Ooh
[Verse 1: TobyMac & Caller]
Yeah, hello?
Yo Tob, what's up?
A whole lot
What you doing?
Hangin' with Truett, tryin' to make music
Hustlin' Gotee, I'm getting no sleep
Yo, uh, you mind if I call you back next week?
[Chorus]
I gotta go, I'm 'bout to do a show
Can't take the stress, wanna give you my best, Lord
I can't sing with this hangin’ over me
But the show must go on, Lord, set me free
I gotta go, I'm 'bout to do a show
Can't take the stress, wanna give you my best, Lord
I can't sing with this hangin’ over me
But the show must go on, Lord, set me free
[Interlude]
(Set me free, set me free...)

[Verse 2: TobyMac & Cupid]
Hello?
Yo Tob, what's up?
Too much
What you doing?
Same as yesterday, I'm here with John Reuben
Yo, tell him I said “hey”
What's your name?
Yo, it's Cupid
Cupid?
Yeah man, I gave you a demo, on the cover there's a halo
Uh, yeah, I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet
Yo, could you hold on dude? My wife is beepin' in
*(Beep)*
Baby, I know I'm s'posed to be home at 6
I'm just finishing this mix, they're burnin' me a disc
I got some dude named Cupid on the other line
I love you... baby?
Yo, T, uh, it's still me man
Oh
[Chorus]
I gotta go, I'm 'bout to do a show
Can't take the stress, wanna give you my best, Lord
I can't sing with this hangin’ over me
But the show must go on, Lord, set me free
I gotta go, I'm 'bout to do a show (I got to go)
Can't take the stress, wanna give you my best, Lord (I can’t sing)
I can't sing with this hangin’ over me (Set me free)
But the show must go on, Lord, set me free
[Post-Chorus]
Sorry, I'm not much for conversation (I need some—)
Sorry, I'm not much for conversation (I need some—)
Sorry, I'm not much for conversation
I need some time with God and a mental vacation
(Time with God and a mental—)
What you got, Tru?
[Break: TruDog, TobyMac, Both]
TobyMac can't get to the phone
Please leave a message after the tone (What you got, Tru?)
TobyMac can't get to the phone
Please leave a message, please leave a message
TobyMac can't get to the phone
Please leave a message after the tone (What you got, Tru?)
TobyMac can't get to the phone
Please leave a message, please leave a message
I'm just a little man tryin' to fit in God's plan
[Chorus]
I gotta go, I'm 'bout to do a show
Can't take the stress, wanna give you my best, Lord
I can't sing with this hangin’ over me
But the show must go on, Lord, set me free
I gotta go, I'm 'bout to do a show (I got to go)
Can't take the stress, wanna give you my best, Lord (I can’t sing)
I can't sing with this hangin’ over me (Set me free)
But the show must go on, Lord, set me free
[Post-Chorus]
Sorry, I'm not much for conversation (I got to go) (I need some—)
Sorry, I'm not much for conversation (I can’t sing) (I need some—)
