Critical reception
Ryan Reed of Rolling Stone described the song as "a reggae-pop groove built on booming drum fills and buzzing synths".[5] Rania Aniftos at Billboard complimented the song for being an "empowering tune about choosing not to stick around with someone who's not ready for commitment".[6] Writing for Complex, Hannah Lifshutz found that the lyrics depict "a different kind of breakup, one that allows you to walk away feeling empowered".[7]
