II: The Sword is the second chapter in a series of EPs released by Syracuse rapper, Andy Mineo. Following I: The Arrow, the project takes the second element, a sword, from his 2014 Never Land EP. A reoccurring theme for the project is the idea of a double-edged sword symbolizing duality in life and is a reference to Hebrews 4:12:
For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
