Background

NF raps about his growth as an artist, dealing with fame and his new found success.[3]

Feuerstein dedicated the song to his come up from his worldwide hit, Let You Down. He discussed his success in an interview with New Musical Express:[4]

"Honestly, for me I think it's just being myself and being authentic. I think when people listen to music they can truly feel authenticity. For me personally, as a listener, there are certain songs where I'm just like: man, I know that person was really feeling that... And so what I've realized is I just went in writing and being myself, and then there are so many people out there who feel like me and want to say the things that I have to say but maybe don't know how to say them. And I just feel like just how some artists have been a voice to me, I've kind of been a voice for other people."

Music video

The official music video was released on January 18, 2018, on NF's Vevo channel.[5] The video showcases NF rapping in a dark alleyway.

gollark: Just constantly shout "TURN THE VOLUME DOWN" until they get rid of you and/or turn it down!
gollark: Actually, instead of ear protection you can use *active* sound blocking, by carrying around a giant set of speakers and automatically playing the Soviet national anthem at twice the volume of whatever they're playing.
gollark: *can't tell if serious*
gollark: Just go to live concerts but constantly wear very good ear protection to avoid hearing it!
