Funk, 1970's
Lyrics
you feel that?
That’s the rhythm of the fight, baby.
Mind like water… fists like thunder.
The dragon’s here — and he don’t sleep.
Verse 1
Silk suit, barefoot, steppin’ in the sun,
Got a mission from the temple, now the battle’s begun,
Han’s island’s hummin’, trouble in the air,
But the dragon’s eyes watch everywhere.
Cooler than steel, sharper than pain,
He don’t fight for glory, he don’t fight for fame, Just the truth, peace and justice he seeks got the power that the wicked can’t reach.
Chorus
(Yeah!) Enter the funk — the dragon don’t sleep,
Moves so smooth, and his soul runs deep,
Step by step, bringin’ justice down,
He’s the king of the fight, wearin’ no man’s crown!
Verse 2
Got Jim and Roper, brothers in the scene,
Fightin’ in the shadows for the righteous dream,
Ain’t no chains can hold this groove,
When the spirit’s strong, the body moves!
Mirror room flashin’, truth revealed,
One man standin’ with a soul of steel,
Break that glass, let the lies all fall,
When the dragon roars — he roars for all!
Chorus
(Yeah!) Enter the funk — the dragon don’t sleep, oh yeah
Moves so smooth, and his soul runs deep, (deep
Step by step, bringin’ justice down,
He’s the king of
wearin’
no man’s crown!

Who got the style?
(The dragon!)
Who got the soul?
(The dragon!)
Who’s keepin’ cool when the fight gets deep?
(The dragon — and he don’t sleep!)
Outro – Spoken with rising horns and percussion
Now dig this...
You can learn the moves, but not the groove.
You can throw the punch, but not the peace.
When the mind is still, the dragon wakes...
And baby — that’s the funk of the East.
