Vanessa's statement about Die, Dinosaur - This song is about young people patiently awaiting the death of the dinosaurs in power. It's about seeing the "way of the world" as fundamentally wrong, oppressive and therefore, completely irrelevant. Young people will not participate in the societal contracts that they clearly see as wrong. The song was inspired by young leaders who are unafraid to challenge the archaic, tone deaf, sexist, and white supremacist ideology in power. This song is for the brave voices who prophesize the inevitable crumbling, falling of the white man who cannot listen, cannot change. He is the "man in the weather changing."

Lyrics:
Young courage never fades
Keeps thinking of brand new ways
Counting down the days
Until you die dino, die dino, die dino, die.
It’s the way of his world
There’s nothing you can do
Careless captain
Ignoring the moon
Man in the weather, changing

A new school is dreaming
Throwing out his rules
He clings to his weapon
But they’re not afraid to lose
Man in the weather, changing
Withering away

Young courage never fades
Keeps thinking of brand new ways
Counting down the days
Until you die dino, die dino, die dino, die.

Same old lies from the same old school
But a new design a fresh disguise...
And the war goes on…
And the war goes on…

He knows the end is near
It’s exactly what he feared
A statue in the sun
Is bound to come undone
His power slips away
Natural change
Young courage never fades
Keeps thinking of brand new ways
Strong enough to save
Not afraid to change
Counting down the days
Until you die dino, die dino, die dino, die.
