Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
Saging my bedroom
– Ukuhlakanipha ekamelweni lami
Dusting every surface, every corner
– Ukufaka uthuli kuyo yonke indawo, kuwo wonke amagumbi
Pleading and praying it gets warmer
– Ukunxusa nokuthandaza kuyafudumala
In this hollow winter tide
– Kuleli gagasi lasebusika elingenalutho
Three hours of sunlight
– Amahora amathathu okukhanya kwelanga
Don’t really matter when you’re deprived
– Ungakhathazeki ngempela uma uphucwa
Of happiness, enweakened, advised
– Injabulo, enweakened, weluleka
To find some oxygen
– Ukuthola umoya-mpilo
Sweeter pastures, wait for me like a lover
– Amadlelo amnandi, ngilinde njengothandekayo
My soul has suffered, get the fuck out of my atmosphere
– Umphefumulo wami uye wahlupheka, khipha umoya wami
I’m breathing clean, clean air
– Ngiphefumula umoya ohlanzekile, ohlanzekile
Went through an X-ray
– Wadlula nge-X-ray
Doctor said there’s nothing left to see now
– Udokotela wathi akukho okusele ongakubona manje
Nothing weird or scary, although somehow
– Akukho lutho olungajwayelekile noma olwesabekayo, nakuba ngandlela-thile
Your heart turned back to gold
– Inhliziyo yakho yaphenduka igolide
Guess I’d been wounded
– Ngicabanga ukuthi ngilimele
Tiny comments ricocheted like bullets
– Amazwana amancane ayephuma njengezinhlamvu
Cyclone on a sunny day, you shook it
– Isiphepho ngosuku olunelanga, wena shook it
And dragged me down to hell
– Futhi wangidonsela esihogweni
Now sweeter pastures, wait for me like a lover
– Manje amadlelo sweeter, ngilinde like a lover
Lord knows I’ve suffered, get the fuck out of my atmosphere
– Inkosi iyazi ukuthi ngiye ngahlupheka, ngikhiphe umoya wami
I’m breathing clean, clean air
– Ngiphefumula umoya ohlanzekile, ohlanzekile
Oh-oh-oh
– Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, clean air
– Oh-oh, umoya ohlanzekile
Oh, I’m breathing clean, clean air
– Oh, ngiphefumula umoya ohlanzekile, ohlanzekile
