I wrote that song as part of the \u2018Back From The Edge\u2019 album and anyone who\u2019s heard the album knows it\u2019s a sort of a redemption themed record. I was in probably the worst place I\u2019ve ever been in my personal life and in my career. I was writing music about redemption; I was trying to pull myself out of a dark place and get back to where I wanted to be.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I felt like my dreams were over and the song\u2019s for anyone who\u2019s ever felt that way, who\u2019s ever felt like they\u2019ve lost sight of their dreams or they\u2019ve lost someone or something and not to give up hope. There\u2019s always a thread of hope and I hope that\u2019s felt in the song and in the lyric and ultimately that\u2019s what it\u2019s all about.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">James Arthur has sold over 30 million records worldwide.
