It was first previewed via Metro Boomin's social media accounts on May 25, 2023.[1]
"Home" is an emo synth-filled where Don Toliver and Lil Uzi Vert touch upon ideas of homesickness and self-battles.[2] while Lil Uzi Vert sings from the perspective of both themselves and Miles Morales from the film Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse: "Shoot my web, swing from these buildings and I'm finally free, And I can't help that everyone looks like I'm some kind of freak My shadow's the only one that follows me".[3] and also reference to themselves "I’ve been fightin' ground, hidin' my identity" in 2022 Uzi came out as non-binary.[4] [5] which was later confirmed by their spokesperson in a statement to Pitchfork.[6] In 2023 Woods confirmed that they identify as gender-nonconforming.[7]
Dylan Green of Pitchfork wrote that the artists' "best work" happens when they "broaden their horizons with some experiments", as when they "warp guitar strings" on the song,[3] while Peter A. Barry of HipHopDX referred to Toliver's chorus as "symbolic and melodically rich enough to be engaging".[2]
