Francis Magalona: Three star and a sun

Jul 31, 2007

Three stars and a sun, in one sky so high
I live and die and die will I for my motherland
This is the land of my birth
No purse is worth the price of this earth
Can we rise, can we all, hell no
Or should we all just take the fall?
Bless the man if his heart and his land are one
The 3 stars and a sun

3 stars and a sun
I’m ready to defend the 3 stars and a sun

Ommision to a mission, transport for the brain
Packed w/ stacks of tracks built for a train
I eat lead, but I never let it be said
“He said, she said,” it makes me see red
‘Cuz I don’t take bullshit
And I’m ‘a pack it and push it
And hit you w/ the full clip
Switch to mode lock-’n’-load in the land of Juan
The 3 stars and a sun

3 stars and a sun
I’m ready to defend the 3 stars and a sun

Bahay kubo kahit munti
May pula, bughaw, dilaw, at tsaka puti

There is a need to sow the seed
Toil the soil and plod until your hands bleed
‘Cuz this land is sacred
Many a battle have been fought with hatred
Don’t tell me that you understand
It’s been 4 hundred years of tears for the brown man
Still and all the fight has just begun
3 stars and a sun

3 stars and a sun
I’m ready to defend the 3 stars and a sun
