Songfacts®:

  • In 2012, Boyce Avenue worked on the American version of The X Factor as vocal coaches. This song derived from their experience. Fabian Manzano of Boyce Avenue explained to Artist Direct: "We met a lot of talented young artists that came out of the show. It was cool seeing their drive and passion to make it in the music industry. We finished working on that show writing songs for some of those artists. That was a song from the batch we ended up using for ourselves because it clicked for us."

    "There was something about it," he added. "Even though we had written it for another artist, we felt like it was definitely Boyce Avenue. It fit our album."
