  • Here, G-Eazy raps two verses where he addresses a love interest. The girl is unsure about him, but the rapper assures her he is sincere in his intentions and will "provide" plenty of romance.
  • Chris Brown croons the hook where he continues the plea to the girl to hook up with him. Previous collaborations between G-Eazy and Breezy include "Drifting" in 2016 and "Wobble Up" in 2019.
