Kinneys lyrical honesty shines through in Fifteen Minutes, the final song off the tracklist.

Ive observed people who constantly struggle and who are addicted to ups and downs and conflict, whereas I know that I seek stability. This down-to-earth authenticity is especially emphasized through the songs simple singer-songwriter acoustic guitar.
