Synopsis
The video for the track was recorded while Gorillaz' virtual members were in quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic and features their likenesses, which are noticeably scarred and bruised, as well as footage of Octavian performing the track set against footage of moving roads and tunnels. The video ends with a quote from playwright James Baldwin:

"Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced. It is certain, in any case, that ignorance, allied with power, is the most ferocious enemy justice can have."
