La canción Whataya Want from Me fue escrita por Pink, Max Martin y Shellback para el álbum Funhouse de Pink, pero no se incluyó en el álbum. Más tarde, fue dada a Adam Lambert para su álbum debut, For Your Entertainment. La letra expresa la frustración de estar bajo presión y el deseo de ser aceptado tal como uno es.
