Not sure where 7 years comes from you will have a warrant for the rest of your life, warrants do not expire, once criminal charges are filed.
While they will not come hunting you, if you are stopped for speeding or ID check, you will be held pending a check with Texas to see if they want to come get you.
My guess they will not, but they may stop and hold you to check every time you are stopped to see if they change their minds.
It may also cause issues when trying to renew drivers license.
But then who knows, some new clerk on duty at midnight some night and you are stopped they may decide to come after you.
