Ain’t and gotta

I have a sentence below:

You ain’t gotta believe me.

In this sentence, If i’m not wrong, Does ain’t mean have not? and Does gotta mean got to?

So, it means You have not got to believe me. I’m I correct?

Answer

Yes, you are correct. Most fluent English speakers would say in formal grammar:

You do not have to believe me.
