The title “Let’s Make it” explains that couples in healthy and positive relationships have a fundamental understanding of the proper and appropriate expectations for a stable and long-lasting relationship. They understand that not all days will be full or passion and romance. Similarly, they understand that rough spots in a relationship may only be temporary if good communication is present to work through these times.

The title “Kwasuka Sukela” Talks about Whatever you are physically...male or female, strong or weak, ill or healthy--all those things matter less than what your heart contains. If you have the soul of a warrior, you are a warrior. All those other things, they are the glass that contains the lamp, but you are the light inside.

"Sire''(A male parent of an animal such as dogs and horses),was a respectful form of address for reigning kings in Europe,Belgium,France,Italy,Germany,Sweden,Spain and the United Kingdom.Historically ''Sire'' had a wider range of usage.

''Sir''(Shortened from ''Sire''),is an honorific address.The term can be used as a formal prefix,for males who have been given certain honours or tittles(such as knights,pastors,baronets etc).
Used as a respectful way to address a man,usually of superior social status.

There has been a negative connotation behind this term as it has been believed that,the British during their rule demanded all Indians to address them as ''Sir''(Slave I Remain)in this context.

Contrary to the controversy behind this term.
I have found the term ''Sir''(Slave I Remain) to being fit in defining the relationship I have had with music ever since I was born. I have remained a slave to music over the past years,Hence the title of the song.

That's how ''Sir''("Slave I Remain to the music'' was birthed.
