A million voices

Chanson : 7 seconds, Youssou N'Dour et Neneh Cherry

Paroles

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's 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 is living in

It's not a second
 7 seconds away
 Just as long as I stay
 I'll be waiting
 It's not a second
 7 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 espèrent
 Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils désespèrent
 Je veux les deux mains ouvertes
 Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
 Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas

Changer

7 seconds away
 Just as long as I stay
 I'll be waiting
 It's not a second
 7 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 is living in
 And there's a million voices
 And there's a million voices
 To tell you what you should be thinking
 So you better sober up for just a second

7 seconds away
 Just as long as I stay
 I'll be waiting
 It's not a second
 7 seconds away
 Just as long as I stay
 I'll be waiting

It's not a second
 7 seconds away
 Just as long as I stay
 I'll be waiting
 It's not a second
 7 seconds away
 Just as long as I stay
 I'll be waiting

It's not a second
 7 seconds away
 Just as long as I stay
 I'll be waiting
 It's not a second
 7 seconds away
 Just as long as I stay
