“I started writing poverty from June 2018. I was writing it piece by piece till the title poverty came. People were complaining a lot that there was no money so I was like on the real, there is poverty. I named the song poverty.”

J Derobie highlighted on the meaning of the lyrics of the song, saying that this life is full of many misfortunes but he personally doesn’t want that for himself.

“In our lives, there are so many falls that come our way so I was like I don’t want to fall for poverty”.
