En un comunicado de prensa (de Boogie Drugstore), Malena Zavala contempla la construcción de su identidad personal a partir de sus experiencias y las culturas de los lugares en que ha vivido en vez del lugar donde nació:

The album’s conceptual heart is the warm, enveloping “Identity”, with its key line: “No place holds my heart”. It’s a song of rootlessness and yearning “that embodies the whole album. It’s about how I feel like I don’t belong to Argentina or England. I’ve just been travelling my whole life. So the whole concept is about how, wherever you go and whatever the experiences you have in the cultures you live in, they make up who you are and your character. So I had this idea of a person being about where they’ve been, not where they were born.”
