The title track "Two as One" is a medium ballad love song. The lyrics express the realistic love life of working adults and the thought that there is a place for both of them with you, the precious you, and that they can overcome any future with you, the love of their lives, next to them. The music video for "Smokin' Hot," included on the first edition B, is a summery song sung by the Kis-My-Ft2 members who greet the morning with hangovers after a crazy night.{{cite web |title=Kis-My-Ft2 premieres "Smokin' Hot" music video from the first edition B of new single "Two as One" today, July 29 at 9:00 p.m. |url=https://tower.jp/article/news/2022/07/29/tg004 |website=tower.jp |access-date=2024-07-13 |language=Japanese |date=2022-07-29}}{{cite web |title=Kis-My-Ft2 has a crazy night and plays with sound frames "Smokin' Hot" MV |url=https://natalie.mu/music/news/487413 |website=natalie |access-date=2024-07-13 |language=Japanese |date=2022-07-29}}
