Doyle also proclaims that life is a lullaby, which encourages him to embrace his existence with the person he loves, even through their troubled times, as they’re meant to be together.

He cherishes the process of writing about the challenges that people of a generation are facing. He goes after that vision by sharing his passion for the environment, as he feels that nature is free from the human condition that afflicts humanity, and is an inspiration that can help everyone. The musician feels that if people observe nature, they can learn more about their own true deposition. His overall music serves as a vehicle to help people make sense of themselves and the world.

The group’s rhythmic instrumentation and bittersweet lyrics effectively reflect the distinctive singer’s seductive commitment to the responsibility of his belief that people should freely love and appreciation the world around them.
