The track sees the two singers reflecting on where their respective relationships went wrong. “Knew it was real when you blocked me, now I sit at home judgin’ my body, wondering what I did to lose you, why in the hell you ain’t choose me," Sullivan sings, with H.E.R. wondering elsewhere on the track if her straight-laced personality is to blame. "I can't do this good girl shit no more," she sings.

The song serves as the follow-up to her 2020 singles "Lost One" and "Pick Up Your Feelings," both also set to appear on the project. "The truth is, women of all ages have been called a ‘heaux’ at some point in life," Sullivan said of the album in a release. "Whether deserved or not, by some man trying to put us in our place; a place designed to keep us under control, out of the way and usually beneath them...I wrote Heaux Tales to give a voice to every woman. We’re deserving of respect whether we work as a CEO of a company or we strippin’. ”
