I don't believe it's true, things that you're going through
Some people say you hate me,
I don't believe it's you, things that you're going through,
Some people sad I pray for,
No one you want to live, the eyes that once were his
Some people sad I pray for,
The way you want to live, the eyes you want to give
Some people say you played me,
I don't care if it's true, I'm waiting here for you,
Some people say you made it,
I'm not afraid to know, when things are getting low
Some people say you hate me,
I don't believe it's true, things that you're going through
Some people say you hate me,
I don't believe it's you, things that you're going through
Gong Li - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Released on the 1991 album *Blood Sugar Sex Magik*, "Gong Li" stands as a quintessential example of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' fusion of funk, rock, and psychedelic elements. The track features the band's signature interplay between Anthony Kiedis's melodic vocals and Flea's driving basslines, anchored by a heavy, distorted guitar tone that defines their sound during this era. While the song does not appear on the primary studio album, it remains a staple of their live performances and has been included on various compilations and live recordings, such as *Live in Hyde Park [2004]*. Its enduring popularity highlights the band's ability to craft anthemic tracks that resonate across generations, solidifying their status as pioneers of alternative funk rock.
