Rod Wave's first single since dropping his Soulfly album in March 2021 finds him updating his fans. He's been taking a break after being on the road. I just finished my tour, what a wonderful feeling I got inside my bag and got out my feelings But he's still been grinding hard. Been working like I know the drought is coming Monday to Monday, Sunday to Sunday, you know I'm street running And also enjoying the spoils of his success. Notice that both of my wrists is flooded Wave released the mellow song on November 15, 2021. The outro heavily interpolates the first verse of Plain White T's 2006 hit single "Hey There Delilah." The lyrics are identical, except Wave changes "Hey there Delilah" to "Hey there everybody." Rather than addressing a girl that's caught his attention, Wave is talking to everyone who is lonely. When they listen to him crooning this song, it's as if he's right by their side. TnTXD and Harto Beats created the piano-based instrumentation. The two producers previously collaborated on Soulfly's title track. TnTXD contributed to 11 of the 28 tracks on the deluxe edition of Soulfly, including the single "Street Runner."

(Pipe that shit up TnT)
Oh yeah, I'm watchin'
Where the fuck is Rod Wave?
Hey

Mmm
It's November, where the fuck is Rod Wave?
Young nigga way outta state
Fucked up, gettin' over pain
Look how far a nigga came (yeah)
You remember I ain't had a thing
Fucked up, walkin' through the rain
At the top of the game
Should've seen the niggas I was tryna bring
It's crazy the way these niggas change
Tell the city girl chill (you gotta chill)
You know baby mama know the deal
She know I could beat that pussy (I'm really pressure though)
Okay, let's switch the subject
Notice that both of my wrists is flooded
I been grindin' so hard, gettin' to this money
I been workin' like I know the drought is comin'
Monday to Monday, Sunday to Sunday
You know I'm street runnin', uh
Okay, my daddy was a gangster
What the fuck that made me?
Niggas claimin' that it's love, dawg, but it can't be
Know I fell in love with guns by the age of thirteen
And my pocket rocket on me, homie don't reach
Fuck dyin' in my Cuban link (yeah)
I'm livin' in my Richard Millie
I just finished my tour, what a wonderful feelin'
I got inside my bag and got out my feelings
I'm out my feelings

Hey there everybody
What's it like in your city?
I'm a thousand miles away, but look
Tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do, oh (oh, oh)
Times Square couldn't shine as bright as you (not as bright as you)
I swear, it's true (not as bright)
Look, look
Hey there everybody
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right here if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Uh, listen to my voice
It's my disguise
By your, your side
By your side
By your side, yeah, yeah
Watchin' you close
