Islands of Resilience

[Verse] Woke up in the archipelago, 7,641 dreams deep Palms swayin', typhoons whisperin', secrets they keep Metro Manila hustle, jeepneys playin' hopscotch In these streets, just tryna keep your soul untouched [Verse 2] Cebu cakes and Sinulog beats, nights never hush Lechon crisp, 'bout that flavor, not in no rush Mindanao tremors, yet roots holdin’ tight Eyes on the horizon, future so bright [Chorus] From Luzon to Visayas, Mindanao strong Pride in the culture, been here all along Batshit hustlers, grind never wrong Singin' with the islands, our ancestral song [Bridge] Oh, the pearls in the deep, scuba dive to 'em keys Bamboo whispers in the breeze, stories they tease Rice fields like green dreams, mountains stand tall In the heart of P.I., we ain't never gon' fall [Verse 3] Sari-sari stores, life’s bite-sized glory Pagoda fiesta, each barrio with a story Spit knowledge in the alleyways, karinderia feast From the slums to the beaches, pride can't be ceased [Chorus] From Luzon to Visayas, Mindanao strong Pride in the culture, been here all along Batshit hustlers, grind never wrong Singin' with the islands, our ancestral song
