At this point in Lemonade, Beyonce realized her actions acted as a facade for her true feelings. Much after her revengeful episode, Beyonce transitions to her third and final emotion: forgiveness and acceptance. Soon thereafter, she continues to directly attack her relationship with Jay-Z by becoming more apathetic and “emotionless” (or at least she presumes herself to be). She begins by going around euphorically shattering cars and windows, expressing her freedom and anger as her sense of intuition turns into a feeling of betrayal. While underwater, she finally ends her depressive mood and partially escapes the spiral of sadness by attempting to criticize her own relationship. As her introspection continues, her depression becomes worse until it peaks at this moment, Beyonce stands alone on the edge of a building and jumps off, only to land into a bedroom submerged underwater. Beyonce spends much of her time pondering and questioning her trust with Jay-Z, like when she says “The need to know/Are you cheating on me?” (Beyonce ). Her depression in Lemonade starts off as a sense of intuition that Jay-Z may be cheating on her. Her emotions can be partitioned into three main parts, with the first emotion being depression.
In the album, Beyonce uses striking visuals, songs, and her avant-garde persona to display her emotions as she reacts to her cheating husband, Jay-Z. It is unlike any other studio album because the entire album is also a video production. Lemonade is an unorthodox visual album that is both produced and directed by Beyonce.
