7 Seconds 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 is living in
CHORUS
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 (x3)
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
CHORUS
And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone of the skin he'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
CHORUS
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
We should be using, on the ones who practice wicked charms

Bad to the bone
Battle is not over
Even when it's won
And when a child

It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is 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

Just as long as I stay

first part translation:
dont see me from a distance Do not see my smile and think I do not know What's below and behind me I do not want to see me and think That what is inside of you is in me What's inside of me is to help them
french part:
I assume the reasons that push us to change everything, I would like to forget their color they hope Many feelings of race which they despair I want to open doors, Friends to talk about their pain, their joy They spin for their information that does not divide change
I understood that a study had resulted in it taking about 7 seconds for human beings to remove racial prejudice when they see someone other than their own race, no matter how depreciated we are, it's something natural to our species. I guess that's where the meaning of the song comes from, which is exactly what it's about.
