Born Roza Kostandyan in Vanadzor, Armenia, Rosa Linn released her debut single in America, "King," in collaboration with US singer Kiiara in September 2021. The following year, Public Television of Armenia (AMPTV) chose Linn to represent Armenia for the Eurovision Song Contest. "Snap" is the song she sang. Linn placed 20th out of the 25 participating countries in the Eurovision Final, scoring 61 points. But following the contest, "Snap" went viral on TikTok and the single charted throughout Europe. In this song, Linn reflects on how she can't get over her ex. She's reached a snapping point and, feeling like there's no way out, starts questioning everything, including herself. Though her entire world is crumbling down around her, others are unsympathetic, telling Linn she'll get over it. Writing "Snap" was a form of therapy for Linn. What I realized was that I had the strength to shape my reality," she said. "It just took getting out of my own way and finding inner-peace. It's all about self-love and accepting that you are enough." Rosa Linn wrote "Snap" with Larzz Principato, Jeremy Dusoulet, Allie Crystal, Tamar Kaprelian and Courtney Harrell. Tamar Kaprelian is an Armenian-American singer-songwriter who represented Armenia in Eurovision Song Contest 2015. Boston-born R&B songwriter Courtney Harrell has also penned tunes for Kelly Rowland ("Gone," "You Changed") and Ariana Grande ("Better Left Unsaid"). Larzz Principato also co-produced the track. He's worked with Dua Lipa ("IDGAF") and Halsey ("New Americana"). Linn wrote "Snap" when she was on an emotional roller coaster. "I was heartbroken, confused, scared," she told Apple Music. "I was living in a tiny town in Armenia; it affected my mental health and I was at a total snapping point - something I think we can all relate to."

It's 4AM
I can't turn my head off
Wishin' these memories would fade
They never do

Turns out people lie
They say, "Just snap your fingers"
As if it was really that easy for me to get over you
I just need time

Snapping one, two
Where are you?
You're still in my heart
Snapping three, four
Don't need you here anymore
Get out of my heart

'Cause I might snap
I'm writing a song
Said this is the last one
How many last songs are left?
I'm losing count

Since June 22nd
My heart's been on fire
I've been spending my nights in the ring
Tryna put it out

So I'm snapping one, two
Where are you?
You're still in my heart
Snapping three, four
Don't need you here anymore
Get out of my heart
'Cause I might snap

Oh
'Cause I might snap
Oh

And if one more person says, "You should get over it"
Oh, I might stop talking to people before I snap, snap, snap
Oh, I might stop talking to people before I snap

Snapping one, two
Where are you? (Where are you?)
You're still in my heart (still in my heart)
Snapping three, four
Don't need you here anymore (need you here anymore)
Get out of my heart
'Cause I might snap (oh)

'Cause I might snap (oh)
Get out of my heart (oh)
'Cause I might snap
Oh (get out of my heart, get out of my)
'Cause I might snap
