akoy may daladalang balita galing sa bayan ko

lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayo
akoy may daladalang balita galing sa bayan ko
nais kong ipamahagi ang mga kwento
ang mga pangyayaring nagaganap
sa lupang pinangako
verse one apldeap
every place got a ghetto this is my version
check it out
listen closely yo i got a story to tell
a version of my ghetto where life felt for real
some would call it hell but to me it was heaven
god gave me the grace amazin ways of living
how would you feel if you had to catch your meal
build a hut to live and to eat and chill in
having to pump the water outta the ground
the way we put it down utilizing what is around
like land for farming river for fishing
everyone helpin each other whenever they can
we makin it happen from nothin to somethin
thats how we be survivin back in my homeland
yo its been a while but
i been back home to my homeland to see whats going on
man it feels good to be back at home
and its been a decade on the journey all alone
i was fourteen when i first left philippines
ive been away half my life but it felt like a day
to be next to my mom with her home cooked meal
meant i felt complete my emotions i feel
now life has changed for me in the us
but back at home man life was a mess
i guess sometimes lifes stresses gets you down
on your knees oh brother i wish i could have helped you out
