Background.
The song was written by Swedish Grammis-nominated songwriter Shy Martin, among others including Fredrik Borch Olse, Gunnar Greve, Magnus Bertelsen, James Daniel Njie Eriksen, Kenneth Nilsen, Marcus Arnbekk and Mengzhou Hu. It was released alongside an accompanying campaign titled "#CreateADifferentWorld", in which Walker addresses the importance of climate change. He said "I want to use my voice to raise awareness. And that's what this song is about. There is still time, together we can create a different world."

Music videos.
Lyric video.
The lyric video for the song was released on the same day as the song's release, on "30 November 2018". It was directed and edited by Alexander Zarate Frez. Simon Compagnet had produced the graphics for the video while additional footage was provided by Bradley Wickham and Bror Bror.
For most of the video, images were depicted of oceans filled with trash, air pollution, wildfires, hurricanes, and other kinds of disaster scenarios linked to climate change. For the third quarter of the video, the song takes a more wishful tone and the visuals change to vistas of nature, aiming to show what could be if people worked together to combat climate change.
