Demos of the song were initially released to fans on November 22, 2020, as part of the demo compilation Alone XI: The EWBAITE Years, but were removed on the same day, likely due to both their file naming structure and the sound of the song implying that they were recorded at a later time.

Lyrics

It doesn't matter what you do with your life
I love you just the way you are
We work a lot
Build a snowman in the burning sun
Breaks your heart to see him melt
You want to help

The Kodiaks are so cruel
And the evil dreams will torment you
But you can do whatever you want to do
Made it as the president of the United States

Girl, you're gonna be a star someday
Border flying 'round in airplanes
I have to get used to you going away
'Cause girl, you're gonna be a star someday

I was just texting making sure you're okay
Dear little sister, don't be afraid
There'd be no river without the rain
Girl, you're gonna be a star someday

Oh, oh, you're gonna be a star
Oh, oh

It doesn't matter what you do with your life
I love you just the way you are
We'll work a lot
