The track begins with the lyrics, “True say, I want and I need to let go, use my time to be free.” It continues: “Ain’t no more actin’, man that forecast say I should just let me grow/No more red light for me baby, only green, I gotta go/Pack my past up in the back, oh, let me future take ahold/This is what I gotta do, can’t be regrettin when I’m old.” Another tweet points to 7’s artwork, featuring a cityscape lit up in rainbow lights that hints at the LGBTQ flag: “deadass thought I made it obvious,” it reads.
