Sweeter 歌詞
Hoping for a life more sweeter
追求平等的甘甜
Instead I'm just a story repeating
只因我成日受人歧視
Why do I fear with skin dark as night?
生為黑人時常膽戰心驚
Can't feel peace with those judging eyes
那些異樣的眼神令我難尋平靜
I thought we moved on from the darker days
本以為那黑暗社會早已破滅
Did the words of the King disappear in the air
至聖公言又再次被踐踏了嗎
Like a butterfly?
這一切都虛假無比
Somebody should hand you a felony
無緣無故被扣上深重罪名
Because you stole from me
你阻擋了我的光
My chance to be
讓我一次次潰敗
Hoping for a life more sweeter
我只追求平等的甘甜
Instead I'm just a story repeating
奈何成日受人歧視
Why do I fear with skin dark as night?
生為黑人時常膽戰心驚
Can't feel peace with those judging eyes
那些異樣的眼神令我難尋平靜
The tears of my Mother rain rain over me
母親常在我眼前悲情啜泣
My sisters and my brothers sing sing over me
兄弟姐妹們則日夜高歌
And I wish I had another day
多希望今日早些過去
But it's just another day
但明日如舊苦殤
Hoping for a life more sweeter
我只追求平等的甘甜
Instead I'm just a story repeating
奈何成日受人歧視
Why do I fear with skin dark as night?
生為黑人時常膽戰心驚
Can't feel peace with those judging eyes
那些異樣的眼神令我難尋平靜
Hoping for a life more sweeter
看似並不難求的平等我甘之若飴
