The vacuum and regret after breaking up with his loved ones is well described in the lyrics How am I supposes to tell you/I don't care to see you with anyone but me?/ Nobody gets me like you/How am I supplied to let you go? Only like myself when I'm with you.
Here are the lyrics of SZA's song Nobody Gets Me along with its translation:
[Verse 1]
Took a long vacation, no make-up, just Jay-Z (Taking a long holiday, without makeup, just accompanied by the song Jay-Z)
You were balls deep, now we beefin, had me butt-nated at MGM (You did it very deeply, now we create a commotion, you follow me in MGM)
So wasted screamin, Fuck that, love me now, but i anythin (a very futile escape, cheat with all that, love me, like I am everything)
Hurry now, baby, stick it in, fore the memories get to kickin' in
(Quick, dear, come back, before memories come to torture)
[Pre-Chorus]
It's too late, I don't worry
(Even though it's too late, I don't want to lose [mu])
[Chorus]
What's left of you
(What's left in you?)
How am I supplied to tell ya
(How should I tell you)
I don't care to see you with everyone but me
(I don't want to see you together with anything other than me)
Nobody gets me like you
(No one can understand me)
How am I supported to let you go?
(How to let you go?)
Only like myself when I'm with you
(I became myself only when I was with you)
Nobody gets me, you do (do)
(No one understands me other than you)
You do
(Only you)
Nobody gets me, you do (do)
(No one understands me other than you)
You do
(Only you)
Nobody gets me, you do
(No one understands me other than you)
You do, nobody gets me, you do
(Only you, Nobody understands me other than you)
[Verse 2]
Took me out to the ballad
(You take me to a ballet place)
You proposed, I went on the road
(You follow me, while I was traveling)
You were feeling empty, so you left me
(You feel lonely too, then you answer it)
Now I'm stuck dealing with a deadbeat
(Now I'm stuck dealing with myself who are like losers)
If I'm real, I deserve less
(If I were real, I would be inappropriate)
If I was you, I wouldn't take me back
(If I were you, I wouldn't come back to me)
I practice when I'm with a man, it's you
(I pretended when I was with another man who greeted me)
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know that it's too late, I don't care
(And I know it's too late, but I don't want to kill you)
[Chorus]
What's left of you
(What's left in you?)
How am I supplied to tell ya
(How should I tell you)
I don't care to see you with everyone but me
(I don't want to see you together with anything other than me)
Nobody gets me like you
(No one can understand me)
How am I supported to let you go?
(How to let you go?)
Only like myself when I'm with you
(I became myself only when I was with you)
Nobody gets me, you do (do)
(No one understands me other than you)
You do
(Only you)
Nobody gets me, you do (do)
(No one understands me other than you)
You do
(Only you)
Nobody gets me, you do
(No one understands me other than you)
[Outro]
You do,io gets me, you do (do,men)
(Only you, Nobody understands me other than you)
Nobody gets me, you do
(No one understands me other than you)
