Jennette McCurdy (album)

The opening track, "Generation Love", is a country pop ballad where the song's female narrator laments on the modern generation, which is seen as selfish and caught up in mainly the technological world. It is contrasted with the early generations of the Great Depression, War veterans and the post-World War II generation that performed feats such as landing on the moon. "Don't You Just Hate Those People" is a fast-paced country song where McCurdy sings in the perspective of someone who is jealous of all the couples around them, hoping they too will fall back in love soon. In the country rock song "Break Your Heart", McCurdy sings in the perspective of a girl who recently had a breakup, who says she will break her former lover's heart on the radio with the song she wrote. "Better" is a stripped-down country song about a recent breakup where McCurdy reminisces their time together by seeing his things in the corner of her room and looking at old pictures.

The fifth track, "Heart of a Child", is a ballad where McCurdy wishes she was an innocent child again, feeling time is slipping away and that she wants to take every chance given in the past. "Love is on the Way" features a prominent banjo where McCurdy assures to not give up and to trust love. The seventh track, "Stronger", is about McCurdy's mother and her battle with cancer. McCurdy reassures that her mother is not alone and that she becomes stronger with each battle. The genre-crossing song "Put Your Arms Around Someone" is an up-beat song about bringing positivity to those who need it most.

With the ninth track, "Place to Fall", McCurdy sings that she feels alone and that she needs a place to let it all out. The final track, "Have to Say Goodbye", draws influence from R&B where McCurdy sings soulfully about falling in love. The bonus track "Broken Umbrella" is told in a perspective of a female who will stay by her partner's side, regardless of the situations they face.
