You can use the lyrics of Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter to manifest your dream life.

One of the ways you can fast-track your manifestation process is by using music to bring your dreams into reality.

Musicians do it all the time, and music lovers don’t even always notice.

Sabrina admitted that Espresso was written as “a manifestation tactic,” and I will get more into the details of that later.

But first, let’s dive into how you can use these lyrics for yourself in your manifestation process.

First, use the opening line as an affirmation

The very first line of Espresso can be repeated consistently as an affirmation for attracting true love and romance.

It states, “Now he’s thinking about me every night oh. Is that sweet? I guess so.”

When you spend time affirming that a special someone is thinking of you constantly, you’re solidifying that affirmation.

One of the ways we can talk ourselves out of feeling like we’re good enough is by thinking of ourselves as an afterthought, someone who is easily forgotten, easily replaceable, or not really worth chasing after.

The intro line to this entire song debunks all of that when she affirms that a special someone is thinking about her every night.

Keep in mind that you don’t have to have a specific person on your mind to use this song as a manifestation tactic.

It can be more of an umbrella that opens the door to helping you feel more widely desirable in general.

Second, release desperate energy ASAP

In the third section of the song, Sabrina sings, “I can’t relate to desperation. My give-a-fucks are on vacation.”

This is one of the most crucial lines from the song to truly embody.

Desperation is what repels manifestations. Desperate energy acts as a repellent to whatever you’re trying to call in.

If you’re feeling super desperate about a specific manifestation, whatever it is, you are showing the universe that you are living in a state of lack.

You’re constantly being reminded of the fact that you do not have it yet. Desperate energy is proof that you are missing something you care about.

If you can release desperate energy by sending your give-a-fucks on vacation, you will elevate into a much more powerful position.

I think of the analogy this way: the tighter someone squeezes something, the more they make it want to run away.

From my own personal experience dating an extremely needy, clingy, and manipulative ex-partner, the more he squeezed me and tried to control me to make me stick around, the more it made me want to break free and run away.

My husband, who I’m married to now, is calm, relaxed, levelheaded, and trusting.

He doesn’t squeeze me for dear life because he knows that I’m always going to come home to him and I’m always going to be loyal.

He doesn’t call me 20 times in a row or put pressure on me to come home early whenever I want to go out or socialize with my friends.

And because of that, it makes me respect him more. It makes me want to be with him more. It makes me miss him more when we’re apart.

Removing desperate energy from your life, especially when it comes to relationships, is one of the best ways to make manifestation work for you.

This also applies outside of romantic love. Desperate energy when trying to call in a job, lose weight, attract solid friendships, or anything else will all have the same result if you are emitting desperate energy into the world.

There are some concrete ways to eliminate desperate energy. One way is shifting a bit of your focus to another manifestation.

Sometimes, the best way to release desperate energy is to loosen your grip on one big desire and redirect some of your attention to another.

Some Law of Attraction teachers preach that you should go all in on one manifestation and only focus on one at a time. If that works for you, amazing!

But if you’re noticing yourself becoming hyper-fixated and desperate on one manifestation, it’s okay to shift some of your energy elsewhere.

Having multiple desires to nurture keeps your energy balanced and lighter.

The second way you can release desperate energy is by praying for alignment in a way that resonates with you.

I have a specific prayer with God that I use whenever I’m manifesting a specific goal.

It is this: “Lord, please grant me the tools I need to execute this manifestation. Or, if it’s not aligned with my highest good, remove the desire from my heart entirely. Or, give me the patience to wait for your perfect timeline.”

Here’s why this prayer works: If the manifestation is right for you, then you’ll be guided with the right tools to execute it and make it happen.

If it’s not actually meant for you, then the desire will fade from your heart—and that’s a blessing because you’ll no longer obsess over it.

And thirdly, if it is meant for you but the timing isn’t right at this moment, then God will grant you the necessary patience that you might need.

You have to remember that God doesn’t always hand over a fully baked cake. Sometimes He gives you the ingredients one by one over time so that eventually you can put everything together to bake the cake in a gradual process.

Even if it’s not overnight, the tools might be coming to you in divine timing so that you’re perfectly prepared when the moment actually arrives.

A third way to release desperate energy is to enter receiving mode through gratitude.

The fastest way to escape desperate energy is through showcasing gratitude since that is the opposite of operating in a state of lack.

Gratitude reminds you of all the abundance you already have, and that energy is magnetic.

By actively acknowledging and honoring what you’ve already manifested in your life, you instantly enter receiving mode.

Desperate energy will block you, but refocusing your attention, leaning into your faith, and practicing gratitude will open the right doors.

Third, embody the energy of a hot, wealthy, & loved girlie

The next line from Sabrina you can lean into for manifestation is: “Too bad your ex don’t do it for you, walked in and dream came trued it for you, soft skin and I perfumed it for you, yes I know I Mountain Dew it for you.”

This line is super empowering because it puts you in a position to think about your greatness and how amazing you actually are.

This line mostly focuses on attracting romantic love since she talks about the way his ex doesn’t “do it” for him.

Whether you have a specific person on your mind or you are openly just trying to attract true love into your life, most adults have had failed past relationships.

Acknowledging that his ex didn’t totally satisfy him isn’t problematic because that’s his ex for a reason.

But the words after that are what are actually the most empowering part.

Sabrina sings about walking in the room as his dream come true. She is radiating the energy of being his dream girl.

Everyone deserves to be the dream girl of their partner!

If your partner doesn’t see you as their dream girl, then what are you really doing???

Affirming that you are your partner‘s dream girl and you’re making their dreams come true by being with them is super iconic and magnetic.

From personal experience, when I was manifesting my marriage with my husband, one of the things I was constantly writing in my journals (in present tense language) is that I would be my husband‘s dream girl.

I wanted him to view me as the girl of his dreams more than anything else. I didn’t care if I was everyone else’s dream girl. I just knew I wanted to be my future husband’s dream girl.

I didn’t even know who my future husband was yet and I hadn’t met him, but I was focused on creating a reality for myself where he would enter my life and see ME as the girl of HIS dreams.

The type of wording you use when describing your dream relationship should specify lingo about being your partner’s dream girl or being their dream come true.

Next, Sabrina mentions soft skin that she perfumes for him.

That’s another thing I did in the process of manifesting my soulmate relationship.

Even though I was single, and no one was touching me or even getting close enough to catch a whiff of my scent, I maintained my hygiene and kept my skin super soft with regular wax appointments and sugar scrubs in the shower.

That’s because I knew I wanted to attract my future husband and energetically create space for him in my lifestyle as if he was already in my life.

I knew my future husband deserved to have a wife with super soft skin and who smelled fresh and delicious.

Therefore, I made it a point to maintain my femininity, hygiene, and overall beauty in the process of attracting him.

So on the day I actually met him, everything was already aligned, and I didn’t feel like I had to rush into preparation before sharing intimacy with him.

There are several other lines in this song by Sabrina that are catchy, silly, and flirty, but the ones I covered are the ones that deeply resonated with me.

I started the process of manifesting my husband on January 1, 2021, and I met him five months later on June 1 of that same year.

This song by Sabrina didn’t come out until 2024, so it’s interesting how relevant a lot of the vibes actually are to me at this point!

Here’s what Sabrina actually said about it…

As far as what Sabrina said in her interview with The Guardian, she explicitly revealed that she wrote the song with the goal of manifesting romantic attention.

She said, “It was a manifestation tactic because no one liked me romantically at that time. No one was obsessed with me. I didn’t have anyone I was even talking to.”

She went on to say that she’s “always been a bit delusional in that sense.”

The thing about being labeled delusional in the manifestation world is that it’s actually a compliment.

Being told to be realistic is extremely insulting. I personally hate when people tell me to be realistic because it’s like they’re trying to trap me in their small-minded box of what they think is humanly possible.

They have a restrictive view on what’s possible. They’ve subconsciously limited themselves before even attempting to have a big life to avoid possible let-downs or disappointments.

But the more delusional you are, the easier it is for a manifestation to flow to you.

If you have more delusion, it means you have more audacity. Good things happen to those who aren’t scared to go out and get them.

But the secret hack for many successful people is that, on top of taking inspired action, we must also have an unwavering belief system backing us up that good things are coming our way.

Did the song work for Sabrina’s own manifestation journey?

So did Espresso work as a manifestation tactic for Sabrina? Well, the answer is a resounding FUCK YES.

She ended up in a year-long relationship with Barry Keoghan from the end of 2023 until the end of 2024.

Rumors about the start of their relationship sparked way before their red carpet debut at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party.

Then they showed up at the Met Gala together in May 2024.

Another detail that solidified their relationship was that Sabrina invited him to star in her music video for the song Please Please Please in June 2024.

The whole time they were together, Barry was constantly hyping her up in interviews, talking about how lucky he was, and revealing his excitement for a chance to date someone like her.

So even though the relationship crumbled, the lyrics of Espresso hit home regarding her relationship with Barry.

And beyond that relationship, she’s also become one of the most sought-after blonde bombshells of this generation.

Countless Reddit threads have been launched by thirsty men describing their obsession with her and pleading for a chance to meet her.

Her comment sections on Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter are filled with men begging her to take them on a date.

A lot of this attention shifted to her following the success of Espresso.
