack 401k off of doing this
By the time next year's up talking nothing less (Nothing less)
Remember renting fairgrounds for a show (Show)
Remember stressing, I was venting on these hoes (Hoes)
Remember home never feeling like home
Now it's props everywhere I go, it's outta my control
Hit my home newspaper up, they ain't even give a fuck
I'm the biggest out the town, watch a year switch 'em up
I won't answer any calls, I don't need the love at all
I did it on my own, you're the ones who took the loss
Homemade studio, self-made hype
I got ten damn albums 'cause my team's so tight
And my team's worldwide and my fans are too
Guerrilla with the promo stickin' like gorilla glue
Switch the flow up for the track, put the world on my back
I'ma go and see the world, then I'll bring it all back
When I'm straight with the cash we can do it all again
Call it second world tour, bringin' baby girl then
[Chorus: Mickey Shiloh]
I've been drinkin', I've been smokin', tryna to forget you
I've been thinkin' every moment since the day I met you
I can't let it go right now, why you gotta go right now? Yeah
Can't let it go right now, why you gotta go right now?
Why, why, why? Why, why, why?
Why you gotta go right now, right now?
Why you gotta go right now, why you gotta—why you gotta go right now?
Why, why, why? Why, why, why?
Why you gotta go right now, right now?
Why you gotta go, go?
Why you gotta go right now?

[Verse 2: Abstract]
Haven't been home with the fam nine months
Lyrics in my song's how my mother's keeping up
Phone call, Thanksgiving, know I'll see 'em in a month
Know I'm out here in the city I'm just tryna keep in touch
There for me from the jump
Know they got a lot of flack
'Cause their son put a whole lotta faith in his path
Balling on the doubters, success pay 'em back
Know my parents proud of me, Mom bragging real fast
(I'm everything I wanted)
Can't crash now, front page, kill stage, I'm the man now
New place, same pace, I'm a standout
Seeing old haters smiling with hands out
But you never rooted for me (You never rooted for me)
Know your roots, they ain't part of the tree (Know your roots, they ain't part of the tree)
You ain't part of the family please (Please)
So why the hell would I branch out?
[Outro]
(People gonna act like you owe them somethin')
I'ma leave you standing with your hands out
(When they didn't help you get to where you are, at all)
Why the hell would I branch out?
(If you weren't part of my tree)
I'ma leave you standing with your hands out
(If you weren't there rooting for me)
'Cause why in the hell would I branch out?

[Chorus: Mickey Shiloh]
I've been drinkin', I've been smokin', tryna to forget you
I've been thinkin' every moment since the day I met you
I can't let it go right now, why you gotta go right now? Yeah
Can't let it go right now, why you gotta go right now?
Why, why, why? Why, why, why?
Why you gotta go right now, right now?
Why you gotta go right now, why you gotta—why you gotta go right now?
Why, why, why? Why, why, why?
Why you gotta go right now, right now?
Why you gotta go, go?
Why you gotta go right now?
