Songfacts®:

• Michael Kiwanuka's debut album, Home Again, contains songs dating back a few years before the album was recorded and also more recently penned numbers. This raw acoustic tune was the last one that Kiwanuka wrote for the record. He told This is Fake DIY: "I've scrapped quite a lot of tracks and I'd never put anything I wasn't completely happy with on the album, whether it was a fresh one or a track from way back. The album is full of songs that I think fit well together and I feel like this is definitely one of those."
• Kiwanuka was already a big name in Britain when he released the Home Again album, thanks to his win in the BBC Sound Of 2012 poll. Despite the accolades, he still struggled with imposter syndrome, and he went into a funk when making his next album, Love & Hate. He turned it around when he and producer Inflo came up with the song "Black Man In A White World," which was the first single. The album was finally released in 2016 and went to #1 in his native UK.
