Pang Akademiko o Hindi, ang asignaturang Filipino
Para ito sa kahit kanino
Mapagawa ka man ng bionote,
O kahit anino pa to

Pero sa gamit ng kaalaman at husay,
At sa tamang paggamit neto,
Ito'y magiging hubog sa bansa natin
Ang wikang Filipino, ang wikang dapat angkinin.

Mapa-likhang awit man ito,
Ito'y may sining, gamit sa likhang-pagiisip
Ako'y estudyante na Filipino,
Para sa ipagmalaki ang hubog neto

Gamit ang tamang etika,
Sa pagsulat para umabot sa tala,
Ito'y magiging tamang paraan,
Sa pag-unlad ng nakalaan

Kau melompat kesana kemari
Kau melompat tanpa tahu perasaan ini
Kau melompat tanpa etika
Kau melompat hilang seketika

Kau bukan jelmaan pangeran
Akan tetapi hadirmu membuat orang terheran
Sekolahku adalah tempatmu
Hijau pohon dan rumput sudah menyatu denganmu

Aku mual dengan serba hijau
Karena sayur hijau bukanlah kesukaanku
Akan tetapi pohon hijau adalah istimewa
Pohon hijau tempat berteduh hati yang merana

Oh kodok..
Mengapa tembok sekolahku juga hijau?
Oh kodok..
Aku semakin sulit menemukanmu

Teyot teblung teyot teblung
Sekolahku hijau nan sejuk
Teyot teblung teyot teblung
Adiwiyata adalah gelar sekolahku

-Kediri, 21 Maret 2018-
Maybe they were right, maybe I am crazy
And what else could possibly be done
When so many of my friends fought the oceans depths
And the oceans have always won

Now its my turn to slay the beast
Beneath the endless blue
Maybe I'll emerge victorious
Maybe I'll get to see you...


-For Etika and Javier
The ocean represents depression, and though two of the three people this is dedicated to drowned in some body of water, depression quite literally killed all of them.

And they were my friends...

The second part is about me wanting to dive into the same ocean that Etika did, to see if I could survive what he did not, while simultaneously hoping that I don't for the possibility of seeing him again.
