In reality, human consciousness can make two decisions, namely ignoring or accepting the situation. To reject and condemn it is to worry about it.

With data collection techniques through observation, documentation and literature study. As well as using the Miles and Huberman model data analysis techniques which include data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions/verification. The researcher uses Teun A. Van Dijk's critical discourse analysis model, because based on discourse analysis, Dijk does not only rely on textual analysis, because texts are only the result of production practices which must also be scrutinized. but also in analyzing how the text was created, in order to gain knowledge of why the text came to be. There are dimensions of text structure, social cognition and social context which are an integral part of Van Dijk's framework. Based on the presentation of data and critical discourse analysis modeled by Teun A. Van Dijk by discussing the overall meaning of the song on the album "Abdi Lara Insani: Edisi Legkap" and the construction of the meaning of social criticism from the lyrics of the song "Song of Criticism Again" by .Feast.
