Fly from the Inside

"Fly from the Inside" is the debut single of the American rock band, Shinedown, off of the album Leave a Whisper.

The song performed fairly well on the charts, reaching number five on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, the band's first hit single, and is still a very popular song that remains in the setlist at concerts.

During a May 2004 interview with KNAC.com, Brent Smith explained the song's meaning: It’s about having an unattainable dream that maybe the people around you are telling you that you can’t accomplish and you’re never going to succeed at it, and maybe they’re being that way towards you because they didn’t go after THEIR dreams.

"Fly from the Inside" was used in a scene in the 2003 film Grind.

It also appeared on the soundtrack for the video games, MX vs. ATV Unleashed and MVP Baseball 2003.
