Jay Rock broke down this track for XXL Magazine:

This is the beginning track. The concept to this song is for those out there in America that’s just grinding. That are trying to get it by any means necessary with whatever you’re doing just to get by. ‘Cause nowadays that’s what it is. It’s hard. Education is hard to get nowadays, people got to do what they got to do, especially from where I come from.

In July, Top Dawg Entertainment previewed this track in a tweet.
