Joseph discussed "Enough to Get Away" in an interview with Newsday:[1]
The first single, "Enough to Get Away," has a sunny sound that masks a darker theme. "I think it's like an attack on the American Dream," said Arthur. "It sounds happy, but there is no 'enough to get away.' When you're writing, you never really know what you're talking about and then you interpret it later. I could never try to write something like that. It just comes out and it's like, 'Whoa, what's this?'"
