“Chasing_(Demo)” is NF’s first song of 2020, following his December 2019 single “PAID MY DUES.” On the track, NF wants to escape his pain and struggling within relationships. He adds vocals of fan and singer Mikayla Sippel, which marks the first collaboration between the two. Her vocals were taken from a cover video of the snippet she posted on October 4, 2020.

The track is comprised of two snippets NF posted on social media over the past year. The first was thought to be titled “Bad Person,” as the nine-second snippet features vocals from the verse. The second was thought to be called “Run Away,” as it sampled the chorus. It also very similarly resembles “Trauma,” the final track on NF’s July 2019 album The Search.
