The chorus lifts you up, putting you into the precious moment of escape when you drive away and listen to music. The lyrics express that you don't always have to sit in your emotions, and that distractions can be a wonderful thing.

This expressive pop track takes you on a journey with its sound, surrounding listeners in atmospheres of thoughtfulness and excitement. Charming and entrancing, "Imposter Syndrome" uses 1960's-reminiscent blend of vocals and instrumentals. Piano and Stella's soft, throaty singing opens the tune with a gentle somber and introspective tone. Layers of vocals and jaunty piano offer an energetic sound as the chorus picks up a jazzy blend of guitar. Vocalizing high and low, this song will saturate you in a freeing feeling before sending you back into the deep tone of the verse. Expressive singing pairs beautifully with bold drums, emphasizing the power of emotion felt in the lyrics. Brass instruments and guitar add a fun roundness to the track. Emulating the highs and lows of its lyrics, the sound of the song itself allows listeners to experience distraction as the bridge and chorus excitedly triumph over the emotional energy of the verse.
