"Slip Away" features three talented young performers from Richmond Christian School, Caleb Lam aka Clammer the Kid, Edrysee and Megan Burton. It is a song dedicated to all the young people who want to follow their dreams but feel lost in the ocean of temptation.

Lyrics:

The curtains dropped, the crowd is gone.
In a room full of people with a sense you don't belong.
You had a lot of talent, you had a lot of dreams,
but then you gave it all up, fell apart at the seams.
Blinded by temptations, misguided by frustrations,
dreams took so long, you became so impatient.
Impossible is nothing, but for you it seemed impossible.
What you had desired now, opposite of invaluable.

CHORUS
Do you remember all the possibilities
that your dreams could be a reality
But time is always, such an earnest labourer
Now you can't get back all the moments that slipped away.

In a world of entertainment, and foolish fantasies.
It's easy to lose sight of what you once used to believe.
An ipod, new clothing, a car on tv,
a dream was straight focused now I cannot see.
Misguided by suburban ways of living we grew used to.
When pursuing a dream gets hard
we turn and go on youtube.
Too many things to turn to, if things ever do fall through,
but dreams fail, we don't care,
those things we won't go pursue.

CHORUS
Do you remember all the possibilities
that your dreams could be a reality
But time is always, such an earnest labourer
No, you won't get back all the moments that slipped away.

Looking back at yourself in about 20 years,
inner demons took control and feasted off your fears.
Now you're on your grind through the week in the cubical,
Struggling to make ends meet
when you could have been so musical.
Jade tinted glasses and brain washed in headphones,
diluted your passion, now you realized you're wrong.
Too late to change facts as your yearn for something new,
that one standing on stage with the mic could have been you.

CHORUS
Learn to be quiet, in the clatter and the noise
Never let the world, try and steal your joy
Remember time is, just an earnest labourer
And you won't get back what has slipped away.

Do you remember all the possibilities
that your dreams would be a reality
But time is always, such an earnest labourer
And you won't get back all the moments that slip away.
