Although "Better Part of Me" is a celebratory song of connection, it sits within an album deeply shaped by grief—the 2021 death of Fennell's adoptive father . The song serves as a reminder of the "human-level" miracles that occur amidst life's heavier moments of loss and transition.
For Brian Fennell, collaborating with Sara Watkins (of ) was a full-circle moment:
Watkins brings a "tenderness and simplicity" to the track that matches SYML's intimate production style. Her presence is purely vocal; though known for her fiddle playing, she provides only angelic harmonies here to complement Fennell's voice.
The lyrics acknowledge that love is a "journey full of conflict and challenge" and emphasizes that honesty and vulnerability are the only ways to become better together.
