Tkay Maidza Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh yeah, top of the morning ladies and gentlemen
We fly and above the sky, its 30,000 feet in the air right now
And last year was weird
LYWW radio let's go

Please stop by a witness
But you're caught up in the business
Mind your own business
Mind your own
Please stop by a witness



But you're caught up in the business
Mind your own business
Mind your own

Yeah, I'm ready on that private
Flow nice, but I'm never autopilot
Niggas tryna get a glimpse into my climate
Find this, tarot card I'm the highest
Flightless birds running like a virus
You can't ride with me, solo ride pirate
And my ego bigger than the mac truck
Tryna act tough, you might have to cut the banter
And give me five feet, stat, nigga back up
Getting way too close with the bad luck
Diamonds are the only ones that match up
And mad ones in my crew tryna pass up
I'm in my element, that's irrelevant, on a regimen
To my excellence, bitch do not disturb
Say it once, not twice, or I pick up the nerve
I'mma say it one time, better do not disturb
I'mma raise my feet to the Benz with the skrt
Make a nigga wanna hit it better, do not occur
Make a rude bitch mad, 'cuz my ex got the perc
And your friends pulling up, 'cuz my M's looking up
Yeah, young reckless
You can't test it, my gang weird
'Cuz I'm built like Tetris
New thing got a groove like Elvis
Going too ham, yeah don't touch my precious

Please stop by a witness
But you're caught up in the business
Mind your own business
Mind your own
Please stop by a witness
But you're caught up in the business
Mind your own business
Mind your own

Do you mind?
We don't have no reasons to rewind
Give me two fingers at a time
We don't have no reasons to rewind
Mind your own (yeah)

I been blessed by the gods
Divine my spirit, I'm against all the odds
But I keep winning 'cuz I pledge what I say
Yeah I do what I say, you can leave me alone
Been a wolf now, but I lead by my own
Clear door shackle left my demons at home
Got an LV bag with a 4 0 tag
I be way too clean, you can check my swag
Nigga wanna hate when I sway to bad
Too much on my plate that I can't compromise
If you can't keep a rhythm, gotta take what you have
'Cuz everybody works, I'mma take all my time
If you ain't know no, now you best know now
The one won money and the best know-how
On to the next, never do slow down
You don't wanna leave, but they can't solve mine

I didn't need a present
When did you learn your lesson?
What did you think that I would let you in?
No, I don't roll that way
I didn't need a present
When did you learn your lesson?
What did you think that I would let you in?
No, I don't roll that way

Please stop by a witness
But you're caught up in the business
Mind your own business
Mind your own
Please stop by a witness
But you're caught up in the business
Mind your own business
Mind your own

Do you mind
We don't have no reasons to rewind
Give me two fingers at a time
We don't have no reasons to rewind
Mind your own
Do you mind
We don't have no reasons to rewind
Give me two fingers at a time
We don't have no reasons to rewind
Mind your own

Oh yeah, you listening to LYWW radio
Sounds of weird shit
