LOCO Meaning & Lyrics (Jeff Grecia | Nik Makino)
The lyricists draft a story of coping with betrayal and emotional pain. A key line notes, ‘My head is feeling shattered too, the buzz is only getting deeper.’ Jeff Grecia and his partner describe fake friends and a cracked heart with raw honesty.
LOCOCRAZY
Chorus: 2xChorus: (Repeated twice)
Malapit nang ma locoI’m on the verge of losing my mind,
Puro nalang galitall I feel is this anger.
Basag na rin sa cocoMy head is feeling shattered too,
Amat lumalalimthe buzz is only getting deeper.
May lamat na yung pusoMy heart is already cracked,
Dahil sa nakaraanbecause of everything in my past.
Damang dama ko yung aralI can really feel the lesson now,
Noong maramdamannow that I’ve truly felt the pain.
Verse IVerse I
Wag kang mainipinDon’t be so impatient,
Dapat lagi mong isipinyou should always keep in mind,
Na darating ang para sayothat what’s meant for you will eventually come.
Bilog ang mundoThe world keeps on turning,
May oras ang pag lagoand there’s a right time for everyone to grow.
Wag kang maniniwala sa sinasabiDon’t believe everything you hear,
Lalo kung puro negatiboespecially if it’s all just negative energy.
Madaming p#ssy na umaasta na toughThere are plenty of ‘cowards’ acting tough,
Yung angas kita mo sa tunay o panggapbut you can see who’s real and who’s just a fake.
Yung doobie umiikot bawat kada puffThe ‘joint’ goes around with every single puff.
YeahYeah.
Chorus:Chorus:
Malapit nang ma locoI’m on the verge of losing my mind,
Puro nalang galitall I feel is this anger.
Basag na rin sa cocoMy head is feeling shattered too,
Amat lumalalimthe buzz is only getting deeper.
May lamat na yung pusoMy heart is already cracked,
Dahil sa nakaraanbecause of everything in my past.
Damang dama ko yung aralI can really feel the lesson now,
Noong maramdamannow that I’ve truly felt the pain.
Verse IIVerse II
N. I. Cheeeese!N. I. Cheeeese!
Ako laging na loloco locoI’m always being played for a fool,
Kase laging tumotodo todobecause I always give my absolute all.
Ang bilis mag tiwala sa nakakasama koI’m too quick to trust the people I’m with,
Kaya di ko napapansin silay nag loloco oh oh ohh ohh ohhso I don’t even notice when they’re tricking me.
Kasalanan ko ba kung naging mabait (woah)Is it my fault for being too kind?
Pinipili ko naman kung silay palapitI try to choose carefully who I let get close,
Pero balewala na pag silay nakampantebut it means nothing once they start to feel comfortable.
Kaya di na tulad dati di kana importanteSo it’s not like before, you’re not important to me anymore.
Kaya diretso lang wag mo nang balikanJust keep moving forward and don’t look back,
Wag mo nang bibigyan ng oras kase masasayang lang mag focus ka nalang sa kung ano ang meron ka at mahalaga jandon’t give it any more time because it’ll be wasted; just focus on what you have and what’s truly important.
Sila ay nasabik gusto pang bumalikNow they’re eager and they want to come back,
Pag nag kita nalang tayo kunan mo ng picbut if we run into each other, just take a picture and go.
Kase negatibong enerhiyaBecause with all this negative energy,
Di na pwede repa tunay lang kasamawe’re done, brother; I’m only keeping the real ones around.
Chorus:Chorus:
Malapit nang ma locoI’m on the verge of losing my mind,
Puro nalang galitall I feel is this anger.
Basag na rin sa cocoMy head is feeling shattered too,
Amat lumalalimthe buzz is only getting deeper.

Dahil sa nakaraanbecause of everything in my past.
Damang dama ko yung aralI can really feel the lesson now,
Noong maramdamannow that I’ve truly felt the pain.
