What is this functionality of emacs/Doom/evil/cider of keeping prompting "Lisp expression:" when typing in evil input mode?

I raised an issue at lispy’s repo:

Looking for instruction of escaping or aborting from the prompt of "Lisp expression:" at the minibuffer

I sometimes accidentally run into a situation when in the input mode of evil mod…e with Clojure mode, I’m kept prompted at the mini-buffer “Lisp expression:” that I don’t know what to do with it. It seemed that it was when I typed a symbol's name. I tried to enter some text, or Lisp expression, but I still get the same prompt without any helpful feedback, not able to do anything meaningful, useful. I’m using emacs/Doom, with a copied customization that I don’t fully know. It has Clojure mode, cider running at the buffer. There might be more running that I don’t know. The problem might be related to “lispy.clojure”, as I saw an error message of " Syntax error compiling at (src/yubrshen/eta_variances.clj:1:1). No such var: lispy.clojure/pp" Furthermore, when I disable the lispy feature in emacs-doom's init.el, then the problem is gone. Please advise how I deal with the situation, even a work-around is fine.
