Logic ft. Alessia Cara and Khalid: "1-800-273-8255"

Logic used the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline number as this song's title on purpose. "In [this song] we hear a person at the end of their rope," Logic said. "We then hear words from the perspective of the Lifeline counselor who in turn gives them many reasons to keep fighting for their life. Finally, we hear the caller express their new lease on life and outlook on a life that they thought was over but had actually been far from it all along." According to statistics released by the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, on the day that Logic's song was released, the Lifeline received the second-highest number of calls it had ever fielded.
