In the single, she talks about relying on substances again because she feels lonely. She also apologizes to her parents, “Momma I’m so sorry I’m not sober anymore / And Daddy please forgive me for the drinks spilled on the floor.” Demi also addressed her fans, “I’m sorry for the fans I lost, who watched me fall again / I wanna be a role model, but I’m only human.”
After opening up in her new song, netizens showed their love and support.
We all fall off the wagon. But if you jump up real quick and run as fast as you can, you can catch right up to it and Get. Back. On. God bless and be well. Xo
