Could you tell me what does "I've got to let it go" mean?

Here, "have got to" seems to be a present perfect tense, in fact it's not. "(have/has) got to" has the same meaning as "have to", "need to" or "must". Ex: I've got to make a decision. Ex : Did you have got to do? "Go" in this phrase means to release something. The phrase "let something go" means to release emotional feelings towards something or someone. It also can mean to figuratively relinquish someone from your grip, especially someone that you care about. Ex: She learned to let go of her anger towards her father. Ex: I want to learn to let go of my anxiety. Ex: You need to let him go. He is not good for you.
