Lyrics by：Allen Pineda/Cesar Banares
Composed by：Allen Pineda/Cesar Banares
Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayo
Listen up y'all
Ako'y may dala-dalang balita galing sa bayan ko
Listen closely y'all
Nais kong ipamahagi ang mga kuwento
Ang mga pangyayaring nagaganap sa lupang pinangako
Yo every place got a ghetto
This is my version of it 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'
That's how we be survivin' back in my homeland
Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayo
Listen up y'all
Ako'y may dala-dalang balita galing sa bayan ko
Listen closely y'all
Nais kong ipamahagi ang mga kuwento
Ang mga pangyayaring nagaganap sa lupang pinangako
Yo it's been a while but
I been back home to my homeland
Check it out
To see what's going on
Man it feels good to be back at home
And it's been a decade on the journey all alone
I was fourteen when I first left Philippines
I've 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 life's stresses gets you down
On your knees oh brother I wish I could have helped you out
Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayo
Listen up y'all
Ako'y may dala-dalang balita galing sa bayan ko
Listen closely y'all
Nais kong ipamahagi ang mga kuwento
Ang mga pangyayaring nagaganap sa lupang pinangako
Help me help me
Help me help me
Help me help me
Help me help me
Help me help me
Help me help me
Help me
