Background and composition
edit"High Enough" was written by K.Flay and Mike Elizondo who also produced the track. The lyrics of the song compare K.Flay's love for her lover to a drug with lines like "Don't try to give me cold water / I don't want to sober up". In a statement. K.Flay further described the background of the song:[1]
There are so many songs out there about getting fucked up. I think a part of me was asking the question: "What if I’m already high enough? What if I don’t need anything but what I’ve got?" There are many moments in my life—whether it’s because of a person or a place—that I don’t want to feel altered or high or buzzed. I just want to feel exactly what I’m feeling.
— K.Flay
Music video
editThe music video for "High Enough" premiered on May 10, 2017 and was directed by Lorraine Nicolson.[2] The video features an abusive marriage, played by Savannah Harrison and Scott Hislop, in a rundown trailer park. K.Flay, in the adjacent trailer, plays music through a cassette deck to stop their fighting. This causes both of them to start dancing. When she stops the music, they both go back to fighting as if they hadn't just danced. At the end of the video, K.Flay, visits their trailer and is shouted to leave.
