Some songs come from missing someone.
Some songs come from heartbreak.
And then there are songs like “Like Hell You Won’t” — the ones that come from anger. Not messy anger. Not anger that destroys everything. The kind of anger that finally wakes you up.
This song came from that feeling of being pushed too far and realizing, no, I’m not doing this anymore.
The whole song started with the line:
“Like hell you won’t push me down.”
And once I had that, I knew exactly what the song was supposed to be.
It wasn’t supposed to be soft. It wasn’t supposed to be pretty. It wasn’t supposed to explain everything nicely so someone else could understand it. This song was me standing my ground and saying, you don’t get to control me. You don’t get to break me. You don’t get to decide who I become.
The opening line says it all:
“I saw the lies in your eyes,
Thought you’d fool me one more time.”
That line came from the moment where the truth finally becomes impossible to ignore. When you stop making excuses for someone. When you stop pretending you don’t see what they’re doing. When you realize they thought they could keep playing the same game, but you’re not the same person anymore.
That’s where this song lives.
It’s not just about being hurt. It’s about being done.
“This chapter’s closed, I won’t pretend.”
That line matters to me because sometimes walking away doesn’t happen all at once. Sometimes it happens inside you first. You stop bending. You stop explaining. You stop waiting for someone to change. And suddenly, something in you is stronger than the thing that used to keep you stuck.
I wanted it to feel defiant. Like someone trying to drag me down, and me finally looking back and saying, try it.
Because I’ve had moments where I felt like I had to take things quietly. Moments where I kept my feelings down, kept moving, kept trying to be the bigger person. But this song wasn’t written from that place.
This one was written from the part of me that had enough.
The line:
“Can’t touch the fire that fuels my dreams”
is probably one of the biggest parts of the song for me. Because no matter what someone says, no matter how they act, no matter how hard they try to make you feel small — they don’t get access to that part of you.
For me, that fire is music.
It’s the writing. It’s the late nights. It’s turning everything I feel into something real. It’s taking the anger, the hurt, the frustration, and turning it into a song that doesn’t back down.
By the bridge, the song fully becomes a breaking point:
“Burn the bridges, watch them fall,
I see the truth behind it all.”
That’s not about being cruel. It’s about finally seeing clearly. It’s about knowing some bridges only kept you tied to versions of yourself you were never meant to stay in.
And by the final chorus, “Like Hell You Won’t” isn’t just anger anymore.
It’s power.
“You can rage, you can try,
But like hell you won’t
See me comply.”
That line is the heart of the song.
Because this song isn’t me asking to be understood.
It’s me refusing to be controlled.
“Like Hell You Won’t” is the sound of finally standing up, finally breaking free, and finally realizing that the fire in me was never something anyone else got to take.
All in all - this song is really one of my favorites to play because it has a bite - it has danger - and it has an edge. I really loved how this song turned out. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I did seeing it all come together.
