The lyrics masterfully weave together themes of betrayal and justice, with lines like, "You can run fast, but my bullet is quicker," adding a sharp edge to the song’s message. There’s a darkness in Moss’s words, but it’s not without a sense of liberation—one that many listeners will find relatable and empowering.
