In the album announcement, Hart commented: "More than any record I've ever made, I'm more open to being myself on these songs [...] On this record, something told me, 'Just let it be what it is.' I think I'm starting to make a little headway, getting closer to the truth. And I might not know what the truth is... but I'm OK with that."[1]

Writing for American Songwriter, Hal Horowitz called it "arguably [Hart's] most intimate and intense set yet", further commenting that "Her dynamic, classically influenced piano propels most songs including the ballads, such as the title track, that dominate this set. [...] There's no denying the truth, integrity and gritty realism that infuses everything Beth Hart touches."[3]
