Black Eyed Peas "The Apl Song" lyrics

The Apl Song

Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayoAko'y maydala dalang, balita galing sa bayan koNais kong ipamahagi ang mga kuentoAng manga pangyayaring nagaganapSa lupang pinangako

Every place got a ghetto this is my versionCheck it outListen closely yo, I got a story to tellA version of my ghetto where life felt for real

Some would call it hell, but to me it was heavenGod gave me the grace, amazin' ways of livingHow would you feel if you had to catch your meal?Build a hut to live and to eat and chill in

Having to pump the water outta the groundThe way we put it down utilizing what is aroundLike land for farming, river for fishingEveryone helpin' each other whenever they canWe makin' it happen, from nothin' to somethin'That's how we be survivin' back in my homeland

Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayoAko'y maydala dalang, balita galing sa bayan koNais kong ipamahagi ang mga kuentoAng manga pangyayaring nagaganapSa lupang pinangako

Yo, its been a while butI been back home to my homeland(Check it out)To see what's going on

Man it feels good to be back at homeAnd it's been a decade, on the journey all aloneI was fourteen when I first left PhilippinesI've been away half my life, but it felt like a dayTo be next to my mom with her home cooked meal

Meant I felt complete, my emotions I feelNow life has changed for me in the U.SBut back at home man, life was a messI guess sometimes life's stresses gets you downOn your knees, oh brother, I wish I could have helped you out

Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayoAko'y maydala dalang, balita galing sa bayan koNais kong ipamahagi ang mga kuentoAng manga pangyayaring nagaganapSa lupang pinangako
