The song's title comes from a line in one of the songs, "Lightning in a bottle." The song is about a group of musicians who are working on a new composition for a female artist named Tina Young. The group is excited to learn that they will be working for "a diva," but the song is really about a young woman who is trying to become the "greatest chanteuse" of her age. The song ends with the chorus, "I'm trying for others, I'm an advocate for them."
