Ben&Ben feat. SB19 “Kapangyarihan” Lyrics + English Translation

[Intro: Ben&Ben]
Akala niyo ba, ang kapangyarihan
Did you think that power
Ay nasa inyo? Sino ba kayo?
Is yours? Who even are you?

[Verse 1: Ben&Ben]
‘Di naman kami nagkulang
We didn’t lack
Sa aming pag-uunawa
In being understanding of you
‘Di ka namin isusuka
We wouldn’t spit you out
Kung hindi ka pa sukdulan
If you hadn’t reached the limits

[Pre-Chorus: Ben&Ben]
Huwag niyong tapakan
Don’t dare step on
Ang katarungan
Justice

[Chorus: Ben&Ben]
Akala niyo ba, ang kapangyarihan
Did you think that power
Ay nasa inyo? Sino ba kayo?
Is yours? Who even are you?
Magwawagi ang katotohanan
The truth always wins
Ang kadiliman ay ibabagsak
The darkness will fall

[Post-Chorus: Ben&Ben]
Nagsisilbi ka dapat
You should serve the people
Nagsisilbi ka dapat
You should serve the people

[Verse 2: Ken, Pablo]
‘Di ba? Dapat ikaw ang nagsisilbi sa’min
Wasn’t it you who should be serving us?
Bakit tila kami’y nananaginip nang gising
Why is it as if we’re living out nightmares?
Ang bawat pighati na dala, dagdag bigat damdamin
Each struggle is another weight in our chests
Pipilitin na pasanin hanggang sa mga mata niyo’y mamulat
But we’ll keep carrying these until you open your eyes
Magising sa sigaw na sumasalamin sa sumpa niyong magsilbi sa amin
Wake up to our screams, because you swore you’d serve us
Tuluyang nawalan ng bisa
Before your promises are laid to waste

[Verse 3: Justin, Josh]
Ba’t sinaulo’t ‘di sinapuso bilang ng buhay ng tao
Why aren’t you taking the lives of people so seriously?
Kayong mga hari-harian pagkalaki na ng mga ulo
Those who play king, your heads have gotten too big
‘Wag niyong kalilimutan na hawak-hawak
Don’t forget that the throne that you sit on
Namin ang inyong trono
Was built by our hands
Nadidinig niyo pa ba ‘ko?
Can you even hear us?
Pangako’y napako dahil sa korona sa ulo niyo
These promises are as broken as the crown on your head

[Bridge: Stell]
‘Di na magpapaalipin pa
We’ll no longer be slaves
Sa mga rehas mo
To your chains
‘Di mabubuwag ng kahit anumang sindak
No fear will shake
Ang katotohanang ‘to
What truth there really is

[Breakdown: Ben&Ben]
Ibon na malayang lumipad
The free bird that flies
‘Di mo na makukulong
Will refuse to be caged any more

[Chorus: Ben&Ben & SB19]
Akala niyo ba, ang kapangyarihan
Did you think that power
Ay nasa inyo? Sino ba kayo?
Is yours? Who even are you?
Magwawagi ang katotohanan
The truth always wins
Ang kadiliman ay ibabagsak
The darkness will fall

[Chorus: Ben&Ben & SB19]
Akala niyo ba, ang kapangyarihan
Did you think that power
Ay nasa inyo? Sino ba kayo?
Is yours? Who even are you?
Magwawagi ang katotohanan
The truth always wins
Ang kadiliman ay ibabagsak
The darkness will fall

[Post-Chorus: Ben&Ben]
Nagsisilbi ka dapat
You should serve the people
Nagsisilbi ka dapat
You should serve the people

[Outro: Ben&Ben]
Katotohanan, ang dapat mamuno (Nagsisilbi ka dapat)
Truth should be the one to lead (You should serve the people)
Sa namumuno sa mamamayan (Nagsisilbi ka dapat)
The one who leads the people (You should serve the people)
Makatarungan ang dapat mamuno (Nagsisilbi ka dapat)
Justice must drive (You should serve the people)
Sa namumuno sa mamamayan (Nagsisilbi ka dapat)
The ones who lead the people (You should serve the people)
Nagsisilbi ka dapat
You should serve the people
Nagsisilbi ka dapat
You should serve the people
