Hailee wrote the song with composer and co-writer Sarah Aarons, and Ludwig Göransson.
“We were all so tuned into the vision, and because I was both inside the story as an actor, and helping shape it through music, it created this really fluid creative loop,” Hailee told Billboard.
“Blending music and acting like this feels like the fullest expression of who I am,” she added. “It’s rare to have a project that lets you show up completely — and Sinners gave me that.”
“Lyrically, I wanted to tap into Mary’s deep desire to be with Stack and (maybe selfishly) not always acknowledging what a dangerous position that puts them in,” Hailee added of the song and her character. “That sort of unrequited love. There’s a vulnerability in these characters that I really connected with, and I wanted my voice to reflect that.”
Hailee also shared with Billboard that two years away from music was “the exact amount of time I needed – to grow, live a little, and step back to reconnect with why I make music in the first place. I didn’t want to come back just to fill space. I wanted it to mean something.”
“There was something so raw and emotional about Sinners that pushed me creatively and personally,” she said. “The music became an extension of that. It felt honest and it felt like me again. I wouldn’t call this a comeback — it’s about returning to the truth, and I’m so grateful to Ryan [Coogler] and Sinners for giving me the opportunity to do that.”
