A nuisance of a declarative sentence

Princess Fiona: My only chance to live happily ever after is to marry my true love. Don' you see, Donkey? This is just how it has to be. It's the only way to break the spell.
Donkey: Well, you're at least got to tell Shrek the truth.
Princess Fiona: No, no. You can't breathed a word. No one must ever know.
Donkey: What's the point of being unable to talk? You got to keep secrets.
Princess Fiona: Promise you won't tell. Promise.
<From the movie "Shrek">
I'd like to know if "You got to keep secrets" implies "It seems like you got to keep secrets."
Thank you in advance for your help.
