Lyrics

Boul ma sene, boul ma guiss madi re nga fokni mane Khamouma li neka thi sama souf ak thi guinaw Beugouma kouma khol oaldine yaw li neka si yaw Mo ne si man, li ne si mane moye dilene diapale Roughneck and rudeness We should be using, on the ones who practice wicked charms For the sword and the stone Bad to the bone Battle is not over Even when it's won And when a child is born into this world It has no concept Of the tone the skin it's living in It's not a second Seven seconds away Just as long as I stay I'll be waiting It's not a second Seven seconds away Just as long as I stay I'll be waiting I'll be waiting I'll be waiting J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils esperent Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils desesperent Je veux les portes grandements ouvertes Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas Changer Seven seconds away Just as long as I stay I'll be waiting It's not a second Seven seconds away Just as long as I stay I'll be waiting I'll be waiting I'll be waiting And when a child is born into this world It has no concept Of the tone the skin it's living in and there's a Million voices And there's a Million voices To tell you what she should be thinking So you better sober up for just a second Well seven seconds away Oh just as long as I stay I'll be waiting It's not a second Seven seconds away Just as long as I stay I'll be waiting It's not a second Seven seconds away Just as long as I stay I'll be waiting It's not a second Seven seconds away Just as long as I stay I'll be waiting It's not a second Seven seconds away Just as long as I stay I'll be waiting
