Sweeter (feat. Terrace Martin)

Hoping for a life more sweeter
 Instead, I'm just a story repeating
 ♪
 Why do I fear with skin dark as night?
 Can't feel peace with those judging eyes
 I thought we moved on from the darker days
 Did the words of the king disappear in the air
 Like a butterfly?
 Somebody should hand you a felony
 ♪
 'Cause you stole from me
 My chance to be
 Hoping for a life more sweeter
 ♪
 Instead, I'm just a story repeating
 ♪
 Why do I fear with skin dark as night?
 Can't feel peace with those judging eyes
 The tears of my mother rain, rain over me
 My sisters and my brothers sing, sing over me
 And I wish I had another day
 But it's just another day
