I’m so sick of running as fast as I can,
Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man.
And I'm so sick of them coming at me again,
'Cause if I was a man,
Then I'd be the man.
I'd be the man.
I'd be the man.

I hope our young men will not grow into such dodgers as these old men are. I believe everything that a young man says to me (p. 250).

Every guy says he's not like every guy, thus proving he is like every guy. Show me a guy who's different, and I'll tell you to stop pointing at me.

When you turn your back on someone, they come running after you.

I rarely get mentioned in the same category as these other guys who have come out after me...[b]ut maybe I'm not that, maybe I'm not an Internet rapper.

I'm Offended When Younger Guys Ask Me Out.

A lot of men in their twenties say they admire me and want to date me. I am sure most of them think I am really young. Sometimes, I find it annoying because if they know my actual age, they wouldn’t come close or show interest in me. Some of them are young enough to be my younger brothers.

"No," his father replied, "you ran for you. I just hope you're running toward something, not away from something."

I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through.
Looking into their eyes I see them running too.

They’re not after me , they’re after you. I’m just in the way.

They’re not after me, they’re after you. I’m just in the way.

Most of the young men of talent whom I have met in this country give one the impression of being somewhat demented. Why shouldn't they? They are living amidst spiritual gorillas, living with food and drink maniacs, success-mongers, gadget innovators, publicity hounds. God, if I were a young man today, if I were faced with a world such as we have created, I would blow my brains out.

Am I walking toward something I should be running away from?

Perhaps it's chasing me. But I don't think it will ever catch me because I am moving fast.
