Songfacts®:

  • This up tempo feel good track was produced by the legendary hip hop producer Jim Jonsin (Lil Wayne).
  • Lemar (from his website): "The song was written in Miami and is based around the idea of not being able to get over someone who has already moved on. The tone also reflects the uncertainty that people may face this year, but at the same time remembering good times and hoping for change."
