Composition
editOver piano-laced production,[1] Rod Wave laments on having several women around him to choose, but having trust issues due to his relationships in the past.[2] Nevertheless, he indicates remaining resolute,[1] confessing, "Don't need love, I need me time" and describing himself as "young, wild, and mad broken-hearted".[2]
Music video
editDirected by Yawn Rico and shot by Eye 4, the music video begins with Rod Wave riding around in the American countryside on four-wheelers.[3] In the clip, he is seen performing across the country, in front of a private jet, getting a tattoo, and showing his new set of grills.[1][3]
