If you do not know your password, go to the Google Accounts page, click on "Can't access account" below the "Sign in" button, then type in your email address and hit "Submit." Next, type in characters to continue the process then a secondary email address to change Gmail password so it is sent to the email address. If you select the option, “I can’t access my account,” Google will redirect you to answer a series of questions to help recover your Gmail account.
