Lyrics and translation Gloc-9 - Takdang Aralin

Takdang Aralin

Gloc-9, pa′no ba sumulat ng letra
Upang ang mga mata ay mamulat
Gloc-9, 'yung nakakagulat
At lahat ay gustong umakbay sa′yong balikat
Gloc-9, pa'no ba sumulat ng letra
Upang ang mga mata ay mamulat
Gloc-9, 'yung nakakagulat
At lahat ay gustong umakbay

Kung walang asukal sa kape, dapat makale
Kahit na ano pang ingay d′yan, okay lang kami
Kapag merong makikiraan ay tumatabi
Papel at panulat sa kamay ang aming pambili
Sa tindahan ng buhay, lagi naming pambayad
Nagsawa na′ko sa gulay, lalakad lang ng banayad
Buhat-buhat ang karne, mga kamay na may lamat
Ang nakaguhit sa palad ay prenong 'di sumasayad

Mabilis, mabangis, palihis man ang alon
Natuto nang sumagwan sa bangka na walang tapon
Nainis sa panis na diniss mo kahapon
Piliin ang laban at ang papatulan na hamon
Dahil ′di kailangan patunayan ang sarili
Sa taong ang pinangungusap lang ay gitnang daliri
Ang sa'yo ay sa′yo kahit na 'di ka mapili
Basta handa kang lasahan kahit ang nakakadiri

Magtanim ay ′di biro, pwede kang matibo
Paglusong mo sa putik, kailangan kang maligo
Ano mang iyong piliin, dapat mahalin
At huwag kalimutang gawin ang takdang aralin
Magtanim ay 'di biro, pwede kang matibo
Paglusong mo sa putik, kailangan kang maligo
Ano mang iyong piliin, dapat mahalin
At huwag kalimutang gawin ang takdang aralin

'Di madali, mahirap, pinaghirapan ko ′yun
Buhayin ang kulisap sa kamay na nakakuyom
Intindihin ang sinabi sa tenga nang pabulong
Alam mo kung sa′n liliko kahit hindi ka lumingon
Luwagan mo ang kapit nang hindi ka bumibitaw
Aralin ang sinapit ng mga unang gumalaw
Huwag mong ihain ang kanin kung ang sinaing ay hilaw
Lalo na kung alam mo na ang nagluto ay ikaw

Ang gusto kong sabihin ay napakasimple lang
'Di mo dapat pinapakinggan ang imposible ′yan
Kapag meron kang naipon at alam mo kung ilan
Pumunta ka sa palengke, sabihin mo pagbilan
Basta manahimik ka lang 'pag ′di ka kinakausap
Inuupuan ang silya, hindi ito binubuhat
Magsuot ka ng relo, iwasang maging makunat
'Pag hindi ka dumating sa oras, ′yan ang mauulat

Gloc-9, pa'no ba sumulat ng letra
Upang ang mga mata ay mamulat
Gloc-9, 'yung nakakagulat
At lahat ay gustong umakbay sa′yong balikat
Gloc-9, pa′no ba sumulat ng letra
Upang ang mga mata ay mamulat
Gloc-9, 'yung nakakagulat
At lahat ay gustong umakbay

Homework

Gloc-9, how do you write lyrics
To open people's eyes?
Gloc-9, the kind that surprises
And everyone wants to stand by your side
Gloc-9, how do you write lyrics
To open people's eyes?
Gloc-9, the kind that surprises
And everyone wants to stand by you

If there's no sugar in the coffee, we gotta find a way
No matter the noise around, we're okay
We step aside when someone needs to pass
Paper and pen in hand, that's our way to buy
At the store of life, it's always our payment
I'm tired of vegetables, I'll just walk gently
Carrying meat, hands with cracks
The lines etched on my palm are brakes that don't work

Fast, fierce, even if the waves are astray
I learned to row a boat with no bailer
Annoyed by the stale food you dissed yesterday
Choose your battles and the challenges you'll face
Because there's no need to prove yourself
To people whose only sentence is a middle finger
What's yours is yours, even if you're not picky
As long as you're willing to taste even the disgusting

Farming is no joke, you can get stuck
When you dive into the mud, you need to bathe
Whatever you choose, you must love
And don't forget to do your homework
Farming is no joke, you can get stuck
When you dive into the mud, you need to bathe
Whatever you choose, you must love
And don't forget to do your homework

It's not easy, it's hard, I worked hard for it
Bring the insect to life in a clenched fist
Understand what was said in a whisper
You know where to turn even without looking back
Loosen your grip without letting go
Study the fate of those who moved first
Don't serve the rice if it's undercooked
Especially if you know you're the one who cooked it

What I want to say is very simple
You shouldn't listen to the impossible
When you have savings and you know how much
Go to the market, tell them to sell you some
Just keep quiet when you're not being talked to
You sit on a chair, you don't carry it
Wear a watch, avoid being sluggish
If you don't arrive on time, that's what will be reported

Gloc-9, how do you write lyrics
To open people's eyes?
Gloc-9, the kind that surprises
And everyone wants to stand by your side
Gloc-9, how do you write lyrics
To open people's eyes?
Gloc-9, the kind that surprises
And everyone wants to stand by you
