KalyeThe Street.
Dito sa kalyeng ito inalay luha at dasalRight here on this street, we’ve offered our tears and prayers.
Diwa’y namulat sa liwanag katotohanan ang naging sandataOur spirits woke to the light, and truth became our weapon.
Lumipas man ilang henerasyon hanggang ngayon dito pa rin nagtitiponThough many generations have passed, we’re still gathering here today.
Isigaw mo lang ang dinaramdam manindigan tayong buong tapangJust shout out what you’re feeling, let’s stand up with all our courage.
Isigaw mo lang lahat ng galit mo sama-sama tayo sa pagtindigJust shout out all your anger, we’re standing up together.
OhOh.
Dito sa kalyeng ito umiikot ang buong mundoRight here on this street, the whole world turns.
Naghihintay nagbabantay sa kalsada lahat tayo’y pantay-pantay kaya’tWaiting and watching on the road, where we’re all equal, so,
Isigaw mo lang ang dinaramdam manindigan tayong buong tapangJust shout out what you’re feeling, let’s stand up with all our courage.
Isigaw mo lang lahat ng galit mo sama-sama tayo sa pagtindigJust shout out all your anger, we’re standing up together.
OhOh.
Tama na sobra na hindi na tamaEnough is enough, it’s just not right anymore.
Paulit-ulit lang baliin na natinIt just keeps repeating, so let’s break the cycle.
‘Di magpapaloko ‘di tayo hihintoWe won’t be fooled, we won’t stop.
Eto ang laging sagot dapat may managotThis is always the answer: someone must be held accountable.
Isigaw mo lang ang dinaramdam manindigan tayong buong tapangJust shout out what you’re feeling, let’s stand up with all our courage.
Isigaw mo lang lahat ng galit mo sama-sama tayo sa pagtindigJust shout out all your anger, we’re standing up together.
OhOh.
Dito sa kalyeng ito may bago nang mga mukhaRight here on this street, there are new faces now.
Dito sa kalyeng ito sisibol ang pag-asaRight here on this street, hope will begin to bloom.
