The video co-stars actress Alix Lapri and sees Key Glock executing daring, violent heists alongside her.^{[5] [6]} It incorporates scenes of "John Wick-style gun fu", which Key Glock learned from a stunt coordinator for the film,^[7] as well as flashy cars and lavish settings. After winning a game of poker with a straight flush, Glock engages in a fistfight in the back of a kitchen. He and Lapri kill the security through martial arts. As the building blows up behind them, the duo begins their crime spree across Miami, which involves them disguising their identities, robbing a convenience store and bank, stealing a car, a highway police chase and resulting shootout. When the police close in on them, Key Glock carries out an unexpected escape plan.
