On “Mountains”, Emeli Sandé sings about her parents' relationship over a Naughty Boy-produced instrumental. When speaking to the Mirror, she said:
It’s one of the first songs [Naughty Boy] and I wrote, about three years ago. It’s about my parents and their journey. My dad has always taught me that...
[Verse 1]
He said I'm going to have a bed with lots of pillows
And that we’re going to build a house with lots of windows
And when we have the kids, we’ll tell them to remind we
Of where we were now, so we never get lazy

[Chorus]
Yeah we’ll climb mountains, climb mountains together
Yeah we’ll climb mountains, climb mountains together
Yeah we’ll climb mountains, climb mountains together
Yeah we’ll climb mountains, climb mountains together
