It’s a song that gives you a kick when you find yourself hesitating or forgetting to put in the effort in everyday life—reminding you that you can’t go on like that.
That said, it’s not a harsh, drill-sergeant kind of fight song; instead, it gently nudges you to think, “You’re right—nothing will change unless I do something,” and helps you finally get moving.
