[Intro] Em7 Bm7 Em7 Bm7 Cmaj Dmaj Em7 Bm7 [Chorus]
 Em7                  Bm7
Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayo

 Em7                            Bm7
Ako'y may dala-dalang balita galing sa bayan ko

 C                  D
Nais kong ipamahagi ang mga kwento

             Em7
Ang mga pangyayaring nagaganap

         Bm7     Em7
Sa lupang pinangako
[Verse 1] Every place got a ghetto this is my version Check it out
 Em7
Listen closely yo I got a story to tell

 Bm7
A version of my ghetto where life felt for real

 Em7
Some would call it hell but to me it was heaven

 Bm7
God gave me the grace amazin' ways of living

 C
How would you feel if you had to catch your meal

 D
Build a hut to live and to eat and chill in

 Em7
Having to pump the water outta the ground

 Bm7
The way we put it down utilizing what is around

 C
Like land for farming river for fishing

 D
Everyone helpin' each other whenever they can

 Em7
We makin' it happen from nothin' to somethin'
That's how we be survivin' back in my homeland [Chorus] [Verse 2] Yo its been a while but I been back home to my homeland check it out to see what's going on
 Em7
Man it feels good to be back at home

 Bm7
And it's been a decade on the journey all alone

 Em7
I was fourteen when I first left Philippines

 Bm7
I've been away half my life but it felt like a day

 C
To be next to my mom with her home cooked meal

 D
Meant I felt complete my emotions I feel

 Em7
Now life has changed for me in the U S

 Bm7
But back at home man life was a mess

 Cmaj                                      D
I guess sometimes life's stresses gets you down on your knees

 Em7
Oh brother I wish I could have helped you out
[Chorus]
