Gotta Move
Navigating Life's Crossroads: Gotta Move by Za the Band
Lyrics
Tell me what am I supposed to do?
Telling the confusion and seeking guidance on the right course of action.
I'm only 23
Stating the age, emphasizing youth and potential indecision.
Should I spend my time on the internet
Questioning the value of spending time on the internet.
Watching faces on a screen
Reflecting on the detachment of online interactions, perhaps social media.
Should I head down to New York City
Considering a move to New York City, a symbol of ambition and opportunity.
Try not to sin
Expressing a desire to avoid sinful behavior in the pursuit of goals.
Should I stay right here in the dirty Jerz'
Weighing the option of staying in New Jersey, termed "dirty Jerz'."
Call it quits and pack it in
Contemplating giving up and abandoning current endeavors.
I gotta' move
Emphasizing the necessity to take action and make a decision.
Don't know what to do
Expressing uncertainty and confusion about the appropriate choice.
Got so much to prove
Feeling a need to prove oneself, possibly under pressure or expectations.
Don't know what to do
Reiterating the uncertainty and lack of clarity in the current situation.
Tell me how am I supposed to think?
Questioning how to approach thoughts and decision-making at the age of 24.
I'm only 24
Stating the current age and highlighting a sense of urgency or anxiety.
And it makes me sick that any one of us
Expressing discomfort about the potential for anyone to be sent to war.
Can get shipped on out to war
Highlighting the grim reality of the possibility of going to war.
When still we don't know
Expressing a collective uncertainty about identity and direction.
Who we are, or where to go
Expressing a lack of clarity about personal identity and life goals.
But at least I know it won't mean a thing
Asserting that individual efforts won't matter if undertaken in isolation.
If I do it on my own
Stressing the importance of collaboration and shared experiences.
I gotta' move
Reiterating the necessity to take action and make a move.
Don't know what to do
Expressing uncertainty and confusion about the appropriate choice.
I've got so much to prove
Feeling a need to prove oneself, possibly under pressure or expectations.
Don't know what to do
Reiterating the uncertainty and lack of clarity in the current situation.
Yeah I gotta' move
Emphasizing the necessity to take action and make a decision.
Don't know what to do
Expressing uncertainty and confusion about the appropriate choice.
I've got so much to prove
Feeling a need to prove oneself, possibly under pressure or expectations.
Don't know what to do
Reiterating the uncertainty and lack of clarity in the current situation.
