The track is about rising above the negative things that happen in one’s life and becoming a better person. It asks you to, “Say you’ll never give up / Then rise above it all like the pony on your shirt.” In the video for this song, he shows how he rose above his struggles by being successful. He hit rock bottom and was able to pick himself back up with the support of his family, friends, and fans.
