Built This Rage
Female-led dance-pop with a sparse verse of muted synth plucks, subby kick, and handclaps, then a huge low-end drop where the quietest bar lands hardest: distorted 808 sub-bass, punchy four-on-the-floor kick, sidechained pads, metallic top loops, and glossy vocal layers with tight delay throws.

Lyrics
Verse 1
why are you an abuser
I loved you
you build this rage
in my chest like a fire
I kept calling it care
I kept calling it fate
Pre-Chorus
now your words
cut through the room
I can still hear them
after you leave
and I hate
what you made me hold
when I was trying
to let you in
Chorus
you built this rage
you built this rage
I gave you my soft
you gave me your cage
you built this rage
you built this rage
now I’m taking my name
out of your hands
Verse 2
blue marks on my heart
don’t heal in a day
I wore your silence
like it was my blame
you smiled so sweet
then you turned so cold
made a home in the hurt
and called it love
Pre-Chorus
now your words
cut through the room
I can still hear them
after you leave
and I hate
what you made me hold
when I was trying
to let you in
Chorus
you built this rage
you built this rage
I gave you my soft
you gave me your cage
you built this rage
you built this rage
now I’m taking my name
out of your hands
Bridge
I am not the fire
I am not your storm
I am the one
who gets to be reborn
say my name
and mean it right
I’m walking out
of your broken light
Final Chorus
you built this rage
you built this rage
I gave you my soft
you gave me your cage
you built this rage
you built this rage
now I’m taking my name
out of your hands
you built this rage
you built this rage
I won’t wear your shame
I won’t go back
