On “heart,” Tracy discusses changes he’s made in his lifestyle, specifically on giving up old toxic habits. He also mentions having great affection for someone, but questions if this person is good for him.

The song features a mellow beat that builds around a slow acoustic guitar sample. The beat is typical of the signature sound established by Tracy’s emo-rap collective GOTHBOICLIQUE.

The track was released roughly one week after the rapper’s near-fatal heart attack in July 2018. The rapper has since attributed the event to a mixture of drugs and alcohol. On the song, Tracy states he no longer drinks lean or uses Xanax recreationally anymore.

According to a FADER article, the cover art — a heart with a band-aid listening to an iPod — reflects his belief that “music is what’s gonna help me get better.”
