is a cornerstone of Bishop Briggs' sonic identity, serving as a raw "love letter" to the tumultuous and often painful relationship she shares with her music. Released on April 14, 2017 , as part of her self-titled debut EP, the track is a masterclass in "dark pop," blending hip-hop-influenced basslines with soul, trap elements, and eerie, gothic-tinged lyrics. Origin and Inspiration

Known for her powerful, "skyward" vocals, Briggs recorded the track with an intensity that involved "gritting her teeth" during takes, channeling rare anger rather than her usual sadness.

When the psychic predicted Briggs' friend would quit music, and the friend admitted she was indeed considering it, Briggs was struck by a wave of realization.

The track was born from a singular, surreal moment following a visit to a psychic with a close friend.

The track utilizes a dance-like, "surging" bass, trap-influenced hi-hats, and subtle gospel background vocals.
