The track sees Drake put himself below his son, Adonis Graham, to "explain away emotional stuntedness" on the chorus, in which he sings the line: "You don't know love, you don't love me like my child".[1] He also boasts about his body count and asks a woman for her body count.[2] Drake delivers an "intriguing" vocal turn throughout the song.[3] He also raps a verse. Lil Durk received praise for rapping about his girlfriend, India Royale, in his verse, specifically promoting her cosmetics line.
