According to Ayra Starr, the song was meant to inspire Gen Z, which are her peers.
“Everything’s going to be all right. Your parents want the best for you. I understand what you’re going through,” Ayra Starr says about the song, in an interview with Apple Music.

“I wrote the song with my brother Milar (I write most of my songs with him). He came up with the melodies,” she added.
