Walang Nangyari – Parokya ni Edgar

isa dalawa tatlo apat

let's talk

you know it's stupid

yo it was okay

walang nangyari sa'kin na magandang irelate

wala kasi nangyari sa'kin na kakaiba

kung wala kang gagawin, yo, makinig ka na

nagising ako kahapon siguro mga one

bumaba 'ko sa kusina sabay ng tanghalian

pagkatapos kong kumain bumalik sa kwarto ko

tapos non ako'y natulog hanggang alas kwarto

okay din ako'y bumagon ako ay nagugutom

bumaba 'ko uli at naghanap ng malalamon

tumingin ako sa ref, pati na rin sa right

wala akong mahanap so umalis ako ng bahay

nagpunta 'ko sa tindahan bumili ng instant mami

bumalik ako sa bahay nanood ako ng tv

walang magandang palabas and yo it was so corny

bigla ko naalala i was feeling kinda horny

binuksan ko yung tv sinarado ko yung door

at pagkatapos kong ilock

nanood ako ng porn..

walang nangyari

walang nangyari

pagkatapos nun alam niyo ba

wala 'kong magawa

minabuti kong magexercise at magpush-ups push-ups muna

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

sabay tayo tanggal ng shirt harap sa salamin

pagkakita sa sarili sabi "shit kulang pa rin!"

so i pushed-up again and nagdagdag pa 'ko nang 7

pagkalipas na nakapagpahinga

agad-agad naghubad maliligo na sana

nang biglang na lang may nagtext

isang magandang ex

na-isip ko, "sana gusto nitong makipag-SSSHHH!!!!"

subalit napamura pagkatapos ko mabasa

sabi'y, "chito friend mo ba yung vocalist ng rivermaya?"

ang sabi ko, "ay hindi!" at sa sobrang inis

dinagdagan ko pa nang "teka, sori, who is this?"

walang nangyari

yo DJ make some claps

yes...

pagkaligo ko natapos din sa relo napatingin

it was already 7:30 at 'di pa 'ko kumakain

gusto ko ng rice at tsaka ng lechon kawali

walang lechon kawali so bumili ng instant mami

pagkatapos kong kumain nagpunta sa terrace namin

nagsipilyo 'ko nang yosi at tuluyan nagpahangin

walang katao-tao doon at medyo madilim

kayo 'ko napraning nung cellphone ko ay nagring

nawala ang aking takot nung cellphone ko ay nabunot

at nakita ko yung caller so agad kong sinagot

"hello there mr. darius ano ang gimmik natin?"

sumagot sya, "hey what's up man? baka trip mong kumain?"

ang sabi ko, "shit sayang naman kakatapos ko lang

tawagan mo na lang ako pagaktapos nang hapunan"

so pinatay ko na yung yosi at bumalik sa kwarto ko

nanood ako ng tv nang kung ano-ano

makalipas tatlong oras ako ay nabato

so pinatay ko na yung tv at natulog na ako

walang nangyari

yo Dj bring it down bring it down

bring it down

yo

yo

pagkatapos nun natapos na

tapos na ang kanta

bakit kaya ganun bakit umaandar pa sya

pinindot ko yung stop

pati na rin yung go

bakit kaya ganun ayaw pa ring nyang huminto

alin kaya dito ang dapat kong pindutin

bakit kaya ganun bakit umaandar pa rin

e kung ito kaya?

I don’t want to admit it, and I try my best to find good things about it, but sad to say… by childhood was… shall we say… unspectacular. Everyday for 12 years, I wake up at 5am, go to school, be a real good and quiet kid, get decent grades, go home, play a little, study, eat, sleep and so on. I wasn’t part of any varsity team, I never won any contest, I never had a barkada until high school and I never became a teacher’s pet. (In fact, the most… shocking… thing I did was tell my teacher that I hated school. I’ve always regretted that…) I was literally your average kid, never with the nerds nor the jocks. I just cruised through life, which when I come to think of it, was the worst thing anyone could do with their lives..
Alapaap – Eraserheads

may isang umaga na tayo'y magsasama

haya at halina sa alapaap

o anong sarap

hanggang sa dulo ng mundo

hanggang maubos ang ubo

hanggang gumulong ang luha

hanggang mahulog ang tala

masdan mo ang aking mata

di mo ba nakikita

ako ngayo'y lumilipad at nasa langit na

gusto mo ba'ng sumama?

hindi mo na kailangan ang

magtago't mahiya

hindi mo na kailangan ang

humanap ng iba

kalimutan na muna

ang lahat ng problema

huminga ka ng malalim at tayo'y lalarga na

handa na ba'ng gumala?

ang daming bawal sa mundo

sinasakal nila tayo

buksan ang puso at isipan

paliparin ang kamalayan

masdan mo ang aking mata

di mo ba nakikita

ako lumilipad at nasa alapaap na

gusto mo ba'ng sumama?

tara na!

These days, I’m over trying too hard. Back then I was all business, robot-like. I never, or rarely, got a chance to enjoy life. Now, I leave all those burdens behind. By my 3^rd year in high school, and here in UP, I’ve learned that I don’t need to prove myself anymore. I’m still focused on studying and all, I just enjoy it more. I celebrate every A paper, but also laugh at myself for flunking that oh-so-instant-perfect long test. I give my all when I play basketball or spar in arnis, rejoice at every good play, and just smile at my every wrong move J. With my newfound freedom, it’s like I have a new lease in life, a little more bounce in my step. And why not? Life is meant to be experienced. Live a little.
Hope – Twista

I wish the way I was living could stop, serving rocks,

Knowing the cops is hot when I'm on the block, And I

Wish my brother woulda made bail,

So I won't have to travel 6 hours to see him in jail, And I

Wish that my grandmother wasn't sick,

Or that we would just come up on some stacks and hit a lick, And I (I wish)

Wish my homies wouldn't have to suffer,

When the streets get the upper had on us and we lose a brother, And I

Wish I could go deep in a zone,

And lift the spirits of the world with the words with in this song, And I (I wish)

Wish I could teach a could teach a soul to fly,

Take away the pain out cha hands and help you hold them hi, And I

wish my hommie butch was still alive and on the

day of his death we had never took that ride

And I wish that God could protect us from the wrong so that all the soldiers were sent overseas come home and uh

We will never break, though they devistate, we shall motivate,

And we gotta pray, all we got is faith.

Instead of thinking about who gonna die to day,

The Lord is gonna help you feel better, so you ain't gotta cry today.

Sit at the light so long,

And then we gotta move straight forward, cuz we fight so strong,

So when right go wrong,

Just say a little prayer, get ya money man, life goes on!!!

Let's HOPE!

[CHORUS]

Cuz I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today,

Take this music and use it

Let it take you away,

And be hopeful, hopeful and he'll make a way

I know it ain't easy but that's okay.

Cuz we hopeful!

I wish that you could show some love,

Instead of hatin so much when you see some other people commin up (I wish)

I wish I could teach the world to sing,

Watch the music and have 'em trippin of the joy I bring,

I wish that we could hold hands,

Listen instead of dissin lessons from a grown man, And I (I wish)

Wish the families that lack, but got love, get some stacks

Brand new shack and a lack that's on dubs, And I

Wish we could keep achieving wonders,

See the vision of the world through the eyes of Stevie Wonder, (you feel me) (I wish)

And I hope all the kids eat,

And don't nobody in my family see six feet, (ya dig)

I hope them mothers stand strong,

You can make it whether you wit him or your mans gone, And I (I wish)

Wish I could give every celly some commissary,

And the po po bring the heat on them priest like they did R. Kelly, And I

Wish that DOC could scream again

And bullets could reverse so Pac and Biggie breath again,(I wish)

Then one day they could speak again,

I wish that we only saw good news every time we look at CNN,

I wish we could never get the blues

Wish I could bring back the people that died at E2

I wish that we could walk a path, stay doin the right thing

Hustle hard so the kids maintain the right thing

Let's HOPE

[CHORUS]

Wish the earth wasn't so apocalyptic,

I try to spread my message to the world the best way I can give it,

We can make it always be optimistic

If you don't listen gotta live my life the best way I can live it,

I pray for justice when we go to court,

Wish it was all good so the country never even went to war,

Why can't we kick it and just get em on,

And in the famous words of Mr. King "Why can't we all just get along",

Hope we can find a better way to shop in peace, And I

Hope we find a better way to cop for keys, And I

Wish everybody would just stop and freeze,

And ask way are we fulfillin these downfalls and prophecies,

You can be wrong if it's YOU doubting,

With the faith of a mustard seed you can move mountains,

And only the heavenly father can ease the hurt,

Just let it go and keep prayin on your knees in church!!

And let's HOPE

[Chorus] 2x

Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve always wanted to change the world. You know, the “When I grow up I wanna be really rich and powerful so that I can make all the bad people go away and we can live happily ever after amen.” The only problem is… I don’t really know how. I don’t have any master plan for world peace yet. But I do know that I went to Ateneo and UP for a reason. I know that I was, and still am, given the best education in the land because I know that I have a small but significant role. It could be through being a doctor, a lawyer, a teacher, or even a politician, I don’t know. I just know, and I just hope, that I can help make this world a better place.
