Some People Wishes To See Things Colored

I can adjust my finish line
to fit my needs.
If it's for happiness,
I'll just glide with the breeze.
I won't compete with your pace;
I'll choose my own peace.
You can win it all.
I'll stick to what my heart fee…

I would never compromise
what I hold dear in my heart.
What better prize could there be
than receiving your warm hug?
Every breath feels so boring
when distance makes us apart.
Joy would not be what it is
witho…

Daming sagabal sa daan,
pero tutuloy,
kahit alam nang masusugatan.
Sugal sa tamang paraan.
Pangarap ng pusong
handang kayanin ng katawan.
Kapag dasal n'yo ang tangan,
lahat ng takot
at pangamba'y nagiging …

Stuck on a path
that will only lead to
failure or success.
Neither will be good
since I’ve already been drowned
in emptiness.
Buried in hourglass
that shrouds my sight
and keeps me from happiness.

Pang-unawa,
Minsan kulang, mas madalas wala.
Sa mundong uso ang kanya-kanya.
Biyaya ang mayroong pamilyang
palaging sa’ti’y nagpaparaya.

To greet the morning
with our distinctive giggles.
To subdue the night
with our lively sparkles.
To end the day,
filling each other's weaknesses.
And remain motivated to
do more wonders.

Di matatabunan ng kontrobersiya
ang kanilang pusong nagsasakripisyo.
Sa larangang nagmumulat ng konsensya
minsa’y pagdadamutan pa ng saludo.
Dedikadong gumabay at umunawa
kahit pa minsa’y kulang sa benipisyo.…

Natatakot sa
kahihinatnan ng mundo.
Kung kabi-kabilaan na
halos ang gulo.
At parang malabo sa
tanaw magkasundo.
Ano na nga bang
isasahog ko sa munggo?

Everything looks too much like a lie.
So I hide, I cry, I say goodbyes.
A cocoon that doesn’t want to fly.
Until you came and gave a smile.
Now, I'm not afraid of the retries.
Still fragile, but for you, I’ll…

Puro negatibong sagot
sa mga tanong na “bakit?”.
Dating malaya sa poot
ngayo’y galit ang nalapit.
Mundong nabagal ang ikot
kapag tangan mo ang sakit.
Pangambang magpapalungkot
hanggang mawala …

The first day of the month
welcomes a different tune.
A gift of cold nights,
a longer visit by the moon.
A promise of joy
with a glimpse of hope in full bloom.
A chance to rewrite
and conquer the days that brin…

May saya sa pagsalubong sa
panibagong Buwan.
Tila bagong biling kwadernong,
nakasasabik sulatan.
Bagong siglang haraping muli,
mga kabiguan.
Sisimulan ang bagong umagang
may ngiti’t
nakatingin sa ati…

When rainbows
seem too dull and faded.
Prayers and tears will
prevent our hearts
from becoming clouded.
For everything
is blurred by hatred.
It is our choices,
not the pain,
that caused us to be blind…

A blessed Sunday heals.
It’s our chance to take a break
from the exhausting dreams.
The joy from homemade meals.
A brief glimpse into
what we truly want to achieve.

I often realize
that I don't need to
please everybody.
But just thinking about that
feeds my pride
and makes me feel lonely.
