Talking about the inspiration behind the track, Nikki said, “In today’s society there is too much emphasis placed on fitting one aesthetic. Girls self-value is at an all-time low. I wrote this song to show that we see you as beautiful even though you don’t necessarily fit into the pre labelled box that society calls beauty. You matter and you are worthy of love.”
