Songfacts®:

  • This bouncy single finds Chris Brown asking a girl that has caught his eye if he can take her home for the night.

    From the moment you was dancing in the party, pushing all on me
    Giving everything, you're giving everything tonight
    And if you thought you could get away from me and get away from me
    Girl, just take your time (time, time), you're coming home with me tonight


    Breezy spends the rest of the song pursuing an answer to his question.
  • The infectious dancehall groove was supplied by:

    Christopher Dotson, whose previous credits include writing and producing Adrian Marcel's "2AM" featuring Sage The Gemini and co-writing Little Mix's hit tune "Wings." Other collaborations with Chris Brown include the singles "Grass Ain't Greener" and "Party."

    Floyd "A1" Bentley, who has helped with the productions on several hip hop cuts, including Gucci Mane's "Tone It Down" and French Montana's "No Pressure." He also collaborated on Breezy's "Party" single.

    Harare, Zimbabwe born producer Pip Kembo, who has also produced and co-written for Sean Paul ("No Lie") and Pitbull ("Hey Ma").
  • Chris Brown interpolates Kevin Lyttle's 2003 dancehall hit "Turn Me On," during the first verse, putting his own spin on the classic single. Breezy first previewed this section of the song back in 2016 while painting in his house in a now-deleted video on Instagram. Many assumed at the time that he was releasing a remix of the track.
