"Her World or Mine" was written by Brett Beavers, Travis Denning, and Jamie Paulin. Described as a poignant ballad, the song "examines the different trajectories of lives post-breakup."{{cite web|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-country/see-michael-rays-stark-her-world-or-mine-video-627864/|title=See Michael Ray's Stark 'Her World or Mine' Video|author=Luke Levenson|date=May 8, 2018|publisher=Rolling Stone|access-date=December 18, 2019}} Michael Ray was going through a breakup when he came across the song for the first time and said the timing was perfect: "This would be a very different situation if the song found me two years ago. I believe a song always finds you at the right time. I can sing every word of that song with feeling."{{cite web|url=https://people.com/country/michael-ray-new-single-her-world-or-mine/|title=Michael Ray Speaks His Truth in New Single 'Her World or Mine': 'I Came Out on the Other Side'|author=Tricia Despres|date=May 16, 2019|publisher=People|access-date=December 18, 2019}}
