Background

"Dangerous" was inspired by a night he had spent in downtown Nashville, which ended with Wallen being arrested for public intoxication and disorderly conduct outside of Kid Rock's honky-tonk. He said: "I don't wanna go downtown, doing what we used to", he sings on the track. "Twist the top off another round, hell, I got enough loose screws…Think I'm gonna stay right here tonight/ Cause that could be dangerous". So he wanted to write "a warning" to himself.{{cite web|url=https://www.tennessean.com/story/entertainment/music/2021/01/05/morgan-wallen-interview-new-album-hard-lessons-and-mullet-origins/4128723001/|title=You can't stop Morgan Wallen.
