“Inside our earlier albums, the subject material, the lyrics are all very private, primarily based on our experiences—self-centered, even,” vocalist Sabrina Ellis stated in an announcement. “In making this conceptual album, we needed to discover ourselves inside, or challenge ourselves into, the principal characters. We developed them, bought to know their minds, feelings, and motivations, after which expressed these in 9 songs. The songs aren’t demonstrative as in musical theater. As a substitute, the songs are heated moments, inner expressions that stand on their very own.”
