Invaders are compared to a "flock of sheep" being herded by the "diligent shepherd"—the Bayraktar TB2 drone.

Commissioned by the military to help win the "information war," he wrote the song in about two hours on February 28, 2022.

The catchy, repetitive chorus ("Bayraktar, Bayraktar") was designed to be an "earworm" that could strike fear into the opposition while uniting Ukrainians.
