[Chorus]
If you wanna go there, give it some time
If you wanna know whether is it your life
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie

[Verse 1]
Anyone who follow wanna see me going
Side by side they sit and bow
I keep it tight like a virgin show
When they see me fly one virgin ports
Tim to the country when antidote
What a shame in us, I will force it, ah
Just been a minute I'm calling shots
I only pass checks, you passing shots
Plus you pass gimme acid flux
Here to act up, no empire love
What an empire is I'm costing clouds
Could have been uprising states and clubs
5422 catch me right, in the crimson four by four I did
Time goes for you to catch me
I'm in but you won't know where that is

[Chorus]
If you wanna go there, give it some time
If you wanna know whether is it your life
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie

[Verse 2]
I don't shake cause they don't wanna show it's weak
They all do this make-believe
They don't have a decent theme
Mixed vibes when they deface me
Displace me, I'm treading on a tip daily
It's day to day basis
Criminal, they put me out don't remember faces
Got a live they hear and I hit it
Got the right to be here so I take it
Move back, I don't do that, that's a wrong lane
New cat's got a new [?] now I don't play
Who's that, they don't make no diff
True steps where the hoops that I'm running
Who kicks when the scandal fit, no fit
I work hard as I play no quit, no quit
Mind chop but it's in your bucks
Give time and the truth will hit

[Chorus]
If you wanna go there, gimme some time
If you wanna know whether is it your life
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie

[Post-Chorus]
If you won't give it, give it, give it
If you won't give it, give it time tonight
Don't say you will, don't say you will
If you won't give it, give it, give it
If you won't give it, give it time tonight
Don't say you will, don't say you will

[Verse 3]
No one to speak, you keep on playing
No one to speak, you keep on playing
No one expect you keep on playing
What is your life, you keep on playing
Don't act right on a decent day
Been on site but a decent place
No one to speak, you keep on playing
No one expect you keep on playing

[Bridge]
So tell me what you want
They'll whisper, but they won't show too
Cause this could be the last mile come
See far but they don't where ya from
So tell me what you want
They'll whisper, they won't show too
Cause this could be the last mile come
See far but they don't see where ya from

[Outro]
If you wanna go there, give it some time
If you wanna know whether is it your life
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie
If you wanna go there, give it some time
If you wanna know whether is it your life
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie
They're heading for me, they don't know a truth from a lie

Tkay Maidza

Tkay Maidza (real name Takudzwa Victoria Rosa Maidza) is an Adelaide-based rapper/singer known for her high-energy tracks and uncompromising take on Australian hip-hop. Born in Zimbabwe, hers is a talent and voice bucking the mainstream popularity of ‘skip-hop’.

I remember when I first started, I used to see things on Aussie hip-hop forums…[People] being like, ‘Hey guys, do we like this?’ And then the guys would be like, ‘Um nah, it’s too pop for me,’ or, ‘It’s too weird,’ or, ‘This isn’t real.’ And in the beginning I was just really sad, but then I started to realise that what I was doing was not for them and it didn’t bother me…I began to understand that I didn’t really want to fit in, and I didn’t mind.

Debut single “Brontosaurus” was released when she was only seventeen years old and received strong support from national radio station Triple J. She cites Santigold and Nicki Minaj as inspirations. Her admirers include Killer Mike who gave her a shout-out and guest verse on single “Carry On”.
