An apk compresses all your project files, so it’s normal that the apk is smaller than all files uncompressed. 7MB is usually not a problem on current Android devices out on the market, I also have app with an apk size of 25MB, and that also works fine on the device. btw: note that 25MB is the apk limit for APKs on the Android market, in case you decide to publish your app there some day.
