Least Concerns

Don't want to be caught in the crossfire
Guess I'll sing behind the saints of the choir
Don't want to break your heart into pieces
It's a hassle but we sure can talk it over

And when the hour hand turns
Do you curl up in your sleep
When you decipher these words
Will you ever think that things were meant to be
I need some sleep but you draw me in

But when you're finally gone
You're finally gone away
Would I have said the right words, said the right words?
Its the least of your concerns
But it'd be great if we both returned each others' least concerns

Don't want to take trains during rush hour
Guess I'll wait it out like rain in September
But I am intrigued. I haven't recovered
Let me know the reason why you like that color

Don't want to bring government papers
Make me sign right here and there and almost everywhere
A queue to your heart would be more rewarding
If you promise that we'll have a conversation

[Wala Kang Pera (lyrics)]

Sa’n ka ngayong gabi, nagte-text kami sa ‘yo
Nag-aaya sanang lumabas.
Balita ko ‘di na naman natuloy ang lakad mo,
Bakit ‘di ka nagre-reply?
Natulog ka na lang ba?

Ang dami mong alam na pasakalye,
Alam namin kung sa’n ka alangan.
Akala mo porke manipis ang yong wallet;
Sa pagagala, wala ka nang dahilan.

‘Wag mangamba
‘Di gagasta
Basta sumama ka
Bahala na.
Labas tayo
Sa’n ba kamo?
Sa’n man tayo aabutin ng kuwarenta ko

Sumama ka sa amin
‘Wag mo nang alalhanin
Wala kang pera (wala kang pera) (x2)
‘Wag mo nang ikahiya
‘Wag mo nang idahilan na
Wala kang pera (wala kang pera) (x2)
Ako rin.



Pwede tayong pumunta ngayon sa plaza’t
Manood ng nagba-basketball.
Kung ‘di mahuhuli, tumambay na lang tayo’t
Magkuwentuhan na lang sa kanto?

‘Wag mangamba
‘Di gagasta
Basta sumama ka
Bahala na.
Labas tayo
Sa’n ba kamo?
Sa’n man tayo aabutin ng kuwarenta ko

Sumama ka sa amin
‘Wag mo nang alalhanin
Wala kang pera (wala kang pera) (x2)
‘Wag mo nang ikahiya
‘Wag mo nang idahilan na
Wala kang pera (wala kang pera) (x2)
Ako rin.
(x2)

Kung lahat na lang dinadaan sa perang
Hindi rin naman abot ng kinikita,
Subukin nating nakawin ang araw
Tumakas sa isang bulalakaw.
Habulin man ng buong mundo
Sino ba sila para husgahan tayo?

Wala Kang Pera

Ars et incantatio. Pointyyy, a solo Filipino musician, organizes the chaos of their eclectic mix of jazz, punk, visual and Shibuya-kei, early electronic music, and metal in a pop format; delivering a mellow and charged musical experience.
At the core of Pointyyy's music is a mission to bring about positive change in the world by encouraging introspection and reflection. The lyrics, akin to catching up with your weird old friend, are relatable and thought-provoking, exploring the complexities of life and the world we live in. Mixing the mystical and the mundane, going with the flow and going against the grain, Pointyyy's music is a call to action, urging listeners to embrace their inner selves and work towards creating a better future, both individually and collectively. There is healing to be found in this cruel world, so let’s be safe, be sharp, and be Pointyyy
