Hailing production from Arch Valenz & PHAZE, he simultaneously flexes his lyrical muscle with self-reflection and vulnerability over the melancholic beat.

"A song that I was in no shape to promote prior, but seems to resonate more lyrically with the current state we are in," he said on an Instagram post.

Quotable Lyrics
Dead inside but alive
The feelin' killin' my soul
Some demon found a good reason to make me into a home
