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?

I was 14 when this first came out in 1971 and we play this track all the time back then. Your video really hit the mark on what we imagined were the visuals to the words George Clinton was saying. that's for the post and the video, Thanks!

@fabioz91 I believe Funkadelic did a great job of highlighting the fact that there can't be highs without lows, good without evil, truth without lies, fact without fiction. I believe that everyone has a good and evil within them. In the universe there is matter and antimatter. Electicity would not work without a positive and a negative. In order to be truely enlightened, one must embrace both good and evil because, without evil, how can we distinct what is good? Great video DaGrymReefer!!
