The song features "urgenttrapdrums ", an" unsettling two-note piano riff "and orchestral elements.[1]Alphonse Pierre ofPitchforkdescribed the beat as "arguably the most cinematic" one that Metro has ever produced.[2]In a review ofSavage Mode IIonHipHopDX,Mark Elibert wrote that 21 Savage's lyrics throughout the album are "more polished and lively" than before, citing the following lines from "Glock in My Lap": "Leave an opp cold, like December /.45 on me, it's aKimber/ AK knockin' down trees, like timber / Get your baby mama 'fore we bend her / Hit the windshield, not the fender / Givin' out smoke my agenda / Throw the white flag, they surrender ".[3]

The official music video was released on February 24, 2021. Directed by Andrew Donoho, the video begins with 21 Savage and Metro Boomin driving one night and seeing a chainsaw wielder resemblingLeatherfacefromThe Texas Chainsaw Massacre,which leads to a car crash.[4]The two exit their car in the midst of thick smoke and beaming red lights, and venture into a nearby "shadowy abandoned town" to look for help and hunt down the chainsaw wielder.[4][5][6]They are joined by Honorable C.N.O.T.E. Soon, the three are confronted by the Leatherface-like character, who is eventually shot down by Metro and C.N.O.T.E.[7]
