Produced by London-based P2J, the song showcases Smith in a more direct and confident light, combining subtle percussion and atmospheric electronic elements with an intense vocal interpretation.

The song highlights the importance of setting boundaries, regaining control, and accepting irreversible situations.
A New Era for Jorja Smith
The music video, directed by KC Locke, a long-time collaborator of Smith’s, accompanies this proposal by depicting a night out with friends, featuring scenes of celebrations, encounters, and more introspective moments. The images balance scenes of revelry with moments of reflection, visually translating the conflict between dealing with emotions and allowing oneself to live in the present.
The production features contributions from friends, family, and collaborators of Smith’s in the UK, including names like AJ Tracey, Knucks, Novelist, and Nadia Rose, as well as collectives and figures close to the artist.
