"So, 'What about NLE Choppa do you want the whole world to take away from this song?' And that was simply [that] I could step up to the plate and do a song on the caliber it can hit with everyone and relate with the whole world."
  
  "My verse was mainly speaking to people that are family-oriented, speaking to people that want to go through triumph, speaking to people that keep God first in their life, and just things of that nature," he added. "So, just knowing that the whole world is going to hear it, and I just wanted to speak to them."
