78 He's the One
78.
He's the One
He's the One
Whose genuine kindness I ignored
And even enmity I labored
Publicly I abhorred
He's the One
Whose victory I tried to bar
When from his people I departed afar
On his opponent's nest – my childhood mirth – I gave him scar
He's the One
Whose people should have led me
To the true path of victory
If ever I wasn't poisoned by own false fantasy
He's the One
Whose light revealed my darkness
On times of my great doubt and distress
Despite that, his people treated me with kindness
He's the One
Whose followers' door opened
When to them I was tossed once again
Although for once they've been threatened
He's the One
Whose true benevolence
Slowly washes my discontent and impatience
As my hostile drive was laid into abstinence
He's the One
Whose kindness I'm still confused
Because my guilty heart tells I'm accused
Since his generosity once I abused
He's the One
Whose people tend me again
Who might be devising plots to cause me pain
For their master I once put in disdain
He's the One
Whose nation may be hating me
Because I once rebelled against thee
Now I'm back, they doubt my sincerity
He's the One
Who to our mass media was ever a hero
That's common sense for I cannot find him a flaw
And also his lineage tells us so
He's the One
Who can end my existence
For still I'm suspected with malevolence
What great karma brought by my negligence!?
After all, He's still the One
Whom I believe will be my authentic hero
If he and his people can endure me for more years to go
Since now I consider myself a fan of Pres. Noynoy Aquino…
The One whose straight path I don't wanna forgo!
