Anna Melissa - Ako Naman (Revised)

Pangarap Ay Abot (Buildersville Theme)
Words & Music: Dale James L. Ferrer

I
Gusto mo bang magsimula ng maginhawang buhay
Hindi ka madidismaya, dinggin mo ang aming alay
sariling condo na aboy kaya, wala nang hahanapin pa

Chorus:
Sa Buildersville pangarap mo'y abot (pangarap ay abot)
Seguridad ng 'yong pamilya'y aming sagot (kayo'y aming sagot)
Ito'y isang obra sa modernong panahon (modernong panahon)
Panatag na pamumuhay ang aming tugon (ito'y aming  tugon) 

II
Ikaw ba'y lalayo pa sa karatig na probinsiya
kung kami ay nadito lang sa puso ng Valenzuela
huwag problemahin ang bagyo, hundred percent flood-free dito

Jason Dy - Be Honest

The song I wrote for LBC's 'Ronda Pilipinas 2011" Cycling Competition. The official theme song of LBC's "Ronda Pilipinas".
Words & Music: Dale James L. Ferrer
Artist: Anna Melissa


Ronda Na!

I
'di matitinag ng sikat ng araw, o buhos ng ulan
pirming nakatanaw sa patutunguhan, wala nang lingunan

ang isip, ang puso'y bubuhos sa laban na 'to
dasal ang sandata, tagumpay ang hangarin ko

Chorus:
Ronda na! Larga na!
Lumusong at umahon ka, taglay ang bagong pag-asa
Ronda na! Larga na!
Iwanan na ang pangamba, sumulong ka dakilang siklista

II
'di na bibitaw, buo ang loob at isip, landas ay tatahakin
puso'y sumisigaw, ano man ang balakid, handa nang danasin

ang pagod, ang uhaw, lahat ay mapapawi rin
sa sipag at dunong, pangarap maaabot din

Ronda Na!

The song I wrote for PLDT/SMART/Cignal & TV 5's one-stop shop called "Jump". 

Jump!
Words & Music: Dale James L. Ferrer

I
are you ready for the next best thing, a world you've never seen?
It's gearing up, It's shaping up, It's taking over
are you ready for a new experience where innovations live?
it's new, It's real, the future's here, we'll take you further

a world of choices, opportunities at your fingertips!

Chorus: 
Jump! We're ready to engage, we're ready to excite
we're ready to inform and entertain
Jump! What are you waiting for, get on your feet, explore
can't wait to give you more

Ako Naman
Words: Anna Melissa
Music: Dale James Ferrer/Anna Melissa/Pillowcase

I
Tried so hard to do it right and not fall apart
God gave strength to stand the fight and don't just give up
Now I know it's time for me top give it a shot
and I so long for the day you''ll see what I've got

Chorus:
So wait lang ako muna naman
come let me show what I can
kung kaya mo 'di kaya ko rin, ako naman my friend
Wait lang ako muna naman
watch and learn from all that I can
kung keri mo, 'di keri ko rin, ako naman my friend

II
No never thought that somehow, you'd give a damn
I've waited, waited, wanted and I hoped for this thing
Now I'll do my best and I will prove you my worth
Oh I ain't braggin' baby, you got all my respect 

kung kaya mo 'di kaya ko
keri ko kung keri mo, bibilib ka sure ako
ako naman my friend!
