On August 1, 2018, a music video for the song was released. In the video, Juice is seen taking part in a twelve-step program and performing a Serenity Prayer. While he is rapping his backstory, it's shown that he went to the program after his girlfriend overdosed. The music video cuts from Juice rapping at the program to shots and flashbacks of him and his girlfriend doing drugs and doing crime. The music video ends with Juice calling 911 and telling them that his girlfriend overdosed and died. The video fades to black and the message "RIP to too many young legends that left us early. If you or somebody you know is suffering from addiction call 1-800-662-HELP to take the first step".[4]
