California native Brett Young‘s “Mercy” was written by the star and Sean McConnell. The song is featured on Young’s eponymous 2017 debut studio album and served as the album’s fourth single.
“‘Mercy’ is one of my favorite songs on the record, so it’s been really cool to see it come to life,” Brett told Nash Country Daily. “My buddy Seth has always had such a creative and artistic brain — I got chills, when I read his idea for this video for the first time. I’m really excited to share this one with fans.”
The music video was filmed in Encino, California, as well as White Sands National Monument in New Mexico. Check out the visual below…
“Mercy” Lyrics
Mercy
Why you gotta show up lookin’ so good just to hurt me?
Why you wanna stop this whole damn world from turning?
Mercy
Why you hanging on so tight if this ain’t working?
Why you wanna stop this flame if it’s still burning?
Cause it’s still burning
So if you’re gonna break my heart, just break it
And if you’re gonna take your shot, then make it
But make this fast
If you ever loved me
Have mercy
If you go out tonight and get drunk and lonely
Wind up home alone please don’t call me
And say you miss me, no
So if you’re gonna break my heart, just break it
And if you’re gonna take your shot, then take it
Take it
If you made up your mind, then make it
But make this fast
If you ever loved me
Have mercy
Woah
Oh have mercy
If you’re gonna break my heart, just break it
If you’re gonna take your shot, then take it
Take it
If you made up your mind, then make it
But make this fast
If you ever loved me
Mmmh if you ever loved me
Have mercy
Oh have mercy
Oh have mercy
Have mercy
