2 Songs that i believe show 'enocuntering conflict' are;

Eye of the Tiger - Survivor - www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mu9xx5Ri278
Ghetto Gospel - Tupac Ft. Elton John - www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxR4AweLeXE

Eye of the Tiger is all about determination, hardship, courage, and encountering the conflict between a man and his goals. A man who is 'rising up,' getting back on his feet, just a man and his will to survive. He tries not to lose his grip on reality and must fight to keep everything right

Ghetto Gospel is about a black man living in the ghettos in America, he is poor and lives in a dangerous, povery stricken neighbourhood, where violence and drugs are part of everyday life. He encounters conflict in trying to avoid all the problems and make a better life for himself and his family
