The singer shared how he came up with the song, and was looking to express his journey with it. He said originally he was writing a lot of these songs as Audio A songs with Hawk Nelson's Jon Steingard.

"I took a stab at writing a radio song, and was thinking about the common denominators people are dealing with and listening for in a song. What can people relate to?" he said to New Release Tuesday, "The basic overview of my thoughts as a follow up to Kings & Queens was to continue the story of redemption and encapsulate a little bit more of my backstory of being in a valley and going through pain. I wanted to put thoughts of going through doubts of my Christianity and why God called me to do what I do into songs, and further explain my redemption story that is lived out every day."
He continued on about his own personal journey and knowing the feelings of great success and great failure. Max specifically wanted this track to be about finding hope.

He said, "After you've gone through a period of wandering through a valley, or personal failures, or hurts, or a situation in your life where you are searching for the answer, when you find the answer it is like a lightning bolt through your head. It is like a Saul to Paul conversion. That's the basis for the song."
