@m3t4, It sounds like the bass is disrupting the natural balance of the song with the kick build-up. Make sure to always watch your levels and EQ accordingly.

Also add some sidechaining like crazy. I'm not one to sidechain often since I'm more experimenting with the engineering side of production rather than the production side of production, but even I know sidechaining is key to create amazing tracks. Your piano also sounds like it could use a lot of reverb and some delay.
I highly recommend getting FL Studio 11. And if for some reason you don't like FL anymore, head straight to Ableton Live 9. Don't even look at Pro Tools.

@YoshL, the ending doesn't seem too abrupt to me. It sounds pretty damn nice.

@Ohaider. How do you usually sidechain? I end up placing a peak controller on the kick or whatever usually goes every quarter bar anyway. (Or end up making another kick but mute it.) Then add a Balance or on say the saw bass or noise then link the volume to the peak+lfo. Is there a different way that isn't using Gross Beat. Cause literally, that thing IS gross.
