i disagree with all the pedaphile accusations. one of the accusers fathers admitted that he wanted to ruin MJ, leave the poor guy alone, he wrote this song out of pure anguish for all the troubles he's had to face: an abusive father, all the accusations against himself, etc. i think the song is basically sayin that he is trying to live but it is difficult. in example he says "But they told me
A man should be faithful
And walk when not able
And fight till the end
But I'm only human"
everyone seems to expect the guy to be perfect cause he is Michael Jackson, but he is only human like the rest of us. he's been through addictions and has faced hardships just like the rest of us. also the whole thing about everyone's trying to take hold of me i think is all the paparazzi trying to control and run his life.
i think the whole song basically gives the gist that he is looking for someone to who can lend a shoulder in his time of need. he was looking for somone who he could trust, someone who could love him and help him through his sorrows. it almost seems like this song is referenced toward his asking God to take Michael in His hands and comfort in him in all his sorrows, pains, and agony.
i know accusations don't give him any excuse, but he is probably just ripped on a lot cause he has a lot of money and people know they can get it off of him.
@portrartist: he was facing much accusations even b4 the two trials and stuff. the media had been trying to make him look like a fool since the post-thriller era -- they juz failed becuz there were huge -- HUGE crowds of fans, and he was in pretty good light, becuz the accusations were not much focused on. the first accusation was pretty much the end of his popularity -- well, not for his fans, but the outside world started to look at him with disgust, that is. the accusations became the limelight thereafter -- all i got when...

if this is not the case, then i guess he's juz writing that to suit the film :P

I agree with you but this song was recorded in '91 . Two years before the allegations.
