Built on "twangy, bluesy Louisiana" production,[2] the song finds Kodak Black rapping about life in the streets during his younger years and his wealthy lifestyle in the present.[3] He delivers nasally through the hook, in which he interpolates "Make No Sense": "I feel like I'm Kodak Black in 2015 / In the 'Vette with plenty killers, mixing molly with the lean / It don't make no sense, I catch a body on the scene".[2][3][4]
