Sa bawat ulos ng kadiliman sa aking dibdib
Bawat pighating nagkukubli sa sulok ng damdamin ng bayan kong naliliblib
Nananalaytay ang isang pag-asang bumubulong at pumipintig
Na balang araw mapapagpantay pantay ko rin ang bawat salaysay at hangarin ng taumbayang
Nagnanais na maringig

Minsan na ring nawalan ng pag-asa sa gitna ng kaguluhang nangyayari
Kaliwa’t kanang sigawan, boses at ingay ang naririnig sa paligid ang hindi ko na rin mawari
Hindi na malaman kung kanino, saan, at anong boses ang susundan at pakikinggan
Nagkakandalito na kung ano ang paniniwalaan at pagkakatiwalaan

Mayroong mga hindi na alam kung anong pupuntahan dahil sa dami ng naririnig nila
Hindi na makapa ang daang nilalakaran patungo sa inaasam asam na kaliwanagan ng kanilang mga mata
Ngayon, napapatanong ako sa aking sarili, na kanino nga ba ang salitang “kapangyarihan?”
Nasa sa kanila o nasa pinamumunuan?

Ngunit sambayanan, nararamdaman kong nais mo talaga ng isang maunlad, progresibo at mapayapang kapaligiran
Kung kaya’t hindi pa rin tayo mawawalan ng pag-asa magmula pa noon hanggang sa kasalukuyan
Naniniwala akong nasa atin pa rin ang mga boses na hindi pasigaw at lakas na hindi sa dahas
Nandito pa rin nananatiling buhay ang nag-aalab na pag-asang ang liwanag ay muling sisinag at hindi na kakalas

Marami nang pagkakataong maski ako ay gusto na ring sumuko’t tumalikod na lang
Ngunit nananaig pa rin sa akin ang isang pangarap para sa kinabukasan
Nandito pa rin ako tumitindig at dumaramay para sa mga nangangailangan
Mananatiling gising at mulat para sa pagdating ng araw at liwanag na hinahangad

Nasa atin ngayong mga kabataan ang susi para sa magandang buhay sa susunod na henerasyon
Dahil naniniwala akong tayo ang guguhit ng magandang bukas at pagkakataon
Patuloy na boboses hangga’t dumating ang pinakahihintay na panahon na tayong lahat ay hihilom
Tatanggalin ang mga piring at takip sa mga taingang nangangawali hangga’t ang lahat ay hindi nakababangon at hindi nakaaahon.

Handa na nga ba ang sundalong ito na sumubok
Kahit maraming kamay ang mga naka tutok
Handa na nga ba makarinig ng ibat ibang kumento
Dahil alam kong Mag kakaroon ito ng ibang epekto

Tuluyan na nga bang kakayanin ang mga pagsubok
O patuloy na Lang mag tatago at mag mumukmok
kakayanin na nga ba ang mga Ibat ibang klaseng titig
Na sa aking puso ay maslalong bumibilis ang pag pintig

Maraming pagkakataon na ang aking po Pinalipas
Dahil pag aakala ko ay ako'y malakas
Napapag tanto ko sa sarili ko na ito ang wakas

Kasabay ng malakas na hangin naway kasabay nito ang aking mga panalangin
Tuluyan na nga bang kakayanin?
O baka ito na ang tanda na para akoy mag handa dito
Sa mundong napupuno nang maraming maling akala
Ngunit hinde padin ako titigil humiling sa mga tala

Tumigil na raw ako sabi, ng bulsa kong butas.

Wala namang sweldo sa pagiging manunulat.

Ngunit tignan mo lasengo sa kanto, walang trabaho, pero gabi-gabing naka-kwatro-kantos.

Kahit isanla ko kaluluwa ko dito ganon padin, 24 pesos na kita sa mga publishing parang daga padin.

Bago ako matulog, nakatitig ako sa siling. "Kung ang sugarol laging may one last game, Ako pa ba ang titigil sa pag-abot ng fame?"

Pag labas ko ng bahay para pumasok sa eskuwelahan, tinignan ang bulsang umiiyak.

"Ang adik kaya nawalan ng pursigido sa buhay?" Nakakahanap ng tanso, nakakabenta ng gripo.

Kung sa bisyo nga nila may "diskarte" na mahiwaga.

Kaya ikaw, titigil ka pa ba?

O isasangla mo rin ang gripo para lang makatula?

"Wala na tayong kutsara, di ka kase nag huhugas!" sabi ni Nanay na dismayado.

Hindi niya alam, converted na 'yun sa kape at ballpen na bago.

Kung ang magnanakaw nga, handang umakyat ng bakod.

Ako pa ba ang susuko, eh itong tula nga lang laging lingkod?

Alas-tres ng madaling araw, mata ko’y parang bumbilya.

Mukha na akong adik na naghahanap ng mga salita.

Sabi ni mama "Matulog ka na wala kang mapapala diyan kaka puyat mo"

Ang tambay nga nakakagawa ng milagro sa kalsada.

Ako pa ba na aayaw sa hirap ng makinilya at bariya?

Kahit ang bituka ko'y tumutunog na parang radyong de-baterya.

Hindi ito hihinto sa simpleng "pagod na ako,"

Kaya ikaw, titigil ka pa ba?

O isasangla mo rin ang gripo para lang makatula?

In a moment of desperation
The men rely on leaders with great expectations
These leaders weave promises with silver tongues.
Promising to be the voice of numbers among
They govern with evident greed
Running with the same last names, yet still we let them lead

When they're finally in power, they avert their gaze
Their promises then begin to stray
When calamities struck, they are no where to be found
Our country sinks deeper into despair and have damaged done
The citizens awaken, while the truth remains unspoken
We'll soon drown, not from the flood but from their reign

A nation once dreamt of democracy
Now filled with rage, full of misery
Truth is buried, lies take the stage
Freedom now trapped in a golden cage
We riot for change, we plead for light
In the darkest hours, we rise to fight

When will this end?
When will the government stop to pretend?
Justice is lost, we're losing our rights
Darkness is taking over the light
The innocent weep, their voices drowned
While justice shields the rich men's ground
