Verse 1:
I'm hearin people say that apathy's the reason for a death of a nation
I'll be damned if I watch and let that happen to us
We can play our parts alone from individual locations
But united we can stand to go and weather the floods
We can spend our time watchin other people takin action
Or be proactive, lend a helping hand
To all the victims who lost their homes and nearly all of their possessions
From a storm much greater than man
You could extend your arm and you'll be sure to find a connection
We can try and find the bayani inside us for hope
Coz I can't, and won't, leave it up to those for election
In 2010 who will stoop to any level for votes
Coz this is it -- this is our time, this is our moment
To come together, make an effort in whatever we do
Lack of concern plus indifference will never make a difference
I can only hope you find the bayani in you
Chorus:
For all the people that's affected, things can only look up
There's a bayani in them, there's a bayani in us
For all donations and the volunteers breaking their backs
There's a bayani in this, there's a bayani in that
For everybody spreading the word all over the world
There's a bayani in him, there's a bayani in her
For everybody wondering on what it is they can do
There's a bayani in me, and a bayani in you
Verse 2:
You could go a long way, this a place where a meal just costs a dollar
Just imagine how much people you could feed
We could donate the clothes that we ain't wearin, volunteer a couple hours
Help a family get back up on their feet
Look inside, answer the call, lessons from history that taught us all
United for a cause will never see defeat,
The movement gains momentum, with momentum and the movement never falls
Plus the view is better standing from your seat
I know there'll be a struggle, need the muscles -- they won't go without a fight
But it's a battle I believe that CAN be won
No matter who, when, where you are I believe we can unite
For the blue, red, white, three stars and a sun
The power is in our hands to make a change if we dare
Let's take the time to show them cowards how it's supposed to be done,
And for my final message here's a little something to share:
Let's not just watch them be batanis, we know we can be one
Repeat chorus
