Composition
In the song, Sleepy Hallow uses a melodic delivery over a beat of guitar and drums with a melancholy tone and lyrics about his loneliness and mistrust: "I just wanna slide, huh / Parties in the sky like it's 2055, huh / She said 'Boy you nice, boy you nice', huh / Heart cold like some water and some ice (Huh)". He sings about mistrust and struggles in his street life as well ("Real niggas cry blood (Blood) / Hope my kid never try drugs (Huh) / All I wanted was some love, would that trade for a gun (Huh) / Big pack on me now, remember back then I was fucked up, huh / I don't really want friends, everybody fake, I don't got trust").Music video
A music video was released alongside the single. The animated visual was directed by Ryan Dylan Selkirk (Aylo) and animation was designed by Owen Khang, Akam Hussein Rustam and Melis Sosa. It features Sleepy Hallow visiting an alternate world with a futuristic city setting. He stops at a party where he meets a bartender who’s "not exactly what she seems to be at first", and rides around the city in a "high-tech car".
