Musically the album integrates scratching and hip-hop vocal delivery with their brand of ska.[1] The songwriting was handled primarily by Morginsky and Terusa,[3] and was considered more advanced than on previous albums.[2] Themes range from apologetics to doubting God, but still contain elements of praise and worship and pop culture.[2]
