Mang Berto who got in from the corner of the street
and this is the start of the stories
He has an only daughter who's name is Luisa, a student
Her education is being worked hard on to escape poverty
One night on March, around 8 o'clock
*Mang Berto went home early
Carrying a plastic of *Pancit and a sponge cake
joyful even at rare occasions
Tomorrow she will graduate on the course that she took
his most beloved daughter Luisa
There was supposedly a new journey for the both of them
however, is our community really filled with bad luck?
Because she was found dead under the bridge
Luisa's dreams were also washed away

When we passed by Quezon Avenue, *ate Marilou got in
Twenty four years old, no education attained, her child is in ICU
Once the clock ticks at 11pm, she's filled with makeup
She's on the sidewalk and waving over the cars
Even two forties she will grab it, to use the money to buy medicine
So she can cure his only son, even just one day extension of her child's life
Tomorrow night there has been a lot of months she's been doing this
She has found nothing, she can't do anything
You can tell on her face the struggles but her small child is irreplaceable
Even if she's aware that she's infected with disease
Just for her child, she will do it with eyes closed

There's a kid on the foot-board of the jeep
Six years old, his name is Benito
All day he had been working
to shine shoes and to recycle bottles and newspapers
just so his three siblings can eat
Five, four, two year olds and a baby are a weight on his shoulders already
The responsibilities of his father were transferred when he got in jail
and their mother abandoned them
He tried to prevent his mom from going but she shoved him away
Until the youngest sibling got sick and in the wagon,
his breathing stopped
Today he can't seem to realize, whatever it is the future has for Benito
he became immune because of the pain and the endings of what had happened
He's sniffing an *adhesive rugby, he got off around Malate
