Wanting each song to make a positive impact on the listener's life, the mid-tempo, guitar laden “You’re Not a Fool.” addresses the issue of domestic violence, and speaks to female listeners to encourage them to get out of harmful situations. “I don’t want to do meaningless music…there is already enough of that out there." The bass heavy, club record, "What Could've Been" single, available on ITunes, reflects on a never acted upon love and speaks of the regret of keeping your feelings silent. "You don't ever wanna look back and think...'What Could've Been' or 'If only I did this different'. So when you are in that moment, take the chances".
