I wrote this song back in 2020 the day after a really bad car accident. It was a scary accident and it shook me up quite a bit. I tried not to drive as much as I could for a month or so afterwards. I started to take a tally of my life and evaluate it a bit more seriously. We’re all going to die one day so why not write the songs we want to write or do the things we want to do. I wanted to try something different with my music and push myself with production, songwriting and my voice. Inevitably and ironically, Hot Temperature would lay dormant on my hard drive for a few years because I was too shy to release it. The song is really just a heightened, “cool” version of myself pushing myself for improvement and leaning into the spaces that make me uncomfortable.
