Child Of The Philippines

“This song right here is going out to all my Filipinos going through the struggle. You may feel like nobody sees you, but Aquino's got your back… now listen up!”

Once upon a time I was a little prince
Anything I wanted, anything I wished
But money can burn you and it won't set you free
Though my friends stuck around
Hey, I knew that I had to leave.

All around the land, I see hatred and fear
Now where's the kindness? Where now my dear?
Can our country be healed? - Can it change and be strong?
Will the answers come soon?
Ha! We have waited so long.

I am a child of the Philippines
From Calayan to Lake Cebu
And I --- I'm a young man
A young man in a hurry.

But you – you know that those miracles
You know that those miracles
You know those miracles
They might --- come true.

“I see yah Imelda!”

“Hey, Aquino!”

“Girl you better bring that pretty face over here, ‘cause you make me wanna, you make me wanna…”

Dream a little dream with a girl just like you.

It's not a dream, and you know that it's good.

When you walked in the room, well I had to say yeah
And with you by my side, uh well I know we'll get far.

Anything you want, everything you do
Love is gonna change – bad into good.

We have waited so long, now a change will come soon
And if you put me in charge.. Hey! That's what I'll do.

“Help me out fellas…”

I am a child of the Philippines
From Calayan to Lake Cebu
And this this is our land
A land that's in a hurry.

But you know that those miracles
You know that those miracles
You know those miracles
They might come true.

“I think they can come true
We can educate our children!
We can unionize our workers
We can…

Give our people a break
“Com'om, let's give our people a break”
You say!
Give our people a break
“Com'om, let's give our people a break”
Let me hear it!
Give our people a break
Let me hear it! Give our people a break
You say!
Give our people a break
Just give them a break
“Yeah!”
