Dino Intro (feat. Anis Mojgani)

Once we wanted to be

We were once young and alive

And climbed into bed as though between the sheets was a valley

Where dinosaurs still breathed

And with flashlights torched on in the dark

We would capture these triceratops and brontosauruses

From the pages between our fingers and wonder the thunder of their feet

How loud the sound of their yawp

How large the weight of their hearts

How large the thunder in ours

Dinosaur, no veggie, all carnivore

Midlife crisis, gotta fight, this is art of war

Relationship, kids gotta raise them right

Don't let the dark engulf, gotta face the light

About face, pace right then left

Slow motion over no motion, I'm blessed

I recognize the thresholds of negative stress

So I drop a few lines to get it off my chest

Off my mind and out of my system

I'm never living in the past, I'm way too persistent

Dino eggs getting cracked, I eat a T-Rex for breakfast

Hop in the Astro Van, slapping hands with J-Magic

This voyage is fantastic

Flip the script on a wack-ass actress

My whole game get galactic, it's time for some action

Amongst the lightning of these thunder lizards we ran

Our imaginings turning in awe until daylight came like an asteroid

And we were opened with a taste of reality

With the smoke that rose out of the homes and the corners

We once climbed through, the school desks upon which we once drew

The windows that sat open through which we once flew

Now fossil bones, asteroid smoke

And once dreamers of dinosaurs inside the morning's dew

Into my mind and out of my system

I'm never living in the past, I'm way too persistent

Dino eggs getting cracked, I eat a T-Rex for breakfast

Hop in the Astro Van, slapping hands With J-Magic

This voyage is fantastic

Flip the script on a wack-ass actress

My whole game get galactic, it's time for some action

Dinosaur, no veggie, all carnivore

Midlife crisis, gotta fight, this is art of war

Relationship, kids gotta raise them right

Don't let the dark engulf, gotta face the light

About face, pace right then left

Slow motion over no motion, I'm blessed

I recognize the thresholds of negative stress

So we dropped a few lines and get it off our chest
