2. Manchild was a funk band from 70's. Debut album from this 7-piece outfit that contained the nest egg of a young Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds. Years before his stint as a frontman for "The Deele" in the 80's and his excellent solo career over at Laface, Kenny played electric guitar for Manchild. Daryl Simmons was also a member of the band and the two went on to collaborate together on various LaFace projects with countless big name R&B stars. Though Manchild never really made it big and quite frankly, Suffered from some simply not-so-funky moments, The band did have a few guitar-heavy hot numbers and at times had a style close to that of "Earth, Wind & Fire" and other righteous-groove/unity based outfits. Musically, Manchild had the potential to blossom into a great ensemble but folded just after 3 albums.

The 21st Century. It is a shifting, shadowy, extraordinary world... and very dangerous. Most people are content to survive and grab what little pleasure they can. But there are others who cunningly play the deadly game of world mastery...

Hard Wax
Manchild Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is gonna wake the night.
The lyrics of Manchild's song Hard Wax are very evocative and hint at deeper meaning beyond just surface-level interpretation. When the singer sings, "This blood... is gonna wake the night," he speaks of a sacrifice or an act that will disrupt the peace or status quo. This graphic language suggests that something significant and possibly dangerous is about to happen, and the singer is preparing for it. The use of the word "blood" implies that this event will not come without cost, that it may involve violence or bloodshed. The phrase "wake the night" is also significant, as night often represents darkness, mystery, and the unknown. Thus, the singer is suggesting that their act will bring attention to something that is hidden or unknown.
It is possible that the song has political connotations, with the singer preparing to take a stand against an oppressive or unjust system. Alternatively, it could speak to a personal struggle or journey, with the singer ready to confront their demons and take control of their destiny. The ambiguity of the lyrics allows for multiple interpretations, but at its core, the song speaks of courage, determination, and the willingness to pay a price for one's beliefs.
