Heavy-K Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kuthiwa uthando luyapholisa
Bendicel'undinike olwakho
Kuthiwa uthando luyathambisa
Bendicel'undenze ndibe ngowakho

β€˜Cause now I need you, I need you right now
My lonely feelings, need you to go down
β€˜Cause now I need you, I need you right now
My lonely feelings, need you to go down

Ndicela undithinte, undithathe undivise
Undi.. Tha... Tha...
Undithande ngenyani
Ndicela undithinte, undithathe undivise
Undi.. Tha... Tha...
Undithande ngenyani

Ndithande ooh whoa
Ndithande ungaz'uyeke
Ndithande ooh whoa
Ndithande ungaz'uyeke

Kuthiwa uthando lwangempela
Soze ndilifumane kuwe
Kodwa ndithembis'intliziyo yakho
Ndilinde uzinikezele kum

β€˜Cause now I need you, I need you right now
This pain is heavy I need you to go down
The storm and thunder I need the cold now
My lonely feelings need you to go down

Ndicela undithinte, undithathe undivise
Undi.. Tha... Tha...
Undithande ngenyani
Ndicela undithinte, undithathe undivise
Undi.. Tha... Tha...
Undithande ngenyani

Ndithande ooh whoa
Ndithande ungaz'uyeke
Ndithande ooh whoa
Ndithande ungaz'uyeke

Ndithande ooh whoa
Ndithande ungaze uyeke
Ndithande ooh whoa
Ndithande ungaze uyeke

Ndicela undithinte, undithathe undivise
Undi.. Tha... Tha...
Undithande ngenyani
Ndicela undithinte, undithathe undivise
Undi.. Tha... Tha...
Undithande ngenyani

Ndithande ooh whoa
Ndithande ungaze uyeke
Ndithande ooh whoa
Ndithande ungaze uyeke

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Heavy-K's song Uyeke are a plea to a loved one. The song starts by stating that love can be painful, but the singer is willing to endure the pain as long as he can be with his lover. The repetition of the phrase "kuthiwa uthando" means "they say love" in Xhosa, a South African language, suggesting that the love the singer is talking about is discursive or experienced through the social sphere.


The chorus then repeats the phrase "Cause now I need you, I need you right now, My lonely feelings, need you to go down" emphasizing the sense of urgency felt by the singer. The following verse expresses the physical longing for the lover, asking them to touch and hold him. The repetition of "unda" in "ndicela undithinte, undithathe undivise, undithande ngenyani" means "touch" in Xhosa, again emphasizing the physical aspect of love.


The song then ends on a melancholic note, affirming the singer's love and faith in the lover but acknowledging that love is not always easy. The repetition of "ndithande ooh whoa, ndithande ungaze uyeke" means "I love you, don't leave me" in Xhosa.

@josephkabange6316

What recognition are you talking about when Heavy K is recognized all over Africa, and for your own info he's worked with almost every big artist in South Africa and internationally.
