Temptation by my side, I can feel it
Staring at the back of my head
It's trying to bring me down
All around are the voices of the innocent
Keeping me away from temptation
Temptation, right or wrong, always calling me
Buried under my feet, but its heartbeat keeps enthralling me
I'm living large, living like I ain't got long to live
And it all just ends in frustration
I should have learned to groove with the funk
Instead I moved on, gone for such a long time
Change is something I'll never know
Growing 'til I'm older, groovin' to the funk now
Temptation justified just to ease my mind
Juxtaposed in ways that'll keep me blind
And then I find that the sun ain't gonna hide for long
Gotta learn to live with temptation
I should have learned to groove with the funk
Instead I moved on, gone for such a long time
Change is something I'll never know
Growing 'til I'm older, groovin' to the funk now
I should have learned to groove with the funk
(Yeah I shoulda learned, yeah)
Instead I moved on, gone for such a long time (woah yeah, moved on)
Change is something I'll never know (I'll never know)
Growing 'til I'm older, groovin' to the funk now
I should have learned to groove with the funk
(I shoulda learned, yeah)
Instead I moved on, gone for such a long time
(Move, move, move on)
Change is something I'll never know (I'll never know)
Growing 'til I'm older, groovin' to the funk now (yeah, that funk now)
I should have learned to groove with the funk
(Woah yeah, I shoulda learned)
Instead I moved on, gone for such a long time
(Gone, gone a long time)
Change is something I'll never know (never know)
Growing 'til I'm older, groovin' to the funk now (move to the funk now)
(Shoulda learned, shoulda learned, shoulda learned, shoulda learned)
I should have learned to groove with the funk
Instead I moved on, gone for such a long time
(Shoulda learned, shoulda learned, shoulda learned, shoulda learned)
Change is something I'll never know (never know)
Growing 'til I'm older, grooving to the funk now (yeah)
(Shoulda learned, shoulda learned, shoulda learned, shoulda learned)
(Shoulda learned, shoulda learned, shoulda learned, shoulda learned)
