The opening track and lead single off of slippery slope is “the top.” It’s the beginning of the mountain climbing journey that is documented on the EP, wanting to get to the top. It was released on Thanksgiving 2021, or November 25, 2021, three months before the EP’s release date.
[Intro, Spoken]
To quote the wise VWM,
"You thought you ate that"
[Verse 1]
It's a slippery slope, my guy
But we have to climb, even if we die
We must conquer all
And even if we fall
[Pre-Chorus]
We climb, we climb
And we climb, we climb
And, in time
[Chorus]
We'll reach the top (Someday)
We'll reach our final stop (Some way)
We'll do the best
To beat the rest
[Verse 2]
With that said
I'd like it if we weren't dead
Color-changing mood, I can't end it
If we get the gold, you best not spend it
[Pre-Chorus]
And so, we'll climb, we'll climb
And we'll climb, climb, climb
And, in time
[Chorus]
We'll reach the top (Someday)
We'll reach our final stop (Some way)
We'll do the best
To beat the rest (Been better than the rest)
