Composition.
Regarding the song, lead vocalist Jonathan Davis says; "Everyone has someone who hates on you 'cause you have something they want. It's really, like, the first empowering song I've ever written. The lyrics are: 'You can’t bring me down/I've already had my life turned upside down/I ride a downward spiral round and round/But I keep flying, I keep fighting/You won’t ever bring me down.' That's like the most positive shit I've ever written. And everyone who's heard it loves it, and I think it's going to give people who get down on people picking on them and hating them, like, 'Fuck this! I don't give a fuck what you think. I don't give a fuck what you say. You just fuckin' are a hater.' I think people will relate with that."
Music video.
The video, directed by David "Yarvo" Yarovesky, premiered on August 21 and features videos, submitted by fans, about their bullying experiences, alongside Davis trying to push through a grey veil, and pale men and women harming themselves and/or getting drenched in blood, most of the vignettes have a red and grey color scheme.
