Background

Koe Wetzel spoke of the song:

"High Road" is a good example of how this album shows a different side of me than people might expect. Every record's almost turning a new leaf, always a left turn because of how honest I am. But this? It's what the people have been expecting from me, but we hadn't gotten there yet. It's a grown-up version of me.[1]

Composition

Much like Koe Wetzel's previous single "Sweet Dreams", the song combines R&B elements into his style of country rock. The lyrics find Wetzel dealing with a rocky relationship by calming down and using drugs, which he refers to as taking the "high road". Jessie Murph sings from the perspective of the woman in this relationship.[1]

Music video

An official music video for the song was released on June 27, 2024.[2]

Chart performance

"High Road" debuted at number 54 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart for the week dated July 27, 2024.[3]
