The track is built on a steady, mid-tempo acoustic groove led by a plucking banjo riff paired with a crisp, swinging percussion loop. The vocal delivery is a low, gravelly, quasi-spoken rap with a dry, comedic tone that bounces right on the beat. Rather than a standard verse-chorus arrangement, the structure feels like a recurring motif looping around the core line "I'm not afraid, maybe I should be", punctuated by eccentric observational turns and comedic detours. Visually, the video is a fast-paced montage of pop-culture video clips and GIFs—ranging from Doctor Who and Sherlock memes to anime edits, TV comedy scenes, and random dancing clips—cutting continuously in sync with the rhythm.
Around the 0:30 mark, the track pivots into a Sherlock-themed refrain with text overlays on screen, showing how tightly the editing is timed to the music's rhythmic emphasis. The instrumental beat stays remarkably consistent throughout, which keeps the energy grounded, but the vocal mix sits a bit buried under the midrange frequencies of the acoustic pluck, making some of the quicker spoken lines hard to pick out. While the meme-heavy visual presentation gives it a fun, chaotic internet-era energy, the repetitive structure of the main acoustic loop starts to feel slightly monotonous by the two-minute mark; adding a distinct breakdown or melodic shift in the second half would give the song a much stronger payoff.
