In "I'm Sorry This Is the Life I Gave You," Sarantos bares his soul, addressing the feelings of inadequacy and failure that haunt him. In a candid statement, Sarantos shared the inspiration behind the song:
"My therapist says I try to be everything to everybody. It's true. I do. But most of the time, I feel like I'm a failure and nothing to everybody. So I wrote this song about how I usually feel—like I haven't given the people around me and the ones I love the most everything I should have given them. And for that, I'm sorry. I made this music video as a way to apologize to everybody I've let down."
