cerebral slake - hello dad lyrics
[intro]
huh
so much on my mind
[verse 1]
h+llo dad, things haven’t been the same
since december 2010, there’s a numbness in my brain
a coldness in my heart, i don’t really feel the pain
you and mum separated but my eyes didn’t see rain
’cause i understood the reason
saw it from both perspectives
an impasse, i’m not mad
each to his respectives
funny, mama used to say
“ify, be careful of kids from broken homes”
i used to get an earful
but here we are, and thеre you are
i swear to you i miss you
you usеd to be my best friend
when i was really that little kid
with innocence to burn, curiosity for all
you lectured me on history and told me bout the world
that’s why i think it’s crazy that you barely ever call
and when i do, we barely talk, i guess i am appalled
you’re a fountain of knowledge
and it’s crazy what i’m missing
we drifted apart but if you call me i’d listen
[chorus]
if you call me i’ll listen
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll listen dad
if you call me i’ll pick up
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll pick up
if you call me i’ll listen
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll listen dad
if you call me i’ll pick up
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll pick up
[verse 2]
h+llo dad
i know losing your son was really hard
i hate to see you hurting, that really leaves me scarred
remember when you came over to try and bail me out
you felt pain was a luxury that you could do without
but you felt it and i saw it
even though you tried to hide it
if somebody had asked you, i bet you’d have denied it
carrying your son’s obituary
i don’t know how you did it
and handling the pressure
i don’t know how you did it
you saved our lives dad with the way you played your cards
if mum had heard it differently, she might not have survived
you ignored all your grief and managed the situation
thought about us first, you deserve an ovation
you’re getting old now
i’m dreading when your time to go will come
’cause i can’t handle that
i don’t know what i will become
your heart gets weaker, my nightmares glisten
we drifted away but if you call me i’ll listen
[chorus]
if you call me i’ll listen
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll listen dad
if you call me i’ll pick up
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll pick up
if you call me i’ll listen
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll listen dad
if you call me i’ll pick up
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll pick up
[verse 3]
h+llo dad
it’s tough, just look at me handling all the pressure
of being the only surviving son of the professor
i know my cgpa made you proud, but it’s you
even if i get a phd you won’t be satisfied
and i like that, i like the fact you keep me on my toes
i’ve been reading a lot lately, i kinda think it shows
regurgitating all the stories of the war you told me
flashback to dope times, i’m feeling really lonely
and mum is still mad at you, i’m sure you understand
i’m try’na fix the family ’cause right now i am the man
you’re no longer here and oscar is no more
being tough is something i was never known for
but i’ve had to step up and show some tough skin
i’m now too arrogant to ask you for one thing
how did we get here? dad i’m done wishing
we drifted away but if you call me i’ll listen
[chorus]
if you call me i’ll listen
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll listen dad
if you call me i’ll pick up
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll pick up
if you call me i’ll listen
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll listen dad
if you call me i’ll pick up
we drifted apart
but if you call me i’ll pick up
