Protest Song: A fair amount of his songs are these, an example being "Saturday", which is about calling out the poor treatment of the working class.

Bittersweet 17: The Title Track of "Seventeen Going Under" is about Sam's life when he was 17, although it focuses more on the bitter than sweet.

Take That!: He is not very fond of celebrities who are only famous for looking good and nothing else such as the Kardashians, as shown in "Mantra" and "Poundshop Kardashians". He also mentions "An orange faced baby at the wheel of the ship" in the latter.

 Sam Fender (Music) / int_dbfd6b8
comment
Lyrical Dissonance: His songs are usually about rather dark subjects yet often sound rollicking and upbeat. "Aye" is a notable example, its peppy clapping beat contrasts Sam's angry lyrics about all the terrible things that have occured throughout history to today.

You Are Number 6: A dehumanising example is used in "Seventeen Going Under" to highlight his mother's financial troubles and how the Department for Work and Pensions didn't seem to care about her.
