Composition and lyrics


"Die Hard" is a R&B and pop song that contains a "sweet" post-chorus that is sung by Amanda Reifer.[1] The song includes a "floating R&B instrumental and tender introspection".[2] Lamar lightly raps: "I got some regrets".[3] It has a "gentle flute line and a blissful melody", which sees Blxst gently sing on the chorus: "I hope I'm not too late to set my demons straight".[4] In the two verses of the song, Kendrick Lamar uses two different moods as the song is really about how it is never too late to turn wrongs into rights and chasing dreams, with a summertime vibe to it.[5]
