The song has been described as "808-heavy". It features two verses from Polo G, who sings about his old life in the streets and his new life and fame, as a celebration of his 21st birthday.[1][2][3] Additionally, he talks about his drug use, citing the death of his friend Juice Wrld as motivating him to not relapse on drugs.[1][4]
The official music video was directed by Cole Bennett and released on June 15, 2020. It opens with a hooded gunman who shoots at Polo G as he wakes up in his room. Polo walks through a drug house, a prison and the hallways of a backlot, while the unseen attacker follows and periodically fires at him.[3][4] Objects levitate around the Polo, and Juice Wrld also makes a small cameo in the video.[1][4] The video ends with the shooter removing his hood and revealing to be Polo G himself, who then grows horns resembling that of the Devil beneath his dreadlocks.[4]
