We came to Tacloban by land carrying a truckload of relief goods, hoping to make this dire situation a little bit better.
But we felt that we had to give more than just material relief to the survivors.
We accidentally came up with this song while shooting a documentary.
We hope to uplift the spirit of the survivors through this song.
Rise up Tacloban
Don't be defeated
No matter how
Strong the storm
Wipe off the tears
And mud on your face
Just hold on tight
We will stand
Rise up to a new future
Be tough on the inside my friend
We will rise in the course of time
Rise up my Tacloban
My one request
And prayer
Justice for the victims
Will hopefully be heard
While we are united
In heart and emotion
We will never be broken
By any kind of wind
Rise up to a new future
Be tough on the inside my friend
We will rise in the course of time
Rise up my Tacloban
No matter the number of lives
You take away from us
You could flood my house
Crush it with the wind
I'll just stand up again
This is Waray-waray
We will not allow defeat
By any kind of storm
Rise up to a new future
Be tough on the inside my friend
We will rise in the course of time
Rise up my Tacloban
