‘Funky’ is the second single on the D.I.L.Y.D EP. The song is very upbeat and ‘dancey’ but presents the theme of longing for someone/something. This was one of the first ever songs the group wrote yet still fits perfectly alongside other tracks on the EP like Do It Like You Do.
[Verse 1]
I'm not tired, I'm just scared of home
I'm not hiding, I just fear to roam
And I know that I slip under your soul
You're the only one who knows that I need to go
Hear the sound of my nasally tone
I'm stepping out of the danger zone
And I know that I slip under your soul
You're the only one who knows that I need to go
[Chorus]
And I know that you want me
Oh, I flow with your heartbeat
I'm not coming till you open up the rope
And things don't always turn out the way you know
[Verse 2]
Throw a hand, help me hold onto
What we have, it's best lest to prove
And I know that I slip under your soul
You're the only one who knows that I need to go
[Chorus]
And I know that you want me
Oh, I flow with your heartbeat
I'm not coming till you open up the rope
And things don't always turn out the way you know
[Bridge]
'Cause I know
And I know
And I know
And I know
I'm not tired, I'm just scared of home
I'm not hiding, I just fear to roam
And I know that I slip under your soul
You're the only one who knows that I need to go
[Chorus]
And I know that you want me
Oh, I flow with your heartbeat
I'm not coming till you open up the rope
And things don't always turn out the way you know
And I know that you want me
Oh, I flow with your heartbeat
I'm not coming till you open up the rope
And things don't always turn out the way you know
[Outro]
'Cause I know
And I know
And I know
And I know
