Notes: The song builds from low, dark, intense verses with minor keys to euphoric, upbeat choruses featuring bright piano loops, kick drums, and raspy, theatrical vocals that evoke emotional ferocity and transformation. Sudden shifts in energy and production create a journey-like intensity suitable for cathartic release but potentially overstimulating.
