Did you had enough with the system you've used to continuously witness?
How do you find music as a musical petition for a rightful dividend of justice? In times of poverty and injustice arises to it's maximum, people of our motherland faces an attempt to track it down through the use of manpower and unity. As we struggle thoroughly in the process of life existence, we begun to straighten the capabilities of our mind to cope up. We tend to search cures of these viruses deep down a black hole to just suppress the unavailability. Remnants of hope is slowly fading to see of unaided eye. The transition of our living are proportional to the economic sustainability and inclined statistic state. Redemption is continuously widespread, nowhere to hide and exceptions, seemingly even a silica dust can be located. Transparent liabilities tends to be visible. Dramatically, We do not let monarchies fave the way without any quantitative actions presented to prevent a huge impact of distraction, we tend to ask compensation. As a response of our protest and objection to its governance, we served them with a bitterly taste of buttered noodles with a touch of disapproval song composition " Di niyo ba naririnig?". A local version of " Do You Hear The People Sing?". An tagalized adaptation from Les Miserables that was originally the accompanying music to the final scene in which the rebellion arises and the people that take over the streets. Unbeknownst to its composers, Claude-Michel Schönberg, Alain Boublil, Jean Marc Natel and Herbert Kretzmer. Although the Filipino adaptation of the protest anthem was only the second take to the streets, it definitely has been one of the most impactful of renditions. As I myself would tend to agree with the theory of musical greatness. The adaptation was firstly being heard in the 45th Commemoration of the Declaration of Martial Law in the Philippines by dictator Ferdinand Marcos 4 years from now.
The current version of the song was sang by some known artists and activists played online as protest during the President's State of the Nation Address. That directives started as a passive anthem for event that took place many years ago in 2017, now has filled with rage fueled by the fire of people's burning hunger of realization for justice, basic human right, and press freedom. This song serves as a rebellious air to the real-world streets, where it provide an amplified voices of the people of society that is barely in the amid of progression to gain tranquility toward the Nation's might.
The musical arrangement was done by Vincent A. de Jesus, and additional lyrics by Rody Vera and Joel Saracho. This song then became a symbol of what people can do when the situation becomes so untenable and injustice become so blatant that the powers ruling the country should be removed. And for a nation whose passion for singing probably equals its passion for freedom, the lead-up to People Power also brought to the fore patriotic anthems such as “Bayan Ko” during rallies and “Handog ng Pilipino sa Mundo” in its aftermath. This heart-rending localization of a protest song expresses our deep-seated frustration, exhausted, sadness, and utter disappointment for how this current administration has handled or mishandled not just the Covid 19- pandemic response, but the fate of the entire Nation since it's unfortunate election held in 2016. A means of colloquialism of let the cat out of the bag. And so, assumingly the revolutionary song is perhaps, opposition conspiracy to Duterte Administration. This was actually interconnected with the President's challenge to health workers to stage a revolution against the government that had actually stemmed from the song that somewhat circulated on social media year ago. If we dig enough onto the lyrics of the song and analyze its initial approach to the possible listeners, this may prevoke the unreleased fragile demon in us to momentarily make a burst of anger just like the molten rocks underneath the Earth's surface. An attempt of addressing themselves, " I had enough". Slowly rising up and eager to say hello to its unknown beloved light of sun rays. May it be an indication for the reason of its permanently unmoved flow, yet grateful at least with assurance that been fulfilled the succession of obligation. We've been here living for such a period of times and era but somehow, this ungrateful events tends to bother and continued to buckle in top of the other. What we have now would never the same as it will be tomorrow, but why does this unbearable inhumanely subjective behaviors still presented in our life long? Perhaps, we are just in contentment of promised bubbling words.

Which perhaps, a massive deliberate connectivity with one of the idioms of Dr. Jose Rizal once enunciated, " The Youth is the hope of motherland". As it also, for instance, reflected on the means that the future of our nation lies on the hand of the youth today. More so, the youth have the power to reshape the Nation's current appearance. However, reflecting to the message that the song tends to express, this meaningful and echoing idiom has been passing through our ears for years but it seems no improvement has evolved. For example, the corruptions we've been debating—the disease of society for a longest period of time until today, yet the suggested recommendation to suppress and erased was considerably no use. Filipinos just keep murmuring this line but they take no move to actuate their stand. In relation to this matter, in the same manner as the youth present actions and movements, the song practically a pathway of ranging hopes of responsible leadership tested and honed. Likewise, the initial response that the government would provide not with promised words but with actions to accomplish. By this means, the song was delivered through mass communication at which performed online. The audience accumulated that may viewed the content has no particular calculation as modern technologies and advancement enables a huge capacity for it's users to surf throughout the platform as they desired to do so. However, there are still some fair restrictions and limitations for the users. Meaning to say, that would rather brought the message directly to the audience that serves as the gateway of relating to the audience for them to urge themselves, make a move beforehand other difficulties may be in state of visibility. As we looked up high and observe the atmosphere, we have all resources to completely contribute the initial approach for the society to build itself up.
That just happens, this song attributes an informative yet persuasive format which may tend to provide educating and convincing the audience that would attentively put impact to audience’s insights and perspectives to good manifestation in creating path towards the development of the Nation. In the same stand, they’re also following the formal and straightforward delivery of thoughts. It will not be in the state of disrespectful if you stand in a circle of critics, expresses your deepest concern of the administration that is strongly in complicated legibility. If we derived from the nature of darkness in comparison with the theme and black in white visual interpretation of the song in the verses. Darkness within the society is not the darkness defined by the emptiness of light but the conviction of light that never returns. However, lights return and the mechanism life sustainability can be stabilized. The problems just depend on us, we decide we provide. If we ourselves feels incapable of doing movements and actions toward environment we wanted then, don’t dare to wish for peaceful and fair trade of justice and freedom to rights. In conclusion, our brain has the abilities to think ideas and thoughts, so let us use this ideas for a noble purpose of helping our nation. Our eyes can see the reality, so let us bare witness to truth and honesty of public flexibility. Just believe in your own capacity of willingness that even your are young to considered not qualified to fight your stand, you can move a muscle, just believe. Moreover, the song is just a simple verses of words filled with melody and rhythm, but can solely triggered the ones wrongly done a movement and calculations, the ones affected and aggressively objected it’s production.
