Lyrics

[Intro]
So let's begin at the end
For most people, the most scariest thing about death
Isn't being death, it's dying, suffering
It's a key distinction, and to get underneath this
It can be very helpful to lease out suffering
Which is necessary, as it is from suffering we can change
The former is a natural, essential part of life, part of the deal
End to this we are called to make space, adjust, grow
It can be really good to realize forces larger that ourselves
They bring proportionality, like a cosmic right sizing
[Chorus]
Life could be an eternal highway
Driving both lanes or choosing freeways
Whatever you take, you know what's at stake
You know what you doing
When you make some mistakes
Life could be an eternal downfall
Diving headfirst, sliding slo-mo
Life could be anything that you think of
Life could be everything that you dream of
[Verse 1]
But God's will, oh, God's will
Sometimes be shittin' on you, that's how I feel
Minsan bibigyan ka Niya, minsan madamot Siya
Minsan iiwanan ka, minsan andito Siya
So when something's there, you gotta grip it
Life force, inspirations, don't give it
Up 'cause you never know when it'll be back
Man, we never know when sadness attacks
And I hate it, emotions and poems, illusion in homes
The way that they argue, I'll never belong
Somewhere that's cursed, a cycle of thirst
What's love and what's not, they all kinda forgot
'Cause deciding with emotions leaves a fruit, and they rot
Ah, ah, this life, you gotta choose what's real
But how can we all make it? Are we sure it's real?
Is it an illusion, is it all just to feel?
Temporary worth, man, it's so unclear, ah
Free verse for the existential
Crisis in my head, and they say it’s special
It’s the only way I can express
Thoughts leaving in my head
Kinda funny 'cause they don't know how I pretend that
[Verse 2]
Everything's okay, everything's all great
Everything's okay, everything's all great
Everything's okay, everything's all great
Everything's okay, everything's all great
[Verse 3]
Suffering together
Now, on the system's side, on the other hand
So much of the suffering is unnecessary, invented
It serves no good purpose, but the good news is
Since this brand of suffering is made up, well we can change it
How we die is indeed something we can affect
[Bridge]
Sabi nila 'wag mag-alala kasi lilipas din 'yan
Sabi nila 'wag mag-alala kasi lilipas din 'yan
'Asan na ang sagot? 'Asan na ang sagot? Aah
'Asan na ang sagot? 'Asan na ang sagot? Aah
[Verse 4]
Either way, I can't say I give up every day
I might feel a little empty, but I'm on my way
To the greats, saying hey, to the people that stayed
Then people that left get the fuck out my way
I’m alive, I’m alive
That's all I know I can feel I'm alive
There's not one answer to how to survive
Eternal highway, I'm choosing to drive
[Chorus]
Life could be an eternal highway
Driving both lanes or choosing freeways
Whatever you take, you know what's at stake
You know what you doin’
When you make some mistakes
Life could be an eternal downfall
Diving headfirst, sliding slo-mo
Life could be anything that you think of
Life could be everything that you dream of
[Verse 5]
Aah, aah, aah
Aah, aah, aah
Aah, aah, aah
Ah, ah
So we cruising, mm, we cruising
Yeah, we cruising and driving and cruising
Ah, ah, yeah, yeah
Aah, aah, aah
Aah, aah, aah
Aah, aah, aah
[Outro]
Sabi nila 'wag mag-alala kasi lilipas din 'yan
Sabi nila 'wag mag-alala kasi lilipas din 'yan
'Asan na ang sagot? 'Asan na ang sagot?
'Asan na ang sagot? 'Asan na ang sagot?
