Songfacts®:

  • This is Skylar Grey's favorite song on Natural Causes. She explained to HipHopDX.com: "It combines my favorite elements of my favorite artists and puts it all into one. My favorite artists are Bon Iver, Kendrick Lamar, Radiohead and the song has that Bon Iver style vocal layering and harmonic structure but then a hip hop beat is underneath it, and I'm also rapping on it a little bit, so it's kind of a cool genre-blending song but all my favorite aspects of these genres."
