I was driving home late last week looking forward to gettin home to sleep when out of nowhere to my right I saw a car speeding towards me And that moment seemed like an hour I could see the face of the driver she had a look of panic in her eyes then I felt the pain of impact I wondered whether she was ok and I wondered what was on her mind She must have felt terrible I hoped that I could help her And I didn't get angry then and I'm not angry now cause getting angry don't do no good It don't solve any problems *** I met a kid downtown today seemed to think I was in his way he gave me a shove and he put a gun to my head And he said hey man what you think you're doing in my town I guess he thought that he was quite a clown and I looked into his frown And I wondered what made him that way Did he have a mom and dad who loved him? Did he have a dream of what he wanted to be someday? And I didn't get angry then and I'm not angry now cause getting angry don't do no good It don't solve any problems *** I heard about a kid in Afghanistan just surviving any way he can in a dried up, desert land where there's not a lot of prospects His only goal was to become a man so they knelt down in front of him and explained to him of evil and they taught him how to drive a van And I wondered what made him that way could we have somehow made him different? Could we give him a dream of what he might be someday? But I didn't get angry then and I'm not angry now cause getting angry don't do no good There's better ways to solve problems *** What would you have been feeling then? What are you feeling now? Do I make you angry? or do I make you smile?

Come to the corner I will hear your problems I don't have all the answers But you can talk to me. It will help us get along And you may not agree But you can talk to me. Oh, Gabrielle I am coming to get you I do not know why They told me hate the government They told me you're a socialist I do not know why But now, you must die. Now there are riots in Egypt To oust an arrogant man He had all the answers But now he doesn't know why They are swarming in the streets Yes, they are swarming in the streets. Oh, Gabrielle I am here to greet you I want to know why We lose our faith in government They bark and call us socialists We may disagree May not see eye to eye Yes, we may disagree But you can talk to me. Oh,Gabrielle... @2011 Michael Gutierrez-May

Everyday you run and every night Cause you know if you finally stop to fight That you will lose the ones so close to you Tell me what is it like to be alone like you You draw the danger anywhere you go It doesn't matter how fast or how slow you run Cause you're magnetized and destinized And traumatized and paralyzed So tell me how is it like to be alone like you So you keep running and running And dying and dying And living and living And trying and trying But tell me what is it like to be alone like you
