“Have To”

I’m on that Yoshi Island flow

Back then I didn’t even know

(I didn’t even know)

What was coming for me

In two thousand and three

The Marlins bringing home a second Series trophy

And symbolically

Symbiotically

What it meant for me
(And what it means for me)

It seems that every time my teams

Come home with the trophy

Okie dokie

I go hokie pokie

I start making moves

To get up out my groove

Cuz what I’ve been doing

Ain’t been proving


To move needle much

Mmm my day job is a crutch

But my ankle’s good now

Cannot wait for sundown

To ramp up to a sprint

If the sun’s too bright, I’ll squint

But the time is now

I’m jumping fully in (cause I been)


Waiting for the day

When I can do it cuz I want to

Not “I have to”

“I have to”

Yeah I’ve been waiting for the day 

That I can turn my back on all the things 

“I have to do”

I won’t ask of you

For my PTO

I gotta go, to Paris on parachute

That’s not for two

So it’s been true

But I been

Waiting for the day

When I can do it cuz I want to

Not “I have to”

“I have to”

Like Super Mario (World 2)

Back then I didn’t even know

(I didn’t even know)

It seems that when my MS Teams

Lights up in the night

You are looking for a fight

‘Cause the client’s dying

If so, I’ll let ‘em go

Call Yo Mama’s CEO

Chasing David’s sauce

Isn’t worth the cost

Of admission to the mission

I’m admitting my decision

To submit my two weeks

Kiss my two cheeks

Don’t expect no patience

That’s my recommendation

You don’t have to

What do I have to lose (when I been)

(1:56) Waiting for the day

When I can do it cuz I want to

Not “I have to”

“I have to”

Yeah I’ve been waiting for the day 

That I can turn my back on all the things 

“I have to do”

I won’t ask of you

For my PTO

I gotta go, to Paris on parachute

That’s not for two

So it’s been true

But I been

Waiting for the day

When I can do it cuz I want to

Not “I have to”

“I have to”
