Was there any one moment in particular that inspired “Fight Song”?

After three months of attempting to write a “hit,” my publisher, Amanda Berman, at Sony ATV called me and asked why I hadn’t yet told my story. I didn’t want to talk about the struggle, I told her I didn’t want to go there. But I finally relented, more out of just the need to get it out. “Fight Song” was that story. The story of the many rejections I received from record labels, the countless closed doors; and despite all of it, that tiny but brave voice in my heart that wouldn’t let me give up on myself or my dream.

[expletive] off with this [expletive] song. I've reached my boiling point with it.

I thought it was BS from day one, but then i started to feel guilty because thought to myself, "maybe this courageous young woman wrote this song because she was battling cancer" or something. No this dog [expletive] song is about her battle with record companies and her struggle write a hit.

Read all about her struggle there. She wrote a goddamn cookie cutter song that's been sung a million times before her.

I barely have heard it, but I mean... you can draw inspiration on what you know. Not everyone is lucky enough to get the cancer necessary for legitimacy.
