The Artist Sam Fischer

The day I wrote this song I was having a tough time.

I had become disillutioned with my personal identity, my connection to music and with L.A. in general, as if I wanted L.A. more than L.A. wanted me.
L.A. can be really lonely place. 
When you're up you're on top of the world and when you're down it's devastatiing.
But we're all here for a reason so we don't like talking about how hard it gets because we blindly believe it'll all work out in the end.
I think "This City" can be a safe place to feel those feelings and hopefully feel less lonely.

  • At the time Fischer wrote the song, he was experiencing a deteriorating record deal as well as what he described as an "identity crises."

The Artist Sam Fischer

But my love for this kept me going and here we are! It worked out.
I had always believed I was meant to be in L.A. and that I was here for a reason but it took a really long time to feel like L.A. also believed I should be here.
The morning of the day I wrote this song, I didn't want to get out of bed, let alone write a song.
BEHIND THE LYRICS BREAK MY HEART BY DUA LIPA 
I was heartbroken with the city I thought would change my life.
I knew I was meant to be here. I was just hurt and diappointed, mostly with myself but at the time I blamed L.A Ugh.
At the time of writing I was hustling and grinding as hard as I could, going to bars and clubs and events every night to try to meet people who worked in music.
Getting little sleep and a lot of alcohol made my head hurt.
BEHIND THE LYRICS SUNDAY BEST  BY SURFACES
What I used to find so much enjoyment in was starting to feel like a job I was being forced to do.
It feels ungrateful thinking about it now but it's just how I felt in the moment.
