After Rod released Nirvana, he then deleted his Twitter and Instagram accounts.

In the song, the lyrics allude to ending his own life and battling depression.

The troubling lyrics went: “If you’re hearing this it’s too late / I’ve been writin’ this since Tuesday, today Friday that mean tomorrow’s doomsday / Tried to fight the pain but it ate me alive / Sad to say I lost a battle against my mind / You should be happy for me homie, no more sufferin’ / We all got a day I guess we’ll see each other then / I hope that heaven’s real and one day we can reunite / And don’t be crying for me I lived a wonderful life.”
