gotta go
Time to split
Gotta go is a casual way of announcing departure or ending a conversation, often abruptly: Sorry, gotta go—my ride's here.
The phrase contracts "got to go" and implies necessity or urgency, though the urgency may be manufactured to escape an unwanted situation.
It also signals needing to use the bathroom: I gotta go really bad.
