Evanescence frontwoman Amy Lee wrote this song to celebrate the power of speaking out in order to promote more justice in the world. Said the singer: "This is an era of awakening, and full of powerful beauty. I hope to inspire others to seek truth, find their own voices and use them as I step up to use mine. Don't let anybody speak for you. Only you can do that."
A lineup of Lee's fellow female artists lent their voices to the song's anthemic chorus, They are: Halestorm's Lzzy Hale Taylor Momsen of The Pretty Reckless Violinist and songwriter Lindsey Stirling Within Temptation singer Sharon den Adel Deena Jakoub of Veridia Evanescence guitarist Jen Majura Lee's two sisters: Carrie South and Lori Lee Bulloch Amy McLawhorn, wife of Evanescence guitarist Troy McLawhorn
Recording the song in the COVID-19 era with everybody in the studio was a no-go, so Lee set up a Zoom account. "We all live all over the place, so mostly the girls just recorded themselves, sent the audio to me and we piled it all up together," she explained to Radio.com. "Just to feel their support in a song that is different thematically for me and for us as a band. It's stepping out and up in a new way."
