I thought it might be a termite but I didn't think they had the thin body segment?

Thin body segment makes me think some sort of wasp, like a potter wasp, mason wasp, sand wasp, or mud dauber, though it’s impossible to tell due to the quality of the picture (not enough detail) and because we have no idea where in the world you live. :)

At least knowing which continent would help a bit. Def not a termite tho.

Thank you for the reply! Sorry I didn't include any details. I'm in the US on the west coast.
