The immersive experience continues with “Take Me Apart,” beginning with a gentle and mellow sound, gradually incorporating violin accents and a unique drum sequence, culminating in a captivating illusionary ambiance.

“On God” greets listeners with an intimate piano melody, accentuating Lang’s emotive singing, heightened by echoing tones. The godly atmosphere is further complemented by a live music video accompanying the song’s release.

“One Foot First” radiates a youthful and airy essence, buoyed by hopeful sounds and the constant presence of the guitar in the background, deftly crafting engaging narratives within the song.

The grand finale arrives with the powerful collaboration of Lang and Molly Payton in “When You Were A Child.” Their voices merge harmoniously, delivering an epic belted ballad, marking the only feature on the album and providing a perfect culmination to the themes explored throughout the entire musical journey.
