No, they do not restrain themselves and stay silent—
In fact, they openly voice out their sentiments.
Tho some stay blind whilst many have opened their eyes
Resilient Filipinos are tired, regardless of their sides.
Troubled in the comforts of their respective homes;
Waking up to a surge of cases—How exciting!
They are a genie waiting for their wishes to be granted
Wishing for a spell that will completely set them free
Tick tock, tick tock, time is swiftly ticking
Tick tock, tick tock, this quarantine is getting boring.
When will Filipinos ever get out,
Get out of this suffocating lamp?
Wishing for a spell that will completely set them free.
