Rapper Pitbull is using his new single to create a message of hope amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Titled I Believe That We Will Win (World Anthem), the track is about overcoming fear and coming together during these difficult times.

"You know what spreads faster than any virus is fear," he says at the beginning of the two-and-a-half minute track. "And when it comes to fear, you can either forget everything and run, or you can face everything and rise."

That's not all, Pitbull also wants his fans to film themselves dancing to the new track.

"We believe that we can overcome. We are calling all students, medical workers, first responders, parents, grandparents, everyone from all over the world to be a part of the video anthem," he wrote on Instagram.

The rapper added that the proceeds from the song will go to charities that provide COVID-19 relief.
