Gilbert Green (I Am All I Need) Lyrics by The Irons

Taking It All In

2020

[Narrator]
Our heroes journey continues with Gilbert Green. Gilbert faces primarily internal conflicts that need a resolution, yet he feels directionless through much of the story. That all changes when suddenly, by a vision, he realizes the astonishing vastness and complexities of the Earth, reality, and life itself. He soon comes to understand that everything is connected, and a new appreciation for family, friends, and the world he inhabits makes home in his conscience, which might just be the guidance Gilbert needs as he makes his way into the pits of hell
[Verse 1: Gilbert]
I know I am all that I need
And I’ve been workin’ on me
I’ve just got to find who I wanna be
And who I am, whatever that means
I don’t know where it all leads
Is my home really where I wanna be
I’ve been thinkin’ of it all so differently
Seeing things I never thought that I’d see
[Verse 2]
When has this not been said before
When Peter says look deep inside of me, I say I am all I really need
Yet I’m on the edge and barely standing on my own two feet
Somehow that’s been makin’ me feel free
And reality feels somewhat like I’m acting out a scene
Scripted by somebody I can’t see
Where at times I feel like breaking down but I know that’s not me
I am all I need, I’m Gilbert Green
[Spoken Word: Vincent Violet, Bobby Blue & Vincent’s Mom]
Okay, get his legs, get his legs
Okay
Alright bring him in here, right here, put him right here, put him right there!
Okay, okay!
Everybody be dead silent, seriously
Shut that music off Bobby
I don’t want my mom comin’ in here-
Vinny is everything alright?
We’re good! (Gilbert wake up)
Nice guys, nice
Now my mom thinks we’re in here all strung out on pippys (Gilbert wake up!)
Okay Peter Clear Boy, come here. You listenin’ to me? Okay. Go into the kitchen and get Gilbert a glass of water, and if you see my mom just distract her, keep her in there. Okay go! (Gilbert [?]. I’m seriously getting so scared right now. [?] We need to call an ambulance.)
Oh my god Bobby, shut up. Shut up!
Look oh look he’s awake! (Oh, oh Gilbert)
Gilbert are you good? What’s the matter with you Gilbert? ([?] passed out.)
Gilbert? Gilbert no! (No!)
