Lyrics to Child Of The Philippines
Child Of The Philippines Video:
“This song right here is going out to all my Filipinos going through the struggle. You may feel like nobody sees you, but Aquino's got your back… now listen up!”

Once upon a time I was a little prince.
Anything I wanted, anything I wished.
But money can burn you and it won't set you free.
Though my friends stuck around.
Hey, I knew that I had to leave.

All around the land, I see hatred and fear.
Now where's the kindness? Where now my dear?
Can our country be healed? - Can it change and be strong?
Will the answers come soon?
Ha! We have waited so long.

I am a child of the Philippines.
From Calayan to Lake Cebu.
And I --- I'm a young man.
A young man in a hurry.

But you – you know that those miracles,
You know that those miracles,
You know those miracles,
They might --- come true.

“I see yah Imelda!”

“Hey, Aquino!”

“Girl you better bring that pretty face over here, ‘cause you make me wanna, you make me wanna…”

Dream a little dream with a girl just like you.

It's not a dream, and you know that it's good.

When you walked in the room, well I had to say yeah –
And with you by my side, uh – well I know we'll get far.

Anything you want, everything you do.
Love is gonna change – bad into good.

We have waited so long, now a change will come soon.
And if you put me in charge.. Hey! That's what I'll do.

“Help me out fellas…”

I am a child of the Philippines.
From Calayan to Lake Cebu.
And this – this is our land.
A land that's in a hurry.

But you - know that those miracles,
You know that those miracles,
You know those miracles,
They might --- come true.

“I think they can come true. We can educate our children! We can unionize our workers. We can…

Give our people a break.

“Com'om, let's give our people a break.”

You say!

Give our people a break.

“Com'om, let's give our people a break.”

Let me hear it!

Give our people a break.

Let me hear it! Give our people a break.

You say!

Give our people a break.

Just give them a break.

“Yeah!”
