[19] Charlz released an acoustic version of that track as a single, in April 2017, in a collaboration with United Kingdom producer, Maths Time Joy.

Alongside her deep vocals and her smooth, melodious lyricism, this track features producer, Maths Time Joy in an atmosphere he creates full of creative musical stability.
