Treed Murray (Also known as Get Down) is a 2001 Canadian drama/thriller film. It was written and directed by William Phillips and features Stargate Atlantis star, British-born Canadian actor David Hewlett. It won two Genie Awards (Overall Sound and Sound Editing), and was nominated for three more (Motion Picture, Direction, and Music - Original Song).
During a routine walk home, advertising executive Murray (David Hewlett) runs into Carter (Kevin Duhaney), a would-be mugger. After a struggle, Murray strikes Carter in the face with his briefcase and proceeds to walk away. Murray notices that the mugger is part of a small gang, which begins to chase him. Fearing for his life, he climbs a tree to evade capture, but finds himself unable to leave when the gang decides to wait for him to come down.
Attempts to call for help are useless, as Murray had been forced to give up his possessions to his attackers. As the night rolls in, the gang slowly becomes desperate and tries to force Murray out of the tree but find themselves accidentally providing him with weapons and hostages. The night continues and through several events, the two sides learn the importance of human life and begin to change.
What have I missed
Living like this
Who did I get this for
Fancy house and my fancy car
While your living like this
Together as kids
You were my best of friend
All the trouble you got up in
See I been there
And I been scared
I been discriminated against and compared
To you who's my brother
Thanks to you I discovered
There's only one way to go in life and that's be right
There's only one way to do right right right right
See me I aint always done right right right right
that's why im here to help you fight
fight to do right
You were the queen in my future I was the one you was used to
It was like we were one
up under the sun
Heartaches in your system the love I should've unlisted
Now look what we've become
But I shouldn't judge

To you who's my mother

Cause in life there a decisions to make
but its your choice
But I chose to walk away
Rather that wild'n not a chance to be locked away
See my friends all chose the fast money
but I chose my boy
Cause I knew you'd come for me
Yea you'd come for me
Yea any day
See what im trying to say is that im trying to be the best man I can be
And what I see in you struggling and do the best you can do
You may run into a rock but you cant let it stop what's planned for you
So make the right choice
There's only one way to do right right right right
See me I aint always done right right right right
that's why im here to help you fight
To do right
There's only one way to do right right right right
See me I aint always done right right right right
that's why im here to help you fight
