During this time of the year I'm always living care free and all the other things on my mind go on hold. I always had this mindset of living out my youth while it lasts especially in the 'summa.'" [2] [3] [4] The music video premiered exclusively on Billboard on July 30. [5] The song talks about being young, as well as summer. [6]

The song appeared on the third episode of the third season of the Netflix show On My Block. [7] [8] [9]
