Funkadelic - Eulogy & Light

I DO NOT OWN THE RIGHTS TO THIS SONG IN ANY WAY!!!
THIS IS MERELY A SHORT FILM FOR ENTERTAINMENT & ARTISTIC PURPOSES!!!!

THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL VIDEO!!!!

"Eulogy & Light" is the strange ending to the experience " Free Your Mind and Your Ass Will Follow (1971)" with a rap over a 1969 Funkadelic tune, "Open Our Eyes", played backwards. The result is a frightening song, especially matched with the menacing vocal. Heavy acid music indeed. The words are sometimes used in concert as an intro to "Maggot Brain."

Artist: Funkadelic
Song: Eulogy & Light
Album: Free Your Mind and Your Ass Will Follow (1971)
Label: Westbound Records
Director: Da Grym Reefer

Funkadelic: Euglogy & Light

Our father
Which art on Wall Street
Honored be thy buck
Thy kingdom came
This be thy year
From sea to shining sea
Thou givest me false pride
Funked down by the riverside
From every head and ass, may dollars flow
Give us this pay
Our daily bread
Forgive us our goofs
As we rob from each other
He maketh me to sell dope to small children
For thou art evil
And we adore thee
Thy destruction and thy power
They comfort me
My Cadillac and my pinky ring
They restoreth me in thee
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of poverty
I must feel their envy
For I am loaded, high and all those other goodies
That go along with the good god big buck
Two young whores
in monk robes there
Ahead in time, the unexpected soul-searching beam of the strobe
But now, the stairway looms
And as I rise
The cries of kittens, gray, make way
For there, now near
Here now, gone, alone
I feel my wrist, it flicks the switch
No lights reveal the room or me
She sees, then panics, grabs a light
I scream, silent comforts that are not heard
I panic, for I have not said a word
Hysteria hold the room in sway
I run, I back away, to hide
From what?
From fear?
The truth, the light?
Is truth the light?

@MellyOmatic Good guess but, it's actually Funkadelic's version of "Open Our Eyes" played backwards

george was a fool for this reciting the lord's prayer and 23rd psalm while backmasking a gospel tune who else had the nerve for that. gangster rappers took serious notes.

[DaGrymReefer]

@sin6975 He was tripping on LSD

@GrumpyPancake P-FUNK 4EVER!!!!!

[GantzIsSloppy]

unlike "free your mind" where the song takes you to the edge of panic & back, THIS song takes you to the edge of panic & drops you off!
