Well I stand up next to a mountain
Chop it down with the edge of my hand
Well I stand up next to a mountain
Chop it down with the edge of my hand
Pick up the pieces and make an island
Might even raise a little sand

'Cause I'm a voodoo child
Lord knows I'm a voodoo child

I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
Give it back to you one of these days
I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
Give it back to you one of these days
If I don't meet you again in this world
Then I see you in the next one
Don't be late

'Cause I'm a voodoo child

(Kidjo/Hébrail)

Featuring Kelly Price

Min bi do té la
Gbè fib dité joib nub kiii
Min bi do té la
Mon djin nou bi kanan non an

I've lived my life sometimes pretending
The world is fine
No one is needing

Afo nan sogbé nou wanyinyin in in lo
Azo do gbè wou
Do gbe sin dagbé ba wè min bi dé

Down in my soul I hear you calling
Open your heart and just let love in

Because the world has another face
Because the world has another face
Open your eyes
Open your eyes

Ali ga ho de man nan do minté
Azo do gbè wou
Nou min nan kplé gbèto lè bi do kpoooo

We need to love each other freely
Remove the blinders, so we can see

Afo nan sogbé nou wanyinyin in in lo
Azo do gbè wou
Do gbe sin dagbé ba wè min bi dé

I lift my voice so I can show you
There's so much more in life
We can do

Because the world has another face
Because the world has another face
Open your eyes

Still has its power.
I've been away for so long that I wonder
If the sound of the drums
Still has its power. Min bisse kplé bo doté bohissi do houngan lè
Etchi nou min do nounkonton tché dié
