FEEL.
On "FEEL.", Kendrick catalogues the wide range of feelings, particularly the negative ones, that his stardom was elicited.
He feels like nobody is looking out for him, yet cites a strong desire to isolate himself from friends and family. He boasts about his status in music, but notes that the very same industry that he dominates is full of toxicity. Despite having been at the peak of his critical and commercial success over the past few years, Kendrick continues to grappe with emotional, interpersonal, and spiritual problems.
Kendrick routinely explores the darker sides of his life on his music---depression and self-hate are several things he's discussed before.
