In a statement, Bernard Yagee shared his inspiration behind the song, stating, "The world is becoming more and more chaotic, not only by the wars we're witnessing, but also by the habits we're adapting where most of our core principles and values are being diluted to an extent where they're about to cease to exist. I wrote this song for Rooted to awaken the younger generation about those values and what actually truly matters, that is family, strong bonds, and togetherness."
