Being a single mom is exhausting, overwhelming, and lonely at times. You may want to read something or listen to music that mimics your emotions. I compare that music to someone patting you on the head and saying, “you poor thing.” It may make you feel good that someone can relate or empathize with you, but it does nothing to help you. As a single mom struggling, choose one of these 10 single mom fight songs to boost your energy and confidence.
Believing In Your Strength As A Single Mom
According to Psychology Today, music has the ability to evoke powerful emotional responses. As a single mom struggling, you need a fight song! Schools will play a fight song at sporting events to get the crowd pumped up and excited. What’s your fight song? The song that when you hear it pumps you up, and you feel invincible, if only for 3 minutes.
I have compiled the 10 best fight songs for single moms and created a playlist for you. These songs will pump you up, get you moving, and remind you that you are stronger than you feel now.
Fight Song by Rachel Platten
This is my fight song
Take back my life song
Prove I’m alright song
Starting right now, I’ll be strong
I’ll play my fight song
And I don’t really care if nobody else believes
“Cause I’ve still got a lot of fight left in me
Girl by Maren Morris
Girl, won’t you stop your cryin’?

Everything’s gonna be okay
Baby girl, don’t you hang your head low
Don’t you lose your halo
Everyone’s gonna be okay
