7 Seconds Lyrics

Don't see me from a distance
   Don't look at my smile
   And think that I don't know
   What's under and behind me
   I don't want you to look at me
   And think
   What's in you is in me
   What's in me is to help them
   I assume the reasons that push us to
   Change everything
   I would like us to forget about
   Their color
   So they can be optimistic
   Too many views on rave that make them
   Desperate
   Let's leave the doors wide open
   So they can talk about their pain
   Then we can give them information
   That will bring us all together
   Chorus:
   It's not a second
   7 seconds away
   Just as long as I stay
   I'll be waiting
   Nothing can move us, we should
   Be moving
   From the ones who practice wicked
   Charms
   For the son and the stone
   Bad to the bone
   Man is not evil, even when it's born
   And when a child is born into this world
   It has no concept
   The tone the skin is living in
   Chorus
   There's a million voices
   There's a million voices
   To tell you what she should be thinking
   So you better sober up for just a second
