  "That's the one that lights me up," Williams enthused to Deadline. "It's about the necessity of reminding ourselves that everything's going to be OK. But it also parallels the early '60s with what women are going through to today.

  "No matter what is going on in your environment, you know that if you pull all the way out to the Moon's view of Earth, you'll realize, 'OK, that's where I am right now, but look at how far we've come, and look at where I'm headed," he continued. "This is just today, but I see a victory.' That's what that song is about."
