About Underdog

"Underdog" is the story of how the band was an underdog for the longest time trying to break into the world of music but continuously being shut down. The song in a sense takes you through the day of an Underdog, waking up optimistic and ending the day questioning whether or not what you hoped for is really meant to be. There is also some speculation that this song puts an emphasis on some of the members Mormon roots so when he repeats “father” he’s actually crying out to God. In a sense, the song is like a prayer. .
