Awit Ni Cesar (9 na taon)

Whoa, oh

Siyam na taon na 'kong nagpupukpuk ng pako ngunit wala pa
Siyam na taon na 'kong naghahalo ng semento ngunit wala pa
Siyam na taon na 'kong nagtatayo ng gusali ngunit wala pa
Siyam na taon na 'kong nagpupunyagi hanggang ngayo'y wala

Whoa, oh

Siyam na taon na 'kong nagpipiyon ngunit wala pa
Siyam na taon na 'kong nagmamason ngunit wala pa
Siyam na taon na 'kong bumubuo ng subdivision ngunit wala pa
Siyam na taon na 'kong sa gusali nakatira

Whoa, ngingiti na lang ba ako araw-araw?
Whoa, maghihintay na lang ba ng swerte sa t'wi-twina

Magtitiis na lang ba ako? Habang-buhay na lang bang ganito?
Kailan kaya aasenso? Ilang taon pa kaya?
Siyam na taon na lang, kailan kaya, kailan kaya?

Whoa, ngingiti na lang ba ako araw-araw?
Whoa, maghihintay na lang ba ng swerte sa t'wi-twina

Magtitiis na lang ba ako? Habang-buhay na lang bang ganito?
Kailan kaya aasenso? Ilang taon pa kaya?
Siyam na taon na lang, kailan kaya, kailan kaya?

Siyam na taon na lang, siyam na taon pa kaya?
Siyam na taon na lang, siyam na taon pa kaya?
Siyam na taon na lang, siyam na taon pa kaya?
Siyam na taon na lang, siyam na taon pa kaya?

Whoa-oh, whoa
Whoa-oh, whoa

Cesar's Song (9 Years)

Whoa, oh

I've been hammering nails for nine years, but still nothing
I've been mixing cement for nine years, but still nothing
I've been building houses for nine years, but still nothing
I've been struggling for nine years, and still nothing

Whoa, oh

I've been laying bricks for nine years, but still nothing
I've been doing masonry for nine years, but still nothing
I've been building subdivisions for nine years, but still nothing
I've been living in buildings for nine years

Whoa, should I just smile every day?
Whoa, should I just wait for luck to strike at midnight?

Should I just endure this? Is this all there is to life?
When will I succeed? How many more years?
Only nine more years, when will it be, when will it be?

Whoa, should I just smile every day?
Whoa, should I just wait for luck to strike at midnight?

Should I just endure this? Is this all there is to life?
When will I succeed? How many more years?
Only nine more years, when will it be, when will it be?

Only nine more years, only nine more years?
Only nine more years, only nine more years?
Only nine more years, only nine more years?
Only nine more years, only nine more years?

Whoa-oh, whoa
Whoa-oh, whoa
