The song was produced by Malone himself, Andrew Watt, and Louis Bell. Malone announced the song four days before its release and also announced the album.[1] The music video was shot in Scotland when he was there to perform for his Twelve Carat Tour, which he described as "absolutely stunning".[2]
On the pop rap song, Malone sings about drinking while having late night parties and hurting the morning after.[3] [4] The song is centered around a two-chord progression and he expresses his desire to stay drunk and not want to become sober, while he also calls out fake friends who only want him for his money and expensive lifestyle.[5] Malone also feels that he does not know how to speak to anybody about what he is going through.[6]
