yellow philippines - david dimaguila lyrics

[intro: teacher & students]
itaas ang atin kamay
at sabay sabay natin bigkasin
ang panatang makabayan

panatang makabayan:
iniibig ko ang pilipinas
ito ang aking lupang sinilangan
ito ang tahanan ng aking lahi
ako’y kanyang kinukupkop at tinutulungan
upang maging malakas, malig-ya at kapakipakinabang
bilang ganti ay diringgin ko ang payo ng aking mga magulang
susundin ko ang mga tuntunin ng aking paaralan
tutuparin ko ang mga tungkulin
ng isang mamamayang makabayan at masunurin sa batas

[chorus]
if you filipino
let me know
put your hands up
all of my filipinas
put your hands up
put your hands up
get em high
that’s filipino pride
right?

if you filipino
let me know
put your hands up
all of my filipinas
put your hands up
put your hands up
reach for the sky
show em you afraid to die

[verse 1]
(yo)
i’m a filipino
asian negro
every meal i eat rice by the kilo
every day i steal some other guy’s stilo
(what?)
but keep it on the d-low
i’m a fraud
i’m a fake
i’m a fool
i’m a flake
say it is
what it is
when i know that it ain’t
and you know what i hate?
that i see in my own face?
there’s so little trace of my own race

could be chinese
or spanish
some kinda hispanic
skin so dark
could be speaking arabic
but dang it
i guess that’s the fate
(of what?)
of a country that’s been done raped
and raped so many times now that i lost count
(ey)
and maybe you don’t know what i’m talking about
(ey)
but the fact remains
there’s no doubt
(ey)
pick up a history book and find out
your 8th great grandfather
was a conquistador
and your great grandmother
was hirohito’s wh-r-
how your other grandmother
put her face to the floor
kissed the feet of uncle sam
when he kicked in her door
so before you profess
you’re pinoy to the death
do you even understand the heart that’s beating in your chest?
let me guess
there’s picture of rodrigo on your desktop?
ok mr. filipino
you can put your hands up
fool

[chorus]
if you filipino
let me know
put your hands up
all of my filipinas
put your hands up
put your hands up
get em high
that’s filipino pride
right?

if you filipino
let me know
put your hands up
all of my filipinas
put your hands up
put your hands up
reach for the sky
show em you afraid to die

[verse 2]
(yo)
you a filipina
island diva
every night another round of tequila
bottoms up
until the whole club see ya
till maria christina turns into mia khalifa
you got the moves
some dudes upload you to youtube
you’ll go viral tomorrow
the stupid things you do
you’re so pretty
but dang what a pity
now the whole world think
that filipinas are filthy
and easy

that’s word to your mother
kiss her tell her you love her
then throw up in the gutter
do you think she’s proud of ya?
and your foreigner lover?
he says you a stunner
you act like an uckers
i guess you’re both suckers
money is all you want and
you’ll sell your body for some
listen
money won’t solve your problems
but you think it will
so you’d give anything
you even give yourself up
for that wedding ring
or that job
that they said you could get overseas
making the dollars will make life a breeze
and you so gullible ready to leave
but please
tell me how does that work?
(yo?)
just for that work?
(yo?)
you gonna work and get worked?
is it worth
looking after some other woman’s kids
while your own
back at home
wonder where their mother is?
you send salary to family
and think their poverty will stop?
that ofw mentality says put your hands up
slave

[chorus]
if you filipino
let me know
put your hands up
all of my filipinas
put your hands up
put your hands up
get em high
that’s filipino pride
right?

if you filipino
let me know
put your hands up
all of my filipinas
put your hands up
put your hands up
reach for the sky
show em you afraid to die

[break: students]
paglilingkuran ko ang aking bayan
nang walang pag-iimbot at ng buong katapatan
sisikapin kong maging isang tunay na pilipino
sa isip, sa salita, at sa gawa

[verse 3]
if you come to manila
take a plane and fly
and when you arrive
and you wait in line at
n a i a
you’ll see this sign say
m a b u (to the) h a y
(hey)
“mabuhay”
it kinda means “long life”
or “live long”
or just…
“be alive”
(heh)
you see the mindset?
what those words imply?
on the low yo
filipinos are so scared to die
but why?
“people power”
now this country is ours
it’s just such a shame
now it’s a country of cowards
with no self respect
and so quick to forget
every century spent
being slaves
subject to all kinds of threats
all those years oppressed
all our rights suppressed
we still ain’t progressed
we still genuflect to dictators
yet we still get upset
when the world don’t respect us
how can you not see?
the philippines is like the wild west
we eject one oppressor
elect the next
(sheesh)
all our leaders come with defects
can we recheck what that sheet says?
how could so many people vote for this d-head?
how can so many people jump to his defence?
2019, 20,00 people dead
20 million others can’t afford a piece of bread
so far into debt
just check the internet
now to buy a chilli pepper
have to write a cheque
now he selling us to china
did we lose a bet?
those are filipino islands
this ain’t tibet
all the tears
blood and sweat
used to win our freedom
it didn’t happen just so we could cower
bend over and let another foreign power take what’s ours
and need to protect
i ain’t tryna speak some mandarin dialect
i object!
wait a sec
what a joke
the connect
bending over is kosher
when mocha’s the asec
i spoke a little while
with my boy back in the ‘jects
he told me that mostly
philippine’s known for s-x
like
red lights
bad traffic
and cheap women
we go to church a lot
but keep sinning
no kidding
police can’t stop the drug dealing
but they do k!ll a lot
lost the plot
they keep k!lling
god willing
maybe we won’t always be this way
one day
maybe we can take all of the shame away
maybe one day
we’ll stand up and say
“no we’re not gonna put our hands up today”
and i pray
for that bravery this nation needs
coz
filipino cowardice is a disease
how can we let these evil people just
do as they please?
better to die on your feet
than to live on your knees (boy!)

[outro]
i’m just playing philippines
you know i love you
