Background

edit

On June 15, 2018, Battistelli released "The Breakup Song".[7] It was co-written by MercyMe’s Bart Millard and writer/producer David Garcia, who worked with the acts such as Bebe Rexha, Florida Georgia Line, and TobyMac.[8] The song is not about the end of a relationship but breaking away from fear. Battistelli spoke on her new single to JFH News, "Fear is a universal struggle. We all deal with it in different ways, but it holds us back from truly living. I came to the point where I decided I wanted it out of my life for good. This song is my anthem, and I pray it encourages others to break up with fear too."[9] She performed the single the same day on "Today In Nashville."[10]
