Nasty C – Dear Oliver Lyrics
Verse 1
Dear Oliver, it`s your dad speakin`
I`m out in Cape Town makin` magic
In this hat reachin`, for a rabbit or maybe a parakeet
You give me drive like I toss you a pair of keys
I thought before I`d have you I would`ve asked your mama to marry me
But here I am with this ringless finger and no dirt on my knee
A month away ”˜til you breathe the air that I breathe
It`s 5AM in this booth and I would not leave until I-
Yeah
”˜Til I finish this letter and rap it to Ebenez
Let him record it and make sure it sounded heavenly
I`ve been workin` on things so you could meet the better me
I put my hand on your mother`s tummy and fall asleep
I`m just hopin` you kick your way into your father`s dreams
I got the rompers waitin` for you, you just wait and see
Split me how you want with your mama, y`all get all of me, yeah
I`ve never been so fuckin` nervous in my whole life
I flew back home to tell my dad I made a whole life
Got some advice and took some time to get my dome right
I paid your granny the traditional way
Zulu man so it only became official that day, yabo? Bro
When I get to hold you I`ll come back to this mic and I`ll tell you some more
Instrumental Break
Verse 2
(Ayy)
June 25 you arrived
I have to be the happiest man alive
Thankful to the big Guy in the sky, you survived
All praises to the most High
When I heard your first cry the first time, you heard mine
I couldn`t even hold it in, it just escaped me
Looked at bae like “We just made a baby, this is crazy “
Used to wanna die young, now I wanna touch eighty
And these pampers ain`t cheap, so if you owe me better pay me, yeah
I`m such a lucky guy, I can`t lie
I bought your crib for nothing, you sleep in my arms fine
I thought before I`d have you I`d live to see cars fly
But here I am in this traffic hoping I make it on time
Calculating ETA with the midwife on the line
And this IvySon shit my religion
Still saved by the Son but there`s one I call mine
My boy, yeah
Outro
And it`s been about a month since you touched down
This was meant to be, I feel it in my gut now
Son you`ve given me a whole new reason to conquer
If anybody touch you, I swear I`ll show them a monster
Rip them apart and turn them red, do a mud like lobster
Your mother named you after ?
A purest soul I`ve ever met
An angel in the form of a rockstar
May he rest in eternal peace
I`m not privy to God`s plans but I know that he`s earned a seat
And I`m confident certainly, yeah
