“I say I’m cool when I know I miss it/I’d trade it all for the case if I could have you back/If I could go back where we started at,” Cannon raps in the song, which some interpreted as his yearning to reunite with Carey.
The couple were married from 2008 to 2016 and are the parents to 10-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe.
Cannon explained in his show on Wednesday that the song is off of his upcoming mixed tape, in which he gets “real, raw and personal” and said while some may think he’s trying to get back together with Carey, “That’s impossible.”
“The song is really about reflection,” he said of the single which dropped on Valentine’s Day. “You realize ‘Man I really messed up.’ I had probably the greatest situation, I had my dream girl and I messed it up.”
