Background and release
The song is inspired by family and in particular the themes are those of adoption and extended families.[3][1] Keys was inspired by her family composed of her husband Swizz Beatz, their two sons Egypt Daoud Dean and Genesis Ali Dean, and Beatz's son Kasseem Dean Jr from his previous marriage with Mashonda Tifrere.[6] Keys, following the controversy that arose due to the alleged dating of the singer-songwriter with Beatz,[7] dedicated the song to Tifrere, writing:[8]
«The understanding, compassion and support we’ve found is a powerful testament to the healing that comes when we choose love. Especially for the kids … the most important part of our lives. Celebrating Mashonda for our commitment to each other with support and true growth»
