Following a basic chord progression, Laroi performs the song with 'hoarse, almost grunted vocals' that are 'pushed to the upper limits of their range'. 'Without You' is an acoustic emo rap and folk-pop ballad with a rock edge. Different types of drums were tried out on the track, but the decision was eventually made to exclude them, with Laroi explaining that 'it takes away the whole feeling from it'. Production was added a week before the release of F*ck Love (Savage). The song was finished in that one night, consisting for the longest time of 'just a bounce of vocals' and one guitar. Fedi then strummed the chords that became 'Without You'. According to Laroi, he was 'going through some shit with girls', and while he and Omer Fedi were at his old house, he asked Fedi to play something on his guitar that 'Sia would sing over'. The Kid Laroi cited Sia as the inspiration for 'Without You', who he listened to a lot.
