"Wasting My Hate" was inspired by Country outlaw Waylon Jennings, a good friend of James Hetfield. Waylon told James the story of when he was on vacation in Jamaica. Waylon was in a bar when one of the local Jamaicans just kept staring at him. This started to make Waylon very angry because this guy would not stop staring at him. Later, he found out that the Jamaican was high and had no idea that he was staring, meaning Waylon was angry for no reason. He was wasting his hate on the Jamaican.
"I thought it was a wonderful song because it was so optimistic," Berg said later as he sat in a wheelchair just outside the doors of the church. Hundreds filed past, each shaking his hand or giving him a hug, like greeting the minister after church.
"It really expressed the commitment and the love that we have for the city," he said. "It just sort of summarized what Anita said, and I really thought she said it so well. I was moved to see it in song."
If Terry Berg wanted to run for office today, he could, based on the enthusiastic attaboys offered time and again by those glad to see him, to touch him. To a person, folks carrying signs or walking tall, stopped to pat his shoulder, letting him know what has been clear since the shooting: He is no poster child for victim. He is a symbol of resilience and quiet courage.
Laurin, whose wife gave him a guitar seven years ago, said he has written 40 songs. The song was a declaration of peace, a plea for pride and responsibility and a pronouncement that hate isn't going to force good people to leave a city getting better.
"In all that you do, carry Detroit with you, because anyone who's from here will say that they are the person they are because of Detroit," she said. "Detroit makes you. It gives you a sense of pride. I love my city. I love it here. And the fact that he wrote this song means he's saying something that I connect with. It shows the strength of the culture and history of Detroit.
