Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don′t care, uh
How about you baby?
I don't fuck, baby
Eh, lovingly
Let me hear you say
How about you boy?
I go-got to kill you mama
How about you boy?
Ah, yeah
Will you kiss me
In the midnight?
You got to feel alright
In the middle of the night
I break down
It'll cost weight
Whoa
But I still blow your heart
Let me hear you (good god)
And thought you got your way, yeah
Let me hear you won't
You blow me yeah, girl
You blow me, yeah
Blow your heart now
What do we do when you blow me funk?
Funk blow way
Say blow your heart Paquito
Why we do the funk blow way
Good god, hit it, baby
Good god, hah, yeah, yeah
Let me hear you
I′m asking, yeah
Come on now
Come on now, show me your blue
Lemme yeah, come on, one more time
Good god, hit it
The lyrics to Victor Olaiya’s song, "Cold Sweat" suggest an underlying theme of desire and sexual tension between two individuals. The singer is unabashed about their feelings, stating that they don’t care if their lover feels the same way, but they still yearn for their attention. The line "'I go-got to kill you mama' may imply an obsessive and possessive nature towards the lover, while 'Will you kiss me in the midnight?' and 'You got to feel alright in the middle of the night' suggests an inherent desire for physical connection. The use of 'blow' and 'funk' in the chorus may reference the sexual act, as well as the physical and emotional intensity between the two individuals.
The repetition of the phrase "let me hear you" is a call and response between the two individuals, emphasizing their need for validation and communication. The use of "good god" throughout the lyrics also suggests a religious or spiritual aspect to their desire, as if it is an irrevocable force outside of their control. The rhythm and melody of the song also emphasize the raw and visceral nature of their emotions, as well as their unrestrained passion.
