Composition

"Sabotage" was written by Rexha along Jon Hume, Michael Matosic and Greg Kurstin, the last also producing the song. It has been described as a pop ballad which displays a "straight-from-the-heart" lyricism and talks about how she sabotages her best moments. Rexha herself stated that the track is the "most vulnerable" on Better Mistakes.[5]

"Sabotage" is one of the most vulnerable songs on my new album, Better Mistakes. It’s just as beautiful as it is painfully honest. I admit to getting in my own way when things are going well. I know I am not alone in experiencing self-sabotage during life’s most precious moments, and this ballad is an acknowledgment that sometimes we are our own worst enemy.

— Rexha talking about the inspiration and meaning behind the song[5]

Music video

The music video for the track was premiered the song's release date. It was directed by Christian Breslauer. The clip features Rexha in an abandoned house with meadow at her feet, slowing sinking in water and where all mirrors shatter around her. She ends up setting the whole house on fire with a match.[3]
