Feel u bro
Did yāall see Fantano taking shots

For me this is more prominent in the second disc.
But starting with the cover, itās a picture of a black family.
On saviour he starts off by listing black figures, Cole, future, himself and I think Lebron? And how they arenāt your saviour, in the same song he goes on to question kyrie because of covid. Another indication as to why black people hold these individuals to such high regard?
Aunty stories again looking at the discrimination towards lgbtq community, and forcing the black community to look itself in the mirror especially the religious and ask why they throw around a word yet they understand how much pain a single word can cause a whole community.
Mr moral he mentions r Kelly (this is the second time in the album, first being we cry together) remember when he was mentioned on we cry together it was because kendrick aka black men donāt even acknowledge the idea r Kelly is how he is, so on mr moral he has now actually accepted it and is now actually wanting to get to the source as to why he is like that.
Of course mother I sober is quite self explanatory. He says the whole black community has essentially been rapped and they have carried on such traumatic cycles for generations and it is time to break the curse.
Ending with his kid (the next generation) saying thank you for breaking those generational curses.
TWO other big factors I noticed.
1. Every real life reference to a person kendrick names on the album (Oprah, r Kelly, drake, Kanye etc) is black, meaning he is only observing black people/society. I maybe mistaken but I donāt think he name drops a single white person.
2. Every time he addresses something white it is always venomous, he says crackers a few times and addresses the girl in world wide steppers as a white b****. Generally showing distain for them and them being secondary in his story.
This not so tightly knitted yet but I reckon that theory has legs.
I would agree with this theory 100%, except he features Beth Gibbons on Mother I Sober. If he really looked at white people 100% in that light, wouldnt it be an entire contradiction to feature a white person on the LP?

You get a purple hurt when youāre
either wounded or died while in service.
The previous song was him and her arguing and going back and forth in a very serious, toxic way.
Basically two wounded ppl arguing back and forth and not listening to each other.
Thatās why the hook for
Purple Hearts says āshut the f*** when you hear love talking.
