Abandoned

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Look, I don't know if you know this But I don't even know how I'm gonna get through So I'm constantly ghosting Like, let me go, leave me 'lone 'Cause I'm in my zone and I gotta stay focused But I don't know where to go I got nowhere to go, all I got are emotions Sip the potion and that's how I cope when the door be closing Nobody's on the other side Lies get told, now they're rising the toll, making us wanna suicide And I might get old, but I'm writing for my youths Who been out here dying for the truth Why don't you tell me why I'm different to you And why we nеver make it to the morning nеws? I need the food and I don't got no Flybuy card All I wanna do is jump the fence from these dogs tryna bite my ass Yeah, and I try so hard tryna keep on keeping on Wanna be racist? Better sleep it off, but I stay woke 'Cause I know more than what they know And I can't talk to these fake jokes who gotta 'stay real with it' Steal my identity, all that I am and they say, "Deal with it"? Try to create then erase my image? But I am not what you made me to be, I am more Fighting for peace, so I'm stuck in the war Knees weak, 'cause I'm hoping to God That he gives me the keys that'll open the doors [Chorus] I don't think they understand me I'm takin' this stand for all of my family They don't care about this land The government a bunch of bandits We've been abandoned Strung a long way, too long for the crumbs And now we comin' for the whole cake Takin' no breaks till it's done, nah I don't think they understand me I'm takin' this stand for all of my family They don't care about this land The government a bunch of bandits We've been abandoned Strung a long way, too long for the crumbs And now we comin' for the whole cake Takin' no breaks till it's done, nah [Verse 2] I ain't in it for the fun, I ain't in it for the funds, I don't want none All I wanna see in life is a better life for my son and I'ma get it done Yes, indeed, that's a definite Plant a seed, put the effort in They be thinking that they're better than me Yeah, that's the reason that they never been I'ma take it to where it ain't never been Cops kill us without hesitance Lighter sentence for the white guy Got Australia looking American But we the original residents And they gave us poison as medicine They sell off all of our water And then they set fire to everythin' I can never trust them lads All they wanna do is set us back They don't even care what's on the other side 'Bout the loss of life or the genocide I get on the mic, tryna weaponise We ain't even really getting by They got it wrong, now we don't belong And all I wanna do is set it right [Chorus] I don't think they understand me I'm taking this stand for all of my family They don't care about this land The government a bunch of bandits We've been abandoned Strung a long way, too long for the crumbs And now we comin' for the whole cake Takin' no breaks till it's done, nah I don't think they understand me I'm takin' this stand for all of my family They don't care about this land The government a bunch of bandits We've been abandoned Strung a long way, too long for the crumbs And now we comin' for the whole cake Takin' no breaks till it's done, nah [Outro] I ain't in it for the fun, I ain't in it for the funds, I don't want none All I wanna see in life is a better life for my son and I'ma get it done I ain't in it for the fun, I ain't in it for the funds, I don't want none All I wanna see in life is a better life for my son and I'ma get it done
