The rapper's new single is the final offering off of Because We're Alive which arrives this Friday, Dec. 11th. Because We're Alive serves as his official follow-up to 2019's KNOWHERE that includes appearances from IDK, Faiza, and Devontée.

Quotable Lyrics
Open the door, takin' a look and I open it more
Thinkin' back to when my parents divorce
Honestly, they were preparing me for it
Felt like they both didn't care anymore
But the love that they had wasn't there anymore
I never judged, I never questioned
I know they both know they very adored
