Analysis

Track 6 on To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar.
Kendrick explains this song on an MTV interview. He explains that this song about his entire life and survivors guilt for making it out of Compton. He feels these feelings especially while on tour. A particular instance he references that happened on tour was 3 on his good friends he grew up with passed away and so once he's done with tour he has to go to their funerals and talk to their family, and that has done a lot to him psychologically.
This song is the opposite of "i" which appears later in the album.
