"Fade Away" is a song by American rapper Logic. The song was released on November 5, 2015 by Visionary Music Group and Def Jam Recordings as the third single from his second studio album, The Incredible True Story.[1] The track was written and produced by Logic himself. The song samples "I'm Gone" by Logic and "Deck the Halls" performed by The Singers Unlimited.[2]
Logic said in an interview with Genius that "“Fade Away” is about accepting death and that no matter who you are, what historical figure, any of that, one day your name will be forgotten. Whether a comet hits the Earth or we all repopularize one day, you'll be forgotten. Do something for you before you fade away."[3][4]
