Lyrically, Rod Wave tells a story of a woman who tries to hide her feelings of pain from the end of a relationship by dressing up and going to the club: "So get your hair did, put your clothes on / Tell the DJ to play your song / Tryna fight the feeling, But she never finished healing / Now you in the middle of the club, trying not to cry to a love song".

In it, Rod Wave performs live at a nightclub,[4][5] where the woman in the story dances the night away with her friends while trying to fight her emotions, hence why it is called 'Fight the Feeling'.
