Critical reception


Carrie Horton at Taste of Country praised the song for being a "solid, if not ground-breaking" follow-up to "Later On". In particular, Horton complimented the balancing of the lyrics' mature message with the more upbeat production, writing: "The drums are heavy, the guitars are swaggering and the vocal performances from Zach and Colton Swon are layered and just edgy enough to add complexity and a bit of good fun to a somewhat serious song."[3]


Music video


The music video was directed by David Poag and premiered in February 2015.[4]
