[5] [7] He additionally highlights these problems in the chorus: "I need some good news / Sittin' here, sippin' on cold truth / Nobody knows what I'm goin' through / Bet the devil wouldn't walk in my shoes / Wish someone told me / 'Livin' this life would be lonely' / Tryna get away from the old me / Still stuck singin' these blues / All I really need is a little good news". In the second verse, Shaboozey conveys he has not been receiving love that comes his way and is sowing the seeds of negative feelings. [5]
