"Winning Streak" tells the story of struggle, redemption, and human connection, highlighting his talent for bringing heartfelt truths to the forefront of his music. The chorus of the song, in particular, struck a chord with fans:
“I’ve been losing myself, I’ve been losing my mind
I’ve been standing in the rain just trying to stay dry

Till I met a man who was 20 years clean
He said everybody here has felt the same defeat
Nobody walks through these doors on a winning streak”
