The band also recorded and released an acoustic version of the song in April 2021. Themes and compositionBoth frontman Shaun Morgan and music publications noted that the song juxtaposed dark, angry lyrics with a more upbeat sound. 'Wall of Sound' described the song as having "that raw edge of grungey rock we all kind of signify 90's rock" but with "a little bit of rock n roll groove...that kind of makes you want to rage amidst the gloom and doom in the world right now".
