''D-Generation'' is a melancholic electropop anthem inspired by the (de)generation of the modern society. As Luke Black himself says in the interview for the [[Serbia]]n music portal MjuzNews, the song represents the generation D, a society within a society that does not fit in any moods. "''D-Generation'' is proud of the false image they created for themselves, the image which is forced by the rules of the new age in which they grew up. They stay true to that image religiously in order to achieve the feeling of acceptance, even though they don't believe in it."<ref>[http://www.mjuznjuz.com/domaca-scena/luke-black-intervju-povodom-sjajnog-debija-sa-pesmom-d-generation MjuzNews | Luke Black: Interview]</ref>
