|
| Check it out…
|
| Listen closely y’all, I got a story to tell
|
| A version of my ghetto where life’s 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 a 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)
