7 Years
7 Years of Funk: Rediscovering Life's Rhythm
Lyrics
It's been 7 years
Reflecting on a 7-year period
And I know that it feels it's been way too long
Perception of time feeling extended
But now that I got myself back on the run
Overcoming challenges and being on the move
Everybody else knows how we got this going on
Shared awareness of their situation
Two times, three times
Repetition emphasizing insignificance of details
It doesn't matter how or why
Indifference to the reasons or causes
I'm just here to remind
Asserting the presence and purpose
Cos we got this style and you can't deny
Pride in their unique style
That we're bringing back the funk
Bringing back a distinctive musical genre
So, we bring it all down with the sound
Expressing their impact through sound
Cos your never gunna find another man
Claiming uniqueness in a relationship
Who gunna bring ya down to ya knees
Having a profound effect on someone
While you plead, for the right to breathe
Struggling for fundamental rights
While your begging me to keep the peace
Being urged to maintain peace
I'm holding, holding up high
Confidently holding a position
That's where my heads at
Personal mindset or attitude
I want the whole world to join me
Wishing for collective participation
Put your hands in the air, say what!
Encouraging engagement and enthusiasm
We got the funk
Emphasizing their musical genre
We bring it all back Til we got some more
Continuing their unique style
And it's all just history
Reflecting on the past
It doesn't matter that it meant this to me
Downplaying the significance of past events
I never thought you would be missing me
Surprised by someone missing them
But now I got a point to prove, see
Having a point to prove
And this is where I'm meant to be
Feeling in the right place
And this time, your gunna see why we had to fly by
Highlighting the speed of progress
Coming to the day that I strive to relight this fire and desire
Aspiring to reignite passion and ambition
So, we bring it all down with the sound
Reiterating the impact through sound
Cos your never gunna find another man
Reinforcing uniqueness in relationships
Who gunna bring ya down to ya knees
Repeating the impact on someone
While you plead, for the right to breathe
Advocating for fundamental rights
While your begging me to keep the peace
Being urged to maintain peace
I'm holding, still holding high
Confidently holding a position
That's where my heads at
Personal mindset or attitude
And you shouldn't have said that
Reacting to a statement
Cos you can't understand So, you know when we bring back the funk
Challenging understanding
We got the funk
Emphasizing their musical genre
We bring it all back Til we got some more
Continuing their unique style
And it all came down to this
Summarizing past experiences
Never thought it was me that you would miss
Surprised by being missed
But so you did, and now I'm here Just to make sure we get this message clear
Clarifying intentions
And it all comes to an end
Acknowledging an end
And it's been fun my friends
Expressing gratitude for the journey
But now the truth is told
Revealing the truth
So please behold
Inviting attention to a revelation
As we brought back the funk!
Celebrating the revival of a musical genre
