Sheen gets to the bone with "Self Esteem," is a raw, unfiltered moment in which one isn't afraid to be brutal in a world that so often isn't. What raises "Self Esteem" above your average heartbreak anthem is its duality: not only does it ache with susceptibility, but it also hums with quiet resilience. There's no tidy ending here, no artificial silver lining. It's a sharp, honest snapshot of someone between isolation and self-preservation.
The production is minimalist yet precise, letting the emotional weight of the lyrics breathe. The textures lean toward alternative R&B, adorned with glints of emotionally heightened pop, which is a natural sound for when you're not only listening but also feeling on late-night playlist dives.
"Self Esteem" puts its cards on the table: brooding, emotionally soaked melodies gracefully glide atop a production that comes off as both tender and razor-edged. It's the song that doesn't play in your ears but lodges in your chest. The album showcases Sheen's raw and unvarnished vocal delivery, which never descends into melodrama.
"Self-esteem" is a mirror for anyone who has ever poured themselves out, only to be left hollow. It examines the emotional residue of one-sided relationships, not only romantic ones but any time in your life where you gave too much and received too little back. The lyrics are at once a reckoning and a refusal. "I gave you everything, and you made me feel like nothing." It isn't a line but a scar put into the melody.
