When you say "I've got" it means "I possess" an item (present tense) or you could say "I presently have" this item. When you use "I got" it means that have "just obtained" an item, as in, it happened already and its over (past tense).
I've got:
I've got to get out of here. I've got a dollar. I've got to hear what happens next.
I got:
I got paid today. I got kicked out of the bar. I got trapped by a angry looking dog, so I had to wait for it to leave.
Can you give the full question and answer?

The simplest way to explain them may be:

"I got"="I get" (past tense). Refer to @zerenamoon's examples above.

"I've got"= "I have". Refer to @zerenamoon's examples above.
