"'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.

Background



During a May 2004 interview with KNAC.com, Brent Smith explained the song's meaning:

Its about having an unattainable dream that maybe the people around you are telling you that you cant accomplish and youre never going to succeed at it, and maybe theyre being that way towards you because they didnt go after THEIR dreams. And Fly from the Inside is just a metaphor about believing in yourself and going after anything that seems unattainable. You have to at least try for it...because youll be kicking yourself in the ass if you dont!


"Fly from the Inside" had no official video, but on the re-release of 'Leave a Whisper' they had a bonus video with bonus footage.

"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'.
