  • I need to know what you want from me (what you need to know?)
    'Cause all you give me is promises (that's M-I-S to the T)
    You gotta give me your mind, body and soul (say you want a man that's true)
    'Cause I ain't taking nothing less (K-A to the V, like)

    I've been as patient as I could be (yeah)
    But you took advantage of me (and it makes no sense)
    All I ask is that you tell me this is where you wanna be, be, be

    I need to know if you wanna be with me
    No time for playing games
    Can't you see it's killing me?
    I don't think you're ready
    I need to know

    What you need to know?
    Private screen, can't see my phone
    I ain't waiting for my weed to grow
    'Cause my packs come straight through Heathrow
    And don't tell me that I'm playing games
    Big man ain't got time to waste
    Take the piss 'cause I like a chase
    And I rip up the road like Driva Dave
    Four-five calibre, cocaine trafficker
    Criminal damager, big Jeep ramming ya
    Cali weed packager, on sight savager
    Shotgun carrier, Emirates passenger
    Straight up Spartan soldier
    Who are you bruv? I don't know ya
    Mix magic with the coca, Wingardium Leviosa

    So I'm swerving deadly 'cause I'm herbing heavy
    Old school like Burberry
    This ain't a normal ride
    I'm in a sleeper but it's an all-wheel drive
    Long time from the bus round now
    When I touch down, step in the rave, shut down
    Long time from the bus round now
    When I touch down, step in the rave, shut down
    In the rave, I'm trouble
    Champagne and bubbles, get-get gyal in doubles
    Pimp-pimp game ain't subtle
    Got six gyal in my whip, no struggle
    There's no controlling me
    When I'm out, I clean up, I've got OCD
    No folding P's, just rolling trees
    I've got her so intrigued

    I need to know if you wanna be with me
    See, I ain't go no time, no time for playing games
    Can't you see it's killing me?
    I think you're ready, I need to know

    Do ya wanna be with me (me) like I wanna be with you (you)?
    Say I'm on a madness, true
    But you don't wanna see your heart broke in two
    True, you don't wanna link no numpty
    Spreading his seed all over the country (you what?)
    You don't wanna be stressed and grumpy (nah)
    You just wanna be blessed and comfy (yeah)
    You're a bassline junkie (junkie)
    And you like it funky (funky)
    This one's wicked and bumpy
    Buss two skanks in the dance, it's jumpy jumpy
    It's a Denon production (Denon Reed)
    And we don't need no introduction
    Anytime Crew 2 touch down in the function (function)

    K-A to the V, like, yo, who you talking to?
    Calm down, mush, who you talking to?
    The bouncer said "KAV, we can't let you in"
    I just looked at him like, "Who you talking to?"
    Pipe down, pipe down, mush, who you talking to?
    You don't wanna get brave, who you talking to?
    Wear DSquared jeans and brand new creps
    I always look fresh when I'm walking through
    Bassline ravers, Nike Air trainers
    Every weekend, living life like we're famous
    New flavors, bassline majors
    L-double-E-D-S, the team's dangerous
    Come on, girl, let me see you get down
    K-A to the V's back with a new sound
    This one goes out to my Leeds city crew
    So put your guns up and stick your chest out like

    I need to know if you wanna be with me (said I need to know)
    ('Cause I ain't got no time for playing games)
    No time for playing games (can't you see it's killing me?)
    Can't you see it's killing me?
    I don't think you're ready

    I need to know if you wanna-
    If you wanna be with me
    If you wanna-
    No time for playing games
    If you wanna-
    If you wanna be with me
    If you wanna-
    No time for playing games Writer/s: Denon Reed
