"Fly" is a song about overcoming obstacles and rising above criticism. In the chorus, Rihanna sings about coming to win, fight, conquer, thrive, survive, prosper and rise, all leading up to her desire to fly. Throughout the verses, Nicki Minaj reflects on her personal struggles and the criticism she has faced from both enemies and friends. She talks about trying to forgive those who have abandoned her, and chasing strangers away. Despite those challenges, she remains determined to rise to the top and refuses to be boxed in or defined by others.
