Songfacts®:

  • This is the fourth single from Canadian hard rock band Evans Blue's self-titled third album. Frontman Dan Chandler explained the song's meaning to AntiMusic: "'Say It' is a song about having someone in your life who feeds you false hope and trusting someone who seems to have good intentions, only to find out there's a hidden agenda. It's about taking back the reins and regaining control of your life. 'I was the animal'... I pulled you along, and I want you to know how that feels."
  • Chandler explained the song's music video, which was created by the band's fans: "There is empowerment in taking your life back from anyone who tries to control you, and the people in the video embrace this fearlessness. We are so lucky to have such amazing fans, and any time we can make them shine... we will!"
