Theme and background

Unlike the first album Explore!, the contents of the lyrics are fictional stories and based stories on friends, while on Paradox almost all of the lyrics are related to her personal stories. Most of the song themes of the song and the lyrics strongly represent her feelings and personality.

All songs in Paradox were originally written by Isyana Sarasvati who recognized this album as the album that best reflects her personal life. With the help of several Swedish producers, Isyana also had the chance to write and record her songs in Sweden since February 2017.[4]

The theme of this album, namely "The Voice of Paradox" is seen in lyrics, rhythm, and paradoxical tones. Isyana interprets the paradox like human life today, where life has complicated elements, globally and locally, socially and personally. We cannot really understand what really happened. Isyana explained, she read a paradoxical life with a paradoxical personality. Introversion as well as extroversion, pop and classical, in mixed English in English that produce works that build a balance of various contradictions. Through the lyrics, this album tells a lot about emotions that represent Isyana's personal experiences and characters while she continues to answer the tastes of music lovers from various genres.
