When you wake up It's not the first thing that you wanna know Can you still count All of the reasons that you're not alone? When you wake up It's not the first thing that you wanna know Can you still count All of the reasons that you're not alone? No one wants to be the odd one out at times No one wants to be the negro swan Can you break sometimes? Can you break sometimes?

(Sometimes) Can you break sometimes? No one, no one Can she break sometimes? No one, no one Can you break sometimes? No one, no one Can she break sometimes? No one, no, no one Can you break sometimes? Can you break sometimes? Can you break sometimes? Can you break sometimes?

A canção serviu como primeiro single do sexto álbum de estúdio do Blood Orange, "Negro Swan", sendo lançada em 26 de julho de 2018.
A faixa havia sido tocada ao vivo anteriormente, quando Dev Hynes abriu o show Cosmic Journey de Solange no Hollywood Bowl em 24 de setembro de 2017.
O uso proeminente de guitarra na música foi possível porque Dev Hynes finalmente recebeu um instrumento personalizado feito pela Fender, após anos sem ter uma guitarra própria.
Dev Hynes aplicou dois efeitos de vinil diferentes na guitarra para distorcer o som em velocidades variadas, leaving o instrumento completamente desafinado durante toda a música.
Apesar da guitarra estar sintonizada de forma deliberadamente errada, a linha de baixo foi integrada para manter a coerência rítmica e harmônica da faixa.
O artista escolheu uma abordagem vocal mais alegre e festiva para a canção como uma celebração clara da pele negra.
