7 Seconds

[Verse 1: Pape Diouf]

Boul ma sene, boul ma guiss madi re nga fokni mane

Khamouma li neka thi sama souf ak thi guinaw

Beugouma kouma khol dal diné yaw li neka si yaw

Mo ne si mane, li ne si mane moye dilene diapale

[Verse 2: Coco]

Roughness 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 of skin it's living in

[Chorus: Coco & Pape Diouf]

It's not a second

We're sevеn seconds away

Or just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting

It's not a second

Wе're seven seconds away

Or just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting

[Post-Chorus: Coco & Pape Diouf]

I'll be waiting

I'll be waiting

[Verse 3: Pape Diouf]

J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout

J'aimerais qu'on oublie leurs couleurs pour qu'ils espèrent

Beaucoup de sentiments de races qui font qu'ils désespèrent

Je veux les deux mains ouvertes

Des amis pour parler de leurs peines, et de leur joie

Pour qu'ils leur aient des infos qui ne divisent pas—

[Chorus: Pape Diouf, Coco & Pape Diouf]

Changez

Seven seconds away

Or just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting

It's not a second

Seven seconds away

Or just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting

It's not a second

We're seven seconds away

Or just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting

[Post-Chorus: Coco & Pape Diouf]

I'll be waiting

To tell you what you should be thinking

So you better sober up

[Chorus: Coco & Pape Diouf]

For just a second

We're seven seconds away

Or just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting (Woah-woah)

It's not a second

We're seven seconds away

Or just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting

It's not a second (Woah-woah, yeah)

We're seven seconds away

Just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting

It's not a second

We're seven seconds away

Or just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting

It's not a second

We're seven seconds away

For just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting
