Come Around (Papa Roach song)

The song was released as the third single from the band's eleventh studio album, Who Do You Trust?. A music video was released for the single in September 2019.[1] Lyrically, frontman Jacoby Shaddix states that the song is about sticking with friends and loved ones during hard times in their lives.[2] The song was written around mental health awareness, with Shaddix elaborating that it was also about the power of music to connect with people to overcome adversity.[3] Shaddix stated that the song was about himself to a certain capacity as well, in his feeling that music helps him feel connected to something "bigger than [him]self".[4] The song's music video plays into the themes as well, focusing on a fan that was affected by the band's music.[5] The video focuses around the band's long-time fan Mark Moreno, who had followed the band since their breakout in 2000, and had attended over 60 lives shows since then.[6] The band invite Moreno to a concert, thank him for his support, give him a plaque to honor his sister who had died in 2016, and awarded him two tickets for Papa Roach live shows for life.[7]

The song and music video was generally well received, with Rock Sound calling it "heartwarming" and "genuinely, genuinely great".[8] Allmusic similarly praised the track for being "heartfelt" with Shaddix's "emotive croon" standing out on the track.[9]
