IKAW LANG 
Music & Lyrics by: Julianne Tarroja
Produced by: Julianne Tarroja, John Apura, Mark Escueta, Ryan Peralta
Recorded at: Birdhouse studios
Mixed & Mastered by: Angee Rozul 

LYRICS:

Dahan dahan
Bawat hakbang 
Patungo sa 
Mabuting kalagayan

Di man naiintindihan
Kung bakit kailangan
Kong daanan

Itong pag subok na iniliaan para sa'kin
Naghahanap ng kahit konting
Paghuhugutan ng lakas
Nang maalala ko
Pina-alala Mo

Ikaw lang ako tangi kong maaakbayan
Ikaw lang ang di susuko pag wala na akong paki-alam
Ikaw lang ang tangi kong gabay at ilaw ko
Ikaw lang ang kaisa-isang maaasahan ko

Alam ko 
Mahirap minsan
Magpatuloy manalig
At kumapit lalo na't
Ibinigay mo na ang lahat
Parang kulang parin
Kay rami ng tanong mo
Lahat at naka bitin

[LYRICS]

You said "be honest"
And so I was with how this started
And just because
I said "I promise" that this won't change
You want an answer?
Feel the same.

Coz no one really knows what we felt that night
Don't it even show when we both touch eyes?
I don’t even think we ever got to that part 
Hand on my heart
I swear to drop guard, but

“I don’t wanna lose a friend” — 
this is how it ends
Waiting on the moment
or for our line to bend
I don’t wanna let it go
There’s just so much to know
You got to ask your question—
and then you got to go

You said "be honest"
With how I feel and how it started
and if it’s real
I said “I promise” — you asked me why
I gave my answer
You drank your wine

No one really knows what we felt that night
Don't it even show when we both touch eyes?
I don’t even think we ever got to that part 
Hand on my heart
I swear to drop guard, but

“I don’t wanna lose a friend” — 
this is how it ends
Waiting on the moment
or for our line to bend
I don’t wanna let it go
There’s just so much to know
You got to ask your question—
and then you got to go

So why or why not?
But then you gotta go

Just make it all right, lie on the sheets of desire
I designed with your lips on my mind
And take it outright, all of my poetry— 
I’m willing to sing it again
But I don’t wanna lose a friend

“I don’t wanna lose a friend” — 
this is how it ends
Waiting on the moment
or for our line to bend
I don’t wanna let it go
There’s just so much to know
You got to ask your question—
and then you got to go

So why or why not?
But then you gotta go
"I don't wanna lose a friend..."

No More

Too much of a good thing is still too much. NAKS.

She got those hips, those candy lips
She know all that it's about
With every time she opens her mouth
She got that smile, those danger eyes
For every time she says her part
she takes a bite off every heart
Lights in her hair, without a care
She do it good to every room
By bein' an amazing view
And all the boys do stare
when both her hands oh hit the air
I swear I took my time,
learning lines on the side

She takes the cake in the better of ways

I can't fake it-
every other word it just gets worse
Fillin' up the cup with "just my luck"
bailing out like it's my thing
And every other song I write, I sing
"I promise I'll stop"
I swear that I'm done
with this cookie butter then another runnin' from love

She's got that laugh that gets you bad
Takes you for a ride outside, gets you dancing on a line
She's got that look straight out from a book
Far from what I been used to,
something so light 
and something new

Cookie Butter feat. The Metro Fantastic Horn Section

You said that we would fight for love
and I believed you
And I did everything right for love

You said that it was all worth it
that we could be perfect and
My heart made its plans based on your words
and I took your truth, 

made it mine
For a time I felt like I was happy
made a home out of trusting you
didn't stop loving you
You chose to play one more game

Baby I don't think I deserve to be broken
Baby I don't think I deserve to be broken
Baby I don't think I deserve to be broken
Baby I don't think I deserve to be broken

What are you building?

You said that you wanna stay with me
that you're in love with me, you'd fight for me
But you said that you're not that sure of me
That you don't really trust me girl?

You said that I was all worth it
that I was perfect and
I lived as your man and played by your plans,
It just wasn't good for you 

what the hell?
Turn it well and just don't believe in me
made a mess out of loving you
Wasn't enough for you
You chose to play one more game

Baby I don't think I deserve to be broken
Baby I don't think I deserve to be broken
Baby I don't think I deserve to be broken
Baby I don't think I deserve to be broken

No.
