I Did Something Bad
An empowering anthem where Taylor calls out everyone, primarily the media, ex lovers and various artists for their mistreatment towards her. She further compares the drama to that of the Salem Witch Trials, telling them all to light her up like a witch.

Don’t Blame Me
In this song Taylor metaphorically draws comparison to the feelings she has in a relationship to that of drug use. A deeper look into the song lyrics suggest that this is actually what the media wants us to believe about Taylor and how she acts in a relationship.

Look What You Made Me Do
A dark, vengeful, contentious song that goes into detail about the mistreatment and injustice Taylor has faced throughout her life and career - sparing nobody. The bridge samples her 2010 song Innocent (a song forgiving Kanye’s actions at the 2009 VMAs).
