I signed an offer letter i regret. the job hasn’t started yet. how do I rescind my consent? need suggestions

I am posting here because I trust this community So a few days ago I signed a contract but now I realise they will be overworking and under paying me. I am not a fresh graduate anymore, I have a year of experience but they are paying me what an intern would get. I signed the letter because I was desperate but now I realise I would rather look for another job or negotiate with them. I am going to try to negotiate but if they say no then how do I politely say I want to withdraw my signature from the offer letter? Basically I am asking for phrases or lines of conversation that are formal and professional but basically means “i am leaving unless you pay me more and give me both my weekends” (yes I am not going to get weekends) What i have in mind right…

So a few days ago I signed a contract but now I realise they will be overworking and under paying me. I am not a fresh graduate anymore, I have a year of experience but they are paying me what an intern would get. I signed the letter because I was desperate but now I realise I would rather look for another job or negotiate with them. I am going to try to negotiate but if they say no then how do I politely say I want to withdraw my signature from the offer letter?

Basically I am asking for phrases or lines of conversation that are formal and professional but basically means “i am leaving unless you pay me more and give me both my weekends” (yes I am not going to get weekends)

What i have in mind right now:

-i would love to work at your company but not when it comes as a disadvantage to me

  • what you have specified is underpaid and overworked in my books

  • I believe I am being underpaid considering my skills and job experience and I want to know if there is any scope of negotiation

  • I deeply apologise and I realise that this is unprofessional on my part, but I would like to withdraw my signature from the offer letter I signed as this position will not fulfill my needs and expectations

  • from my understanding I will be filling the role of two positions while receiving compensation for only one role. I would like to know if there is space for negotiation as I am deeply unhappy with this pay for the position I will be filling

What else do you suggest? For the record, I am a graphics and content creator for a marketing company, they made me sign the offer letter for a graphics role but later on they told me I will have to do content as well which is why I want out. I will be speaking to HR on call not email so please give me suggestions for what I should say on call

If this matters, I am in dubai with a BA degree and a year of experience. This place is offering me 4k. I think I am worth at least 6k. Please give me your suggestions on this situation thanks

Edit: I am making a change as I realise I did not voice my need correctly.

I want to negotiate with them first but they refuse then I will rescind consent. So I want ideas to know what to say to ask for a higher pay if they say no then I need to know how to tell them I will not join though I have signed the letter

Sorry for the detailed post work environments and confrontation make me anxious af and I want to be as prepared as possible thanks
