Well lets started out by knowing a little bit more about your fish. How long have you had it, what size is it, what size tank is it in? If it is a newer fish it could just be startled and that is why it is acting like that. I personally have a pair of Clarkiis that will LEAP out of the tank to get to the food but they are not hitting the glass. If you have other fish in the aquarium with it and they are larger or more aggressive it could be a cause/factor as well.
