one thing to add is he's speaking from 'u' as if somebody else is speaking to him which is something the mind does a lot, it tries to perceive u in the way others perceive u and in turn kinda makes u hate yourself, but as a matter of fact that is not the true you. while in 'i' he's rapping/speaking more in a self love type of way cus he's viewing the decisions he's made in an 'i' perspective, and knows again why he did the things he did since he actually views himself as him and not as another person.
@@daraquesto2277 and thus my original comment is created and aimed directly at people like you. So idk what else you expect other than a clear obvious expectation. But if you need more than that, I'd just suggest giving up on thinking
Kendrick the best storyteller. I remember seeing that he said he rented a hotel room, got hammered, wrote and recorded this whole song in 1 night. My fav Kendrick song.
Theres a hint on the song where he is talking to himself, i think on 2nd verse he talks abt him being the main reason why there are so many deaths on compton and he was talkin abt his best friend Chad who died from a drive by, he said that he is such an asshole to not visit him in the hospital and just facetime him. FEAR, Sing About Me, God Is Gangsta and this song are just dark as hell
