Lyrics[]
- Gotta go, go, go, get your rest up
- No days off, better catch up
- Brand new shoes look retro
- Green Hill's on, had to level up
- When I take off it's a netshow
- Running through the city, no pep talk
- I make it look easy, free throw
- You know I gotta get it so let's go
- This is more than a game
- I've been all caught on wave
- Rolling up on the way
- Gotta go, I can't wait (wait)
- Put the city on my back (back)
- Full speed 'cross the map (map)
- Save the world, no cap (cap)
- All I know is gotta go fast
- I've been, on the run and ain't no slowing me up
- Winning, got the rings and now I'm running it up
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Ballin', you can't catch me you'll be left in the dust
- Sonic, like the rings and now I'm running it up
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Ready set, let's get it
- Catching flights, not villains
- To the top, I stay with it
- Speed past, what's the limit?
- Operation gotta go
- On my tele50
- Level up, it's time to roll
- Knock 'em down dominos
- This is more than a game
- I've been all caught on wave
- Rolling up on the way
- Gotta go, I can't wait (wait)
- Put the city on my back (back)
- Full speed 'cross the map (map)
- Save the world, no cap (cap)
- All I know is gotta go fast
- I've been, on the run and ain't no slowing me up
- Winning, got the rings and now I'm running it up
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Ballin', you can't catch me you'll be left in the dust
- Sonic, like the rings and now I'm running it up
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- All I know is gotta go fast
- I've been, on the run and ain't no slowing me up
- Winning, got the rings and now I’m running it up
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Ballin', you can't catch me you'll be left in the dust
- Sonic, like the rings and now I’m running it up
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
- Gotta go
- Gotta go
- Gotta go fast, fast
