She revealed that the song allowed her to delve into her insecurities.
"I don't think I've delved this far into my insecurities in this detail before. I struggle a lot with the idea that my life has become unmanageably sized, and not to sound too dark, I struggle with the idea of not feeling like a person," she said.

The award-winning singer ended by saying that she loves the song because of how transparent she is in the song.
