The collab follows Foggieraw's single "Destiny," which he unveiled in January of this year. As for Lennox, the new single isn't her only exciting recent collaboration.

Quotable Lyrics:

Baby be a beacon of beauty via BBL
Concentrated counting all my commas, got a CDL
Consummated all the coochie comin' 'cause my CD sell
Decimated every damn Daniel wishing death prevail
Everyone, everywhere, every time, Ecclesiastes
F*ck the foes, free my friends, fight for the fellowship
