Kakasawa na, Kakasawa na (lagi) (4x)
It's already tiring, it's already tiring (always) (4x)
Ako si Juan Tamad
I am Juan Lazy
Ayaw kong mabilad
I don't wanna go out and get burned
Kahit malapit ang ubas
Even if the grapes is just near
Ayaw kong mag-inat
I don't want to stretch
Ako si Juan Tamad
I am Juan Lazy
Kahit marami pang prutas
Even if there are still plenty of fruits
ayaw kong magbuhat
I don't want to carry things
Kakasawa na, Kakasawa na, lagi (8x)
It's already tiring, it's already tiring (always) (8x)
(Uso pa ba?)
(Is it still well liked?)
'To ay buhay ng isang (Uso pa ba?)
This is is a life of a (Is it still well liked?)
taong di nalilibang (Uso pa ba?)
person who doesn't get entertained (Is it still well liked?)
sa lahat ng nangyayari (Uso pa ba?)
to everything that is happening (Is it still well liked?)
sinasabi ng ilan
other people said
Ilang pahalang
Others who are rebelious
Parang humigop ng sabaw na matabang
It's like sipping a bland soup
Napaso kasi mainit, pinilit, sumingit, humirit, humigit kumulang di sapat ang alam
Got burned 'cause it's hot, forced, got ahead, requested, almost not enough knowledge
Nakakatakam, ang bango ng halimuyak pero sa huli sadyang mabaho ang amoy
It's making me crave, the scent smells good but in the end it's actually stinky
Sino ang pinagsisibak ng kahoy
Who was asked to chopped wood
Pero bat' ng lumao'y ikaw lang ang syang napaso ng apoy
But why is it that in the long run you're the only one got burned by the fire
Kahit na palagi mong tanungin
Even if always asked
Malalim ba yan sige talunin
Is it deep go ahead and jump
Putik lulusungin, malayo man ay lalanguyin
Will swim in the mud, although is far, keep swimming
Bawal tumayo pero marami dapat abutin
It's not allowed to stand up but there should be plenty to reach
Malaman ang katotohanan kailangan mong amuyin
Know the truth, you need to smell it
Mga paa't kamay sa lupa kailanga'y nakayuko
Feet and hands in the ground should be crouched
Bawat segundo palaging nakikipag-buno
Always beating up someone in each second
Para lang makabayad ka ng luha, pawis at dugo
Just to pay for tears, sweat and blood
Hindi ka makakampante,
You'll never be contented
Langgam laban sa higante
Ant against a giant
Mantika sa paa, pinatulay ka sa alambre
Oil in the feet, you're asked to cross a wire
Sa hirap ng buhay tila wala ka ng masabi
The way poor life is it's like you can't say anything else
Parang nung unang araw na makilala ko si Shanti
Just like the first time I met Shanti
Tuloy pa rin ang laban
Still continue the fight
Kung huli na ang lahat
If it's already too late
Baka pwede pang maagapan
We might still save it
Kung hindi ka makalakad
If you can no longer walk
Kahit papano gumapang
Still try to crawl
Dahil ang takot ay may pagkakataon na tumapang kaso lang...
Cause' the cowards still got a chance to become fearless however..
Pag malabo ang pangako
If the promise is bleak
Tetano sa makalawang na pako
The tetanus in a rusty nail
Pag napaso at malayo
If burned and far away
Ayaw kong mag-inat
I don't want to stretch
Ayaw kong mabilad
I don't wanna go out and get burned
Kakasawa na, kakasawa na, lagi (8x)
It's already tiring, it's already tiring (always) (8x)
