Themes

The tracks have themes of resilience, with Scott saying that he wrote "Rise" during COVID-19 lockdowns when he was "really down on [him]self",[4] as well as the power of love, with Scott explaining that "Biblical" is about "love of biblical proportions that transcends everyone and everything",[5] with "Heaven" following a similar theme of "the love between two people being so powerful that it is far superior to anything else".[2] While "If You Ever Change Your Mind" was written "about the pain of heartbreak and lost love", it also has "undertones of hopefulness throughout".[6]
