The singer spoke about the track in a recent podcast and said her last year was "tough". "I am wrestling with my darkness, but last year was pretty tough... I have not given myself permission to be angry my whole life over things where I should be angry about. What I’ve done is I pushed it down, but I should be angry. I’m allowed to be angry," she said.
"So instead of falling into’ Woe is me,’ I just was like, ‘Okay, let’s just feel the pain,’ let’s feel this pain, let’s feel this anger and let’s move on, let’s learn from it also," she added.
She has also shared a teaser of the song on her social media, which featured her wearing a black outfit and holding a baseball bat at the graffiti backdrop.
Perry had her breakthrough in 2008 with the release of her hit track "I Kissed a Girl", which topped the Billboard Hot 100.
