Regla is one of the 13 tracks in Pasya Music Album written and performed by Muro Ami, SHNTI, and Tao. The song is arranged, produced, and mixed by Calix.

Pasya Music Album is part of the decriminalization of abortion campaign in the Philippines that is made possible by Women's Global Network for Reproductive Rights in collaboration with Filipino Freethinkers and Philippine Safe Abortion Advocacy Network, and with support from Safe Abortion Action Fund and Abortion Conversation Projects.

Won't you take a walk with me
Into the night, into the night
With some luck I'll forget you
I hope I'm right, I hope I'm right

Felt something in the air
Was cold out, though I didn't care
We started half-hearted
Let's end it just like we started

I've no time for a promise
I've no time for a fight
So won't you take a walk with me
Just for the night, just for the night

Felt something in the air
Was cold out, though I didn't care
We started half-hearted
Let's end it just like we started

Artista ng bayan, isulong at ipaglaban ang pambansang wika!

Natapos man ang pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika ngayong Agosto, walang humpay pa rin na ipagpapatuloy natin ang pagsulong ng pambansa’t makabayang wika!

Sa ilalim ng neoliberal at malakolonyal na sistema, ilang daang taon man ang nakalipas ay nananatili ang impluwensiya ng imperyalistang US sa ating edukasyon, pananalita, sining, at kulturang popular na nagdudulot ng unti-unting pagkalimot sa mga kinagawiang sariling kultura na nagpapaalab sa mga tunay na damdaming makabayan. 

Handog ng Musicians for Peace ang cover ng kantang “Speak in English Zone” ni Joel Costa Malabanan, kung saan ito'y sumasalamin sa ilang dekadang paghawak ng US sa pulitika, ekonomya, at kultura ng Pilipinas.

Noon hanggang ngayon, ipinapataw ng US ang paggamit ng wikang Ingles sa ngalan ng globalisasyon, ngunit nakikita natin na ang tunay na dahilan nito ay para maging alipin ang mamamayang Pilipino at magsilbi lamang tayo sa dayuhang kapitalista.

Kaya, mga artista, iskolar ng bayan kasama ang manggagawa’t iba pang sektor ng mamamayan, sama-sama tayo sa patuloy na pagpapahalaga sa kayamanan ng sarili nating wikang Pilipino–kasabay rin ang iba’t ibang rehiyonal na lenggwahe, sapagkat ang paggamit at pagbunyi nito ay isa sa pamamaraan ng pagtatanggol sa ating pambansang soberanya at paglaban para sa pagpapalaya ng bayan mula sa imperyalistang bansa!

(Ang kantang ito ay cover ng 2018 version ng “Speak in English Zone” ni Joel Costa Labanan, na may updated na liriko mula sa orihinal.)

Bahagi ito ng May Pag-asa Caravan, isang caravan pang-edukasyon at pangkultura para sa tunay na nasyonalismo. Para sa iba pang detalye, maaaring pumunta sa aming Facebook page (May Pag-Asa: Cultural and Educational Caravan for Nationalism).

Wakasan ang 125-Taong Pagkaalipin!

Ang Isko't Iska 2022 ay umikot sa iba't ibang uri ng lipunan na napuntahan ni Isko. Sa lahat ng lugar na ito, iisa ang pinag-iikutan ng kwento: ang madugo at ginintuang kasaysayan ng Kapok at ang iba't ibang katauhan ng Marcos-Arroyo-Duterte sa lipunan.

Wake up
Release
Feel the ease

Give the best
The rest
You'll see

A New Nay, A Clear Mind
A New Nay, A Clear Mind

Make your coffee
Get comfortable
Sit back
Relax
Let the world
Get back on track

Write it now
Write it smooth
Let yourself
Feel the room

A New Nay, A Clear Mind
A New Nay, A Clear Mind

Forgive yesterday
Today is here
It's a new day
So stay clear

Give the best
The rest
You'll see

A New Nay, A Clear Mind

white feather

should've kissed u when i had the chance
should've asked u for another dance
turned around when u called out my name
should've told u that i felt the same
  
want to hold u desperately but both my hands are tied
the only thing i want is what the universe denied

(inspired by The Crisis scene, one of the songs from The Legend of 1900)

    I Could Have Said

    I have seen so much faces
    As I walk to my age
    But there’s someone
    I can never compare;
    You have the eyes of compassion
    And the voice of the truth
    For you were borne out
    In the midst of the struggle

    Something makes me feel this strange
    Somehow I long for you

    As I’ve been watching you
    From the day till night
    You were singing
    The songs of the people;
    And the echo resounded
    To my thoughts, to my soul
    To my music, it ever continued

    Something makes me look at you so differently,
    Somehow I wanted to be beside you

    * As thousands march the streets
    And the red flags were waving
    We’re alongside
    The oppressed and disheartened,
    You have vowed not to leave them
    As we get all the beatings
    From a state
    That doesn’t care

    But you made it clear to me
    You made me feel the sweet things of freedom

    ** I’ve been thinking of you
    A beauty so perfect
    For you are one
    With the struggle of the people

    But before you have left to the hills and the mountains
    I wish I could have said, “I love you.”

    I love you (2x)

    (Repeat *)

    (Repeat **)

    You made me feel
    Feel the sweet things
    The sweet things of freedom

    Sweet things of freedom (3x)
