The mid-tempo instrumental produced by Mont Jake has a blend of traditional and contemporary beat rhythm. The never-ending guitars' sounds and the contrasting elements of the local drum create a sonic illusion which seems harmonious as they complement each other. This combination adds energetic flavour and brings forth a whole Afrobeats genre revolving around a R&B theme, as Mellissa pours out her soulful vocals. The reverb-mixed male backup vocal at the chorus elevates the mood to be a groove party playlist.

She opens up and shines on this track as music is always her safe haven. Thematically, she explores self-confidence and self-awareness in this track. This is evident in the lyrics; Done done with the waiting, this world's mine for the taking. The visuals on YouTube layered the thematic foundation by depicting freedom and self-care.

Mellissa's silky single-note rhythmic undertone in the chorus illuminates the track further. Though her tonal pronunciation limits listeners' experience and distorts lyrical understanding. Gradually, she solidifies her distinct style in the music industry and "Catch Me If U Can" is a bold statement to her tenacity.
