Whenever I'm feeling uptight
I get down Mama
And it's alright
I get up
I reach for the mic
Wanting to get so hyped
But all the cats ain't doing this right
Yeah they got all the funk without the bite
I'm bringing you the funk without the hype
And it feels so nice
I said I feel alright
Oh I feel alright
I feel alright (alright)
I feel alright (alright)
I feel alright (alright)
I feel alright (alright)
You gotta see through the hype
To see the light
Ain't no faking the funk
I hear a new fake record most everyday
They're all singing and they ain't got nothing to say
Just trying to get laid, get paid
Make radio play
(Like hey-o) Must be the money
(Hey-o) I got to keep it funky
(Hey-o) Ain't gonna sell my soul
You gotta see through the hype
To see the light
Ain't no faking the funk
