Kalush shares: “Our mission is to let as many people as possible know about this war and the courage of the Ukrainian people. Therefore, we decided to shoot a video for this song so that people could hear and see everything that we want to convey to the world with this new work.” Adding “They say that I must learn to kill before I can feel safe, but I’d rather kill myself than turn into their slave.” – reflects the feelings of Ukrainians during the long war in their country.”
