Curtismith
Payong Kaibigan
[Verse 1: Noel Cabangon]
Bata ka pa at may pagkakataon
Na darating sa buhay mo
Hawak mo ang panahon
Ikaw ang gagawa ng bukas mo
Hanapin mo kung anong nais mo
Sundan mo'ng bituin ng buhay mo
Bawat daan ay may panganib
H'wag kang susuko at di padadaig
Pagkat ...
Kaya mo 'yan, kaya mo 'yan
Kaya mo 'yan, kaya mo 'yan
Kaya mong sumuong sa daluyong
Kaya mong harapin ang bawat hamon
Kaya mo 'yan
[Verse 2: Curtismith]
But I'm still feeling so alone
Still feel like a kid and I wonder if it shows
God can get a gift when I listen to my soul but I feel so unequipped as I'm out here on my own
I've been out here getting stoned
Haters throwing sticks while I got a bag of bones
I can feel a shift and I come with what I know
But I fear that I might slip to a story never told
There's still so much that I don't know
I can feel my treasure that is deeper than the gold but I'm falling for the pleasures that help silence all the woes while surrounded with the pressures making diamonds from the coals
I don't ever wanna fold
But my heart is getting cold
I dunno how this unfolds but I'm never gonna choke as I'm following my goals
[Verse 3: Noel Cabangon]
H'wag kang matakot na magkamali
Magtiwala ka sa 'yong sarili
Tibayan mo ang iyong dibdib
Sadyang maraming hamon sa paligid
H'wag mong sayangin ang buhay mo
'Di ka nag-iisa sa mundo
Magmalasakit sa kapwa mo
Makibagay ka at gawin ang wasto
[Verse 4: Curtismith]
I never thought the days and nights were getting harder
A very great distance with it only getting farther
To hear the immense night more immense without her
To try to be a man without learning from a father
I have the keys but I can't stick it in the engine
Its hard to do but its so easy to tell them
I've never really started the problems of my soul I guess its a story that I can never unfold
I just really need a hand that I can hold and vent to another person have it never being told
But that's why life kinda funny
They took away my dad and they sent away my mommy
Imprisoned my other half
Deep inside a chamber no wonder why the weekends have turned me to Mr. eager
I ain't stupid but I ain't passing either
I know to keep from - only when I'm getting higher
I need an inspiration all I want is to inspire
A far away land resides the woman I desire
The people I looked up to are being frowned upon
Guess I was trying to live life without my glasses on
God wanted to help I wanted independence
This ain't the path I thought that was intended
I'm standing on a plate I feel the pressure that's beneath me I know the wrong step will finally have the monsters eat me
[Verse 5: Noel Cabangon & Curtismith]
Kaya mo 'yan, kaya mo 'yan
Kaya mo 'yan, kaya mo 'yan
Kaya mong sumuong sa daluyong
Kaya mong harapin ang bawat hamon
Kaya mo 'yan
I don't ever wanna fold
But my heart is getting cold
I dunno how this unfolds but I'm never gonna choke as I'm following my goals (2X)
