Sb19 • From “Simula at Wakas”
What is the meaning of DAM Lyrics from Simula at Wakas?
John Paulo Nase, Joshua Daniel Nase, and Simon Servida write about accepting responsibility in challenging times. They ask ‘What are your feet for if you can’t stand on your own?’ The lyricists express an unyielding will to persist through any obstacle.
Woo This Is UglyWoo, this is ugly.
But Alam Mo Naman That Me Likey Then AgainBut you already know that I like it, then again.
Woo ’cause I’m IcyWoo, ’cause I’m icy.
Kahit Na Ano Pa ‘yan Come Bite MeNo matter what it is, come bite me.
What’cha Gonna Do Do ‘pag May DumatingWhat’re you gonna do when it comes?
Na Maitim Na Ulap Ako KikiliginWhen dark clouds arrive, I’ll get a thrill.
Kung Tutok Sa Positibo Ay Baka Lang Ma-praningIf I focus only on the positive, I might just go crazy.
Kase ‘pag Reyalidad Na Ang Harang Agad Na Gising‘Cause when reality is the barrier, I wake up instantly.
Now Son Anong PakiramdamNow son, what does it feel like?
Pumanhik Sa Walang Hanggang HagdanTo climb an endless staircase?
‘di Pa Sa Padamdam Ang KatapusanThe exclamation point isn’t the end.
Ng Lalat Ng ‘yong SinimulanOf everything you’ve started.
Dito Sa’king Depot Lahat TiniponI’ve gathered everything here in my depot.
Kahit ‘nong Digmaan I Doubt ThatEven during the war, I doubt that.
‘di Ko Kayang TagusanI couldn’t break through.
Tanggap Ko Nang Kamalasan Ay Naka-abangI’ve accepted that bad luck’s waiting for me.
Kita Ba Sa’king Mga MataCan you see it in my eyes?
Ang Mga Bagay Na Hindi Mo NakikitaThe things that you can’t see.
Ang Kalawakan ‘pag Ako’y NangarapThe vast universe when I dream.
Kasukdulan Ma’y ‘di PatitinagEven at the peak, I won’t be shaken.
Heto Na Heto Na Bunga Ng Mga HirayaHere it is, here it is, the fruit of my imagination.
Bago Ko Pakawalan ‘sang KatanunganBefore I let go of one question.
Anong Pakiramdam Anong PakiramdamWhat does it feel like? What does it feel like?
Bakit Ba Nagka-gan’toWhy did it turn out like this?
Ang Daming TuksoThere’re so many temptations.
Bawat Hakbang Laging May Gulo Pagka-malasEvery step there’s always trouble and misfortune.
Ba’t Ba Ba’t BaWhy is it? Why is it?
‘di Ko Ugaling Tumakbo Dito Lang AkoIt’s not my habit to run, I’m staying right here.
Kasalanan Kong Lahat Ng ‘toAll of this is my fault.
‘lang Humpay Sa ‘pag GustoThere’s no end to this desire.
Keep Throwin’ Your Two CentsKeep throwin’ your two cents.
I’m All Ears With Two HandsI’m all ears with two hands.
‘wag Niyo ‘kong HamuninDon’t you dare challenge me.
‘ge Ang Magsiga SusunuginGo ahead, whoever starts the fire’ll get burned.
Life’s A Bliss ’cause I’m The Great The BestLife’s a bliss ’cause I’m the great, the best.
Pessimist And Y’all Cannot ContestA pessimist, and y’all can’t contest.
Praises Don’t Excite Me Not The FaintestPraises don’t excite me, not in the slightest.
Gossip Won’t Budge This EverestGossip won’t budge this Everest.
Para Sa’n Pa ‘yong Mga PaaWhat’re those feet for?
Kung ‘di Naman Kaya Tumayong Mag-isaIf you can’t even stand on your own?
Pa’no Hahawakan Ang PangarapHow’re you gonna hold onto the dream?
Kung Maduduwag Ka Lang Sa PahamakIf you’re just gonna be a coward in the face of danger?
Heto Na Heto NaHere it is, here it is.
Kailangan Mong ManiwalaYou’ve got to believe.
Pa’no Mo Wawakasan Ang ‘di SinimulanHow’re you gonna end what you haven’t started?
Mananatili Kang Walang Alam Sa PakiramdamYou’ll remain clueless about how it feels.
Bakit Ba Nagka-gan’toWhy did it turn out like this?
Ang Daming TuksoThere’re so many temptations.
Bawat Hakbang Laging May Gulo Pagka-malasEvery step there’s always trouble and misfortune.
Ba’t Ba Ba’t BaWhy is it? Why is it?
‘di Ko Ugaling Tumakbo Dito Lang AkoIt’s not my habit to run, I’m staying right here.
Kasalanan Kong Lahat Ng ‘toAll of this is my fault.
‘lang Humpay Sa ‘pag GustoThere’s no end to this desire.
Ang Lahat Ay May DahilanEverything has a reason.
‘wa KananLeft and right.
Sige Lang Sa PaghakbangJust keep on stepping forward.
Pa’no Ba Higitan Ang Sagad NaHow do I surpass what’s already at its limit?
Kung Ito Na Ang WakasIf this is already the end?
Sa’n Ba NagsimulaWhere did it begin?
Heto Na Heto Na Heto Na Heto Na AaahHere it is, here it is, here it is, here it is, ah!
Bakit Ba Nagka-gan’toWhy did it turn out like this?
Ang Daming TuksoThere’re so many temptations.
Bawat Hakbang Laging May Gulo Pagka-malasEvery step there’s always trouble and misfortune.
‘di Ko Ugaling Tumakbo Dito Lang AkoIt’s not my habit to run, I’m staying right here.
Kasalanan Kong Lahat Ng ‘toAll of this is my fault.
