Filipinos 05:02
Filipinos what have we become Don't you know that we are one I used to see a painting The rarest one that I've seen Where people carried a small house Made of bamboo and palm tree leaves We call it Bayanihan The brotherhood of all men We were a great example To every man, woman, and child But today I just can't see The painting that I used to see Where are the people who carried our brotherhood Wish they could come again Filipinos what have we become Don't you know that we are one I used to read a story About our hospitality When people came to our house We treated them as family We offered seats to strangers To the ladies and the elders We helped them cross the streets If they can't make it on their own But today I just can't see The story that I used to read Where are the people who carried our brotherhood Wish they would come again We are the people of the sun We rise when we fall And help those who can't make it on their own Because we are one Filipinos of the world The people of the sun We rise for everyone Help those who can't make it on their own Because we are one Filipinos of the world

Better Days 04:28
Listen, my child To what your father teaches you today Don't neglect it It will cover you with honor and grace If the world will say "Come join us. Get sidetracked" Then you'll hear your father say "Turn back" The world is so full of distractions Corruption you'll see them in their ways Befriends you, deceives you Pretending then leaves you On you, they throw their wastes Where are the better days Where are the better days Listen, my child Treasure my instructions to you know Listen clearly For today's the day I'm gonna show you how Cry out for wisdom Then you'll learn what I've just said And understand The world is so full of distractions Corruption you'll see them in their ways Befriends you, deceives you Pretending then leaves you On you, they throw their wastes Where are the better days Where are the better days We used to breathe a lot of air out here We used to walk on streets Unafraid of dark corners We used to feel the warmth of a mother's care But now, where are the better days The world is so full of distractions Corruption you'll see them in their ways Befriends you, deceives you Pretending then leaves you On you, they throw their wastes Where are the better days Where are the better days

Brgy. Blues 02:45
Ang akong uyoan magtinarong na daw siya Kay di na siya pasudlon sa balay sa akoang tiya Di na mosoroy maglaroy Di na musukol ug bugoy Magsumbagay Magsumbagay Magsumbagay Magsumbagay Pero kong makainum na'g Tanduay Mogawas ang pagka inday Mag Zumba dai Ang akong uyoan nidagan sa pagkapitan Kay daghan siya'g nakat-unan sa iyang bag-ong simbahan Di na mopusta ni Pacquiao Di na magrambol sa masiao Mo simba bai Mo simba bai Mo simba bai Mo simba bai Pero kung makainom na'g Tanduay Mag-una pa ang panuway Magtigbakay Magtigbakay Magtigbakay Ang akong uyoan siya na ang among kapitan Wa nay maghantak sa dalan Wa nay magsugal sa bilar Wa nay mapriso sa utang Wa nay lugar ang kawatan Magtabangay Magtabangay Magtabangay Magtabangay Pero kung makainom na'g Tanduay Ayayay

about

Andy Calope Cebu City, Philippines

Who are you?
I am a struggling musician.

What is a struggling musician?
In simple terms, it's the opposite of big-name artists. Usually, a struggling musician has a day job that he hates and when night falls, he grabs his guitar and hops around the city bars to play a tune or two in exchange for a free dinner. It's close to frustration.
