AbstrakPersonal denial and social rejection are two types of psychologicaldisorders which have the strongest bond with human.

Those two things hold a veryimportant role in forming psychological maturity. Realizing the importantvalue of learning personal denial and social rejection, a study on personaldenial and social rejection is worth conducted.This descriptive qualitative study analyzes personal denial andsocial rejection reflected in song lyrics.
