Under My Umbrella

We started out as strangers
Ripping each others teeth
You are a snob in an ugly feathery coat (kadumdum ka?)
Neck so stiff, like an aristocrat
Spoiled brat and snooty chic
A drama queen who chooses her friends
At least that's what I've thought
And right there and then,
I genetically engineered myself to dislike you immediately

Time goes, we've made different set of friends
Although, we exchange smiles and nods in the hallway
I never thought of WE as an "Allied"
You're just so "maarte" and there's no way I could like you
And then, it was unexpected
We talk once and we clicked
We form a special bond, a bond of FRIENDSHIP

Although, we differs in so many ways
But our differences is what pulls us together
We complement each other (kinda!)
Like "Mango with Bagoong", "Suka sa Tuyo", "Puto and Dinuguan"
You taught me glamour and sophistication (murag la man japon)
I brought your wittiness and humor
And we bring out each other's best (mao ba?)

Although, we don't share the same interest
You love to party while I'm a loner
We argued so much about bars and night-outs
You almost strangled me just to go clubbing with you
Threatened to blow my brain if I say NO to outings
And Mother if I said YES, to any of them
That means that my life is at stake (blackbelter man gud na siya Ma)
And a gun on my side ready to fire any minute

But, There are times I saw you as my mirror
Opinionated and lack of attention (mga KSP)
Talk like there's no tomorrow
Blabber nuts with so many angst in life (Pa Therapy oi)
One glance and we know each other's thought
One grin and we know if its for flattery or the opposite (Racist jud)
We think so much alike
But you voices it out while I keep my mouth shut
And you show it to the world while I just hid it

We share each others thoughts and feelings
We talk about problems in life like a Prisoner in a death row
We then become inseparable
To the point of thinking you as lesbian
Who's just preying me for a lover (jowk)
And then I realize
You're the soulmate that God forgot to give me (uhhhhhh!, cheesy with mayo)

Though, sometimes you're a bad influence (piti jud ko ani ron)
You're more troublesome that I've expected (in ma own ipinyun lang man)
You give hell when things don't go your way (dili man pud sige)
Grumbled and Cursed thickly like a drunken man (sa chat ra man sad)
But then I stick with you
Not because that is what friends are for
But because I sooooooooo see myself in you (wala lang jud nako napagawas)
And if I stopped fighting my inner demons
WE'RE SURELY BE ON THE SAME SIDE NOW. (dili pa diay??! heheheh)

Through the years, I watch you grow
True enough, you became my mentor
Now, I know what is right from wrong
That Its right to drink and drive and "U" turn in a "No U turn Zone"
But Its wrong, to do so, when there's a patrol car tailing behind you (mayu gani wala ta gukura)
That its OK to work tipsy but seems not, than the other way around
That bringing in liquor to the office is alright
Just put it in plastic with straw, the guard would think your sipping Sprite, anyway
That between choosing YAY! or NAY!, the latter means I'M DEAD
That workaholic means working plus alcohol
That multitasking is TAR Fixing while ears on the phone and 5 opened browser
That innovative is finding ways to look busy
And PEOPLE, now you know, why I'm close to suicidal

You became a trendsetter
You carved the word "facist" (sa mga tawng pilian ug gwapo)
You address everyone with "Madam"
Now everyone's Madam for everyone (tanan POS-I girls, Madam na ang tawagan)
And thanks for coining MADMA
Although, it bothers me at first
But, I kinda used to it
Now, some are calling me that way (even in Facebook.. AHA!)
Without even knowing the real meaning of it

And now, as faith bring as apart
As miles of distance separates us
As you conquer an entirely new world alone
As temperature of doubts arise
Think of the shady place, reserved for you
Under my Umbrella (OA, uber uber!)

As rain of problems keep pouring in
As you feel as "an only man in an island"
You know right there and then
A safe place to stay
Under my Umbrella (ew, sooooo lesbian!!)

As storm of uncertainties gets in your way
And you have no one to lean on
Seek for a place, reserved for you
Under my umbrella

And if you don't know what to do
Just turn to the sky above
Remember that I'm just on the other side of the world
As long as we still under the same sun
And we still share the same stars and moon
That means I am near you
And you can still stay under my Umbrella
Coz my Umbrella is my heart
And my heart goes wherever you go (ewwww, so OA, uber uber..)
