I wrote this because I wish you'd think about the people struggling besides yourself.

Remix by TunnaBeatz on Youtube. Original song "I'll Be Good" by Jaymes Young. Enjoy.

This got played on the radio in the UK. I stayed up all night to hear it. Unreal, that's how it was.

Un. Real.

[Lyrics]

[Chorus]

I'll be a better man today

I'll be good

I'll be good

And I'll

Love the world

like I should

Yeah

I'll be good

I'll be good

For all of the time

That I never could

[Verse 1]

Saw a man with a sign last week

Dirty clothes, dirty face, open cut on his cheek

Asking for a little help

In a world so bleak, even if it meant you had to look at him like a freak

And that's exactly what they did

Before they shuffled away

Acting like they didn't see him

Actin like they couldn't stay

Actin blinder than him

As they averted their gaze

And then the man just sat there

For the rest of the day

Never once did the man ask why

Or try to front with 'em, tell them lies

So can ya gimme one reason why

When he needed help, no one tried

As the street grew dark

He slowly packed up his things

Tried to straighten his collar, tried to tie his shoe strings

And as he limped for the alley, I heard the man start to sing

[Chorus]

I'll be a better man today

I'll be good

I'll be good

And I'll

Love the world

like I should

Yeah

I'll be good

I'll be good

For all of the time

That I never could

Now, now, now,

Now, two weeks had past and I gave it little thought

No consideration found for a lesson untaught

In the wake of going home he became an afterthought

If I'm being brutally honest I had completely forgot

Until I turned on my TV

And flipped it over to the news

When I looked into the background

I saw a familiar pair of shoes

Sure enough, Their they lay, unlaced

While a black body bag covered up the man's face

I could hear the woman talking, calling him a saving grace

Cause he jumped and took a bullet, and he died in her place

But I bet you never wondered

If she put food on his plate

And I guess that’s just fate

And never once did the man ask why

Or try to front with 'em, tell them lies

So can ya gimme one reason why

When he needed help, no one tried

After seeing this awful scene so

bravely displayed

I fell straight my knees and I could only pray

Please, oh please

Make me a better man today

[Chorus x2]
