Composition and lyrics
On "Pelle Coat", Durk raps about and pays tribute to people close to him that have died, including his artist, King Von, and his brother, DThang: "I send money to jails, I send money for funerals / Even though they goin' to hell for all them niggas they killed / You know I'm part of my brother 'nem forever ever, ever, I'm goin' to hell". He also talks about how his fans have been telling him on social media to get revenge on the people who killed the two and praying to God to help better his situation: "Mornin' time I get on my knees, I pray to Allah / Forgive me for the shit that I did / Let me get closer to my kids / Can you protect all my friends?"
