In an interview with No Jumper that was uploaded just a day after this song’s release, X revealed that he still loves Geneva.
On this track, X creates the melody by sampling his own vocals singing the words: "Why am I so in love? I don’t know why"
In similar style, throughout his debut album, 17, he used instrumentals sampling Instagram singer Shiloh Dynasty’s vocals for popular songs “Jocelyn Flores”, “Carry On,” and “Everybody Dies In Their Nightmares.”
