lyrics

Verse 1 (Jedi):
J-E-D-I Pinoy I identify
Filipino blood but our land got colonized
Red, blue, & yellow always the colors
Of the motherland I gotta trust in my struggle

Datu Lapu Lapu, Gabriela Silang
My culture, my browness you can smell in this song
Ang Pilipinas, Oo bayan ko
Philippine islands gots tp represent my home

I was born on the west coast I know where I came from
3 stars in the sky, 8 rays of the sun
Mindinao is in my heart still livin' on
Even though our people been fightin' for so long

Im not even gonna front I came from the ghetto
Hindi ako kano ako ay Pilipino
Dumudugo ako para sa ating bayan
Naniniwala ako sa kalayaan

Verse 2 (Intellect):
Im a F-I-L-I-P-I-N-O
It's like Lapu Lapu swingin' a bolo
In the motherland, the peoples' struggles are foresaken
Lives taken people power masses awaken

Im a lost soul under the sun
400 years of struggle you can't compare to none
From the rice terraces to the village of Surigao
My name tounge is twisted but my heart is in Mindinao

Cuttin' me deep with Bonifacio's sword
Kicked Spain out fought the wars on Philippines shores
Knowin' in life you gotta do what you gotta do
Cuz' back home it's the struggle and ain't shit new

Ang Pilipinas ay aking tahanan hanggang sa kamatayan
Sobra na ang problema sa ating bayan
7,100 islands man we goin' strong
Uniting all the youth the people's movin' on!
