Your landlord can only keep your deposit if your cause damage to the property outside of normal wear and tear, which, after seven years of continuous tenancy, would be quite difficult to prove unless he is meticulous about maintenance of the property. The longevity of your tenancy has nothing to do with whether your landlord can keep your deposit.

Can a landlord prevent you from leaving?

This depends, "prevent you from leaving" has many connotations to it. The landlord cannot make you keep to the contract (the lease) but he can seek damages if you violate it. Your landlord cannot lock your door from the outside as to prevent you from legally leaving the property. This could be defined as false imprisonment. Prevent you from leaving the lease by offering you a reduced rent? Of course. But he can't force you.
