This song was written in response to the acts of terrorism done by Azerbaijan with the help of Turkey towards the people of Armenia and Artsakh, also known as Nagorno-Karabakh. Serj Tankian states on his Instagram,

We as System Of A Down have just released new music for the first time in 15 years. The time to do this is now, as together, the four of us have something extremely important to say as a unified voice […] The current corrupt regimes of Aliyev (President of Azerbaijan) in Azerbaijan and Erdogan (President of Turkey) in Turkey not only want to claim Artsakh and Armenia as their own, but are committing genocidal acts with impunity on humanity and wildlife to achieve their mission. They are banking on the world being too distracted with COVID, elections and civil unrest to call out their atrocities.

This song was written along with another called “Protect the Land” as songs to bring attention to the genocide happening in Artsakh.
