You stand proud, ruler of your domain. Everyone fears you, you're the king. And tonight you hunt.

The beatboxing is the crocodile, and sometimes he comes out of the water to get you with his nasty bite. Rawr xD

I started with a piano progression in a 3/4 style, that was eventually moved to a EP like synth. It was quite happy to begin with, and i didn't feel like making it more darker, as i felt it sort of fit the theme. I built this up using strings and guitar loops, until it sounded pretty chill. I then had a wild idea to add Elton John's vocals in there, and the results is far from terrible, it was actually pretty awesome lol. The rest of the track incorporated some random samples i had floating around, as well as a 3/4 breakbeat playing in a soft swiftly motion. I like the simplicity despite there being a lot of sounds going on. Enjoy!

I chase my dreams

I try to fly

But when I lose air

I'm drowning

The swamp traps me

They grip me near

Crocodile jaws

Clamp on my wishes

Pulling me down

I just can't do it 

I don't know how I'm supposed to fly

Trapped the murky swamp land

I don't know how I can break out

When the crocodile's got you

I guess I need to shake it off

But how can I do that?

The pain is real but yet it's not

Will I move on now?

Maracas
