This raw, yet upbeat country-pop song serves as the second single for Noah’s debut album “The Hardest Part”. It talks about a toxic relationship she was in with rapper Smokepurpp, and examines the complicated journey of drug addiction while being in love.
[Verse 1]
You are overly sensitive so I won't say much
But my heart gets pulled into pieces whenever you're poured up
[Pre-Chorus]
You are malevolent and benevolent
You are the devil that I revel in
[Chorus]
I barely recognize you when you wake up in the morning
Must be someone else's eyes that I look into every night
You're only kind when you'rе all fucked up
You're only mine till your high is gonе
But I wish you'd still love me when your drugs wear off in the morning
[Verse 2]
I come second to every Percocet that you take (And I know)
You want someone who worship the worst of your mistakes
[Pre-Chorus]
But you are malevolent and benevolent
You owe me nothing and everything
[Chorus]
I barely recognize you when you wake up in the morning
Must be someone else's eyes that I look into every night
You're only kind when you're all fucked up
You're only mine till your high is gone
But I wish you'd still love me when your drugs wear off in the morning
[Bridge]
You, you (I wish that you was kind)
You, you (I wish that you was kind)
You (You are, you are), you (You are, I wish that you was kind)
You (You are, you are), you
[Chorus]
I barely recognize you when you wake up in the morning
Must be someone else's eyes that I look into every night
You're only kind when you're all fucked up
You're only mine till you're high is gone, so
Maybe I should leave before your drugs wear off in the morning

The song is written about my personal experience with the confusion and insecurities that arise in a relationship when substance abuse is involved. It causes such manic behavioral changes that you can lose sight of yourself and who you fell in love with.

I wrote ‘Mr. Percocet’ about the emotional and drastic mood changes, the swings and shifts of the withdrawal of Percocet when somebody’s using them frequently. You’re a bit irritable. I felt it affected the person I was in a relationship with—I never knew what I was going to get with them. ‘Do you s...
