Haring (MonoTree), Awrii (The Hub), and ChaMane made additional contributions to composition.[5] The song is described as a rage influenced hip-hop song featuring a bold rhythmic progression layered with the gritty texture of electric guitar, creating a dynamic and energetic sound. The lyrics emphasise the desire to share genuine feelings and love rather than pursuing fame.[6]
