Side On the Side
Saudí Lyrics

Baby, ngicela umoya I just need some time
Asking for some space and time to sort out his thoughts

Eish, fuck, I mean
Expressing frustration and confusion about his current situation

Just give me time (I just ask for time)
Reiterating his need for time and space

Yeah, i'skhashanyane (Stay by my side)
Asking his lover to stay by his side despite his current struggles

Ungapheli umoya I just need some time (You, you)
Addressing his lover, reaffirming his need for time to figure things out

Ngiphe is'khashanyana I'ma make you mine
Promising to make his lover his own

But you were never mine no no
Acknowledging that his lover was never truly his

I had to pick my heart and read between the lines
Realizing that he was being played

I've got a side on the side now
Admitting to having a side lover

Umakhwapheni wami even got a side now
Referring to his side lover as his mistress

I hope I make you proud now
Desiring approval from his main lover despite having a side lover

Nje' ngawe I've got a side on the side now
Confessing to his main lover about his side lover

My main side bitch said she wanna spend time
Referring to his main lover as his side bitch, and discussing her desire to spend time with him

Made her my main side coz ungwana is a dime
Deciding to make his main lover his main side chick because she is attractive

But I'ma leave her if she keep talking about umakhwapheni wami
Threatening to leave his main lover if she mentions his side lover again

As if we in love, as if she's my only one
Expressing frustration that his main lover is acting like she is the only one in his life

Just don't get greedy or
Warning his lover against getting too greedy

I Go Houdini yeah
Threatening to disappear like Houdini if his lover doesn't comply

Kodak I need me a lil baby who gone listen
Desiring a partner who will listen to him and follow his lead

Yennza what I say and don't worry about my bitches
Expecting his lover to do what he tells her and not stress over his other women

Can't make a hoe umakoti, girl you the definition
Explaining that he can't turn a slut into a wife, and calling his lover a hoe

Fell in love with a skheberesh, what got into me
Admitting that he fell for a promiscuous woman and regretting it

I broke Chloé's heart in high School, Karma is a bitch I guess
Reflecting on his past mistakes and accepting the consequences

But that don't justify how you lying to my face
Accusing his lover of lying to him despite his own past mistakes

How you gone let someone else what belongs to me Bae no no
Questioning how his lover could let another man have what belongs to him

You left me colder than the ice inside my lean
Feeling hurt and abandoned by his lover

Was down to give you all of me and everything
Willling to give his all to his lover

But it was never enough for you
Feeling like his efforts were not appreciated or reciprocated

I guess you ain't never understood when I told you (stay by side)
Realizing that his lover never truly stayed by his side

I've got a side on the side, on the side, on the side, no main bitch
Reaffirming his situation of having a side lover, and emphasizing that he doesn't have a main lover anymore

Nama yellow bones, ono'mpompi, nabo dark dindy
Listing different types of women he has been with

Abo gonqa e'Dubane, ama ndiya e'Jozi
Naming women from different cities in South Africa

And i share everything that I got with all of my
Admitting to sharing resources with his friends and mistresses

Hommies over hoes yeah
Preferring his friends over any lovers

Girl you used to treat my dick like a hose pipe
Recalling how his lover used to be sexually adventurous with him

I ain't never been the cuffing, loving, wifing type
Admitting that he is not the type to get serious in relationships

Always been a fuck another nigga's bitches type
Admitting to sleeping with other men's women

But for wena, mina will break all of the rules for you without no hesitation
Promising to break his own rules for his lover without hesitation

If only wena ube just a lil bit more patient
Wishing that his lover had more patience with him

Manje usung'qathe nabo makhwapheni bami
Acknowledging that his main lover knows about his side lover now

Bitches sending nudes and still angiku febelanga
Receiving explicit photos from women, and saying that he is not easily swayed

You was fucking rappers back when I was still a youngin
Implying that his lover was promiscuous even when he was young, and that he knows about it now

Couple years ago you wouldn't say you love me
Recalling that his lover was not expressive with her love in the past

Girl you were never mine, no no
Realizing that his lover was never truly his

I'm glad you ain't understood back when I told you (stay by side)
Feeling vindicated that his lover never stayed by his side despite his warnings
