Expanding on the dense production style of Dreamer's first album, Documented Progression, Time Again incorporates orchestral and progressive rock influences, unconventional samples, and dramatic melodies in its sound. Dreamer' braggadocio lyrics exhibit themes of opulence, fame, materialism, power, and the burdens of success, as well as political and socioeconomic context. Music writers interpreted the subject matter to concern the rappers' plight as African Americans struggling with financial success in America.
