Iwoya (w/ Dave Matthews) Lyrics - Black Ivory Soul - Angelique Kidjo

You don't have to be old to be wise 

The bird doesn't wait till he dies to fly 

And emptiness is not for me 

Fill me up and spill over me 

Fitila èda témin o 

Lodan ninou ayé, kpèlou oyaya 

Mofè dada foun èda min o 

Monfè ki ayé témin koda 

See your soul, open your eyes 

From inside your soul comes shining

The bird doesn't wait till he dies to fly 

And emptiness is not for me 

Fill me up and spill over me 

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
