The late Mother Love Bone lead singer Andrew Wood, who passed away in 1990 from a heroin overdose, is mentioned in the song, which was penned by Jerry Cantrell who said about the song: "I was thinking a lot about Andrew Wood at the time. We always had a great time when we did hang out, much like Chris Cornell and I do. There was never really a serious moment or conversation, it was all fun. Andy was a hilarious guy, full of life and it was really sad to lose him. But I always hate people who judge the decisions others make. So it was also directed towards people who pass judgments"
