Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore 
You abandoned me
They say that trauma shit not real but it is (you a-)
You know?

Look
Swallowin' lies, trauma comin' up so I deal with it 
Ain't no pickin' sides, if you cross a line you gon' live in it
Head to the sky, like why you takin' the real niggas? 
If we went back in time I'd be a field nigga (you abandoned me)
Record labels capitalize off us, f*ck a deal, nigga
Conscious shit ain't cool, they rather hear you say you kill niggas (you a-)
Sexualize our women, glorify how we pop pills, nigga
When it's time to buy your masters back that's when they kill niggas
This rap shit get colder than the streets
F*ck buyin' chains and whips, we bought some land to plant these seeds
If it's up to me, I'd let all the dealers free
Know nigga's that's been locked since the 90s from sellin' weed (you abandoned me)
This ain't the land of the free, these nigga's thieves
Drop dope off in the ghetto then lock you for sellin' keys (you a-)
Broken mentally, but still won't hit that repeat
Reflections of my daddy, all his trauma live in me 
Look, I want more for my kids so I been dealin' with
Broken cycles from past lives I did it with
The power of God and all my ancestors
I don't chase after shit, my nigga, I manifest it (you abandoned me)

Oh
Baby girl at home watchin' Blippi
I'm movin' 'round the city clutchin' blicky (yeah)
I'm prayin' I survive 'til I'm fifty (oh)
And I'll use all my power
To create us a world where you ain't gotta miss me
Even when I'm gone
Manifest (you abandoned me)

Look
I know an atheist that don't believe in nothin'
What's funny is he still believe in somethin'
You don't hear me, I got a brother addicted to Nina clutchin'
Paranoid when he see the Reaper comin'
I got nigga's stuck in every walk of life (yeah, yeah)
My nigga work a nine-to-five and beat on his wife
It's been nights she called me screamin', just wishin' he died
Then wake up like it never happened
These everyday stories I tell through rappin'
Father, Mother, whoever You are, I need a sign
Never walk with the sheep, but I feel that you lead me blind
Twenty-seven years and I still feel like a child
But thankful for my growth 
I know my grandma be proud, nigga 
Grew up with wild niggas
Shootouts at the loud, nigga
See you when you owe him, he gon' dump into the crowd, nigga
And can still look in the mirror and smile
I was lost but this life shit got me figurin' it out (you abandoned me)
On God 

Oh
Baby girl at home watchin' Blippi
I'm movin' round the city clutchin' blicky (yeah)
I'm prayin' I survive 'til I'm fifty (oh)
And I'll use all my power
To create us a world where you ain't gotta miss me
Even when I'm gone
Manifest (you abandoned me)
