“I’m at the end of the show, and I see this young lady crying, and I’m thinking, She must be really going through something right now,” Kendrick explained to MTV News after the show. “Then I start hearing her murmur with her lips, ‘You saved my life.’ So I’m like, Damn. This is serious. This is not for play, why she’s out here right now. She came to see the person that actually helped her get through a life, through music.”

“Then she said, ’I was gonna kill myself last year.’ So I said, at that point, I gotta bring her up onstage and show her some love and let her know this is real.”

He did just that, as security helped her make her way onto the stage, where she broke down as the two shared a touching embrace.

“When I was 15, I was diagnosed with severe depression, and Kendrick got me through it,” Claire, who’s now 16, told MTV News, bravely opening up about her personal struggles (Due to sensitive nature of the subject, we’re only using her first name for this story).

“And I couldn’t have done it without him. I listened to his music over and over and there were nights where I thought I was going to end it all, and I didn’t, and I think that’s because his words impacted me in a way that no other artist has ever done. I can’t thank him enough. I can’t thank the people behind him enough for making him come to the earbuds that I listen to. I feel inseparable from his music.”

She didn’t think she’d ever be able to actually thank him, though. Until Saturday.

“He saw me crying, he tried to touch me, he couldn’t reach, and then he just said to the security guard, ‘Bring her up.’ And I lost it.”

“I told him I was gonna kill myself, and I think his music was the main reason that I didn’t,” Claire said. “Because I had myself — and my music.”

It's partially my fault for presenting the story in an obnoxious, gloating way.

This story really is great though. The effect of music can sometimes be under appreciated, and that's crazy. Because it's really fukking powerful.
