What You Need
The Weekend Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tam na skraju nocy i początku dnia
Historię która śpiewam mały chłopiec znał
Zwali go tam pito niewiele liczył lat
Małej huanicie cicho szeptał tak

I need you każda nuta tobie z mego serca już
I need you choć dużo dróg przede mną moja miłość tu
I need you każda nuta tobie z mego serca już
I need you choć dużo dróg przede mną moja miłość tu

Jaki z tego morał mały pito wie
Bo gdy bardzo kochasz noc raduje się
A ja bardzo chciałbym kończąc opowieść tą
Żeby każdy kochał tak jak pito ją

I need you każda nuta tobie z mego serca już
I need you choć dużo dróg przede mną moja miłość tu
I need you każda nuta tobie z mego serca już
I need you choć dużo dróg przede mną moja miłość tu

I need you

I need you każda nuta tobie z mego serca już
I need you choć dużo dróg przede mną moja miłość tu




I need you każda nuta tobie z mego serca już
I need you choć dużo dróg przede mną moja miłość tu

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "What You Need" by The Weekend (originally in Polish) tell the story of a young boy named Pito who is living on the edge of night and day. He is in the company of a small group of people who are engaging in drug use and hedonistic behavior. Despite his young age, Pito understands the allure of these activities and whispers his desire to continue in this lifestyle. The singer of the song interjects and declares their need for the object of their affection, no matter how far away they may be or how many obstacles they face. The song ends with the singer wishing for everyone to love as openly and intensely as Pito loves the moment.


The lyrics of "What You Need" are open to interpretation. One possible reading is that they are a commentary on the allure of hedonism and the dangers of excess. Pito's youth and naivete make him a symbol of the innocence that can be lost when one indulges in dangerous behaviors. The singer's need for love, despite the risks, could be seen as a reflection of the desire to feel alive and passionate. The song could also be seen as a celebration of youth and the recklessness of living in the moment.


Line by Line Meaning

Tam na skraju nocy i początku dnia
At the edge of night and the beginning of day


Historię która śpiewam mały chłopiec znał
The story I sing the little boy knew


Zwali go tam pito niewiele liczył lat
They called him 'pito' he didn't count his age


Małej huanicie cicho szeptał tak
To the small whore he whispered quietly


I need you każda nuta tobie z mego serca już
I need you, every note already belongs to you from my heart


I need you choć dużo dróg przede mną moja miłość tu
I need you, although there are many roads ahead, my love is here


Jaki z tego morał mały pito wie
What moral there is, little 'pito' knows


Bo gdy bardzo kochasz noc raduje się
Because when you love deeply, the night rejoices


A ja bardzo chciałbym kończąc opowieść tą
And I would very much like, ending this story


Żeby każdy kochał tak jak pito ją
That everyone would love like 'pito' did


I need you
I need you


I need you każda nuta tobie z mego serca już
I need you, every note already belongs to you from my heart


I need you choć dużo dróg przede mną moja miłość tu
I need you, although there are many roads ahead, my love is here


I need you każda nuta tobie z mego serca już
I need you, every note already belongs to you from my heart


I need you choć dużo dróg przede mną moja miłość tu
I need you, although there are many roads ahead, my love is here

[Intro: Aaliyah]
There, now hold me close
There, now hold me close
There, now hold me close
There, now hold me close
There, now hold me close
There, now hold me close

[Verse 1: The Weeknd]
I just want to take you there
He don't gotta know where
Does he touch you here like this?
Let me take the friction from your lips

[Hook: The Weeknd]
And I'mma love you girl, the way you need
Ain't no one gon' stop us, ain't no one gon' stop us
And I'm gon' give you girl, what you fiend
I'm the drug in your veins, just fight through the pain
He's what you want, he's what you want
He's what you want, he's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
He's what you want, he's what you want
He's what you want, he's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need


[Verse 2: The Weeknd]
I got everything you want with me
I do everything he does times three
And he don't gotta know
I got you on the floor, doing things you never thought you'd do
Baby, leave them high heel shoes
Cause I love it when you're looking down at me, I'm looking up at you
And I don't give a damn shorty, watch me knock your boots off

[Hook: The Weeknd]
And I'mma love you girl, the way you need
Ain't no one gon' stop us, ain't no one gon' stop us
And I'm gon' give you girl, what you fiend
I'm the drug in your veins, just fight through the pain
He's what you want, he's what you want
He's what you want, he's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
He's what you want, he's what you want
He's what you want, he's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need

I remember when he was unknown. Like nobody knew what he looked like. I remember when his music was for the underground. Dark. Emotional. Drugs. Euphoria. 10 years later I wouldn’t have guessed this for him but I’m glad he’s successfully a star.

@bchild10

Me too he purposely wouldn’t be in his videos for longest

@CleanLogo

"Dark. Emotional. Drugs. Euphoria." and thats why hes famous.

@jaydevvadodaria6628

Yes, he said he never did interviews or wanted to show his face as he wanted to be known for his music and nothing else.

@d0wnward_sp1ral

I remember an old picture of him standing in a creepy looking hallway, leaning against the wall. That's one of my favorite photos of him so far.

@jhonnyhernandez7283

Man tell me about it. Thanks to drake he got a little more known but he had great songs before drake.
