The song was written a few years ago, long before the events of October 7th and without any connection to them.
While writing it, the number "7" came to me intuitively without explanation or understanding why. I felt the song was right, but I had an inexplicable understanding that the song did not belong to its time and therefore remained in a drawer and was not recorded.
In September 2025, I felt an inexplicable need to record it, and only after the recordings did I realize how accurate it was for the period and its connection to the number 7.
The song expresses a deep inner truth, a sense of desire for renewal and peace from a sober view of reality.
It carries within it a living, courageous, and true hope - one that continues to beat even in complex times and reminds us of the power to choose goodness.
