Lagi ko nalang nililigtas ang iba,
Pero ang sarili ko,
Hindi ko man lang maisalba.
Ginagawa ko na lahat nang aking makakaya,
Pero sa lahat nang mga nagawa kong iyon,
Parang nagkukulang pa din ako sa paningin nila.
Lagi nalang hinuhusgahan at kinukumpara sa iba.
Kung sino pa yung mga tinulungan ko,
Hindi man lang nila ako naalala,
Hindi man lang nila ako kinamusta,
O tinanong man lang kung kailangan ko din ba ng tulong nila.
Ngayon.
Panahon na;
Upang unahin ko naman,
Ang sarili ko kesa ang iba.
Panahon na;
Upang hindi ko na isipin ang sasabihin nang iba,
Ako naman kahit mag-isa.

English version:

"My Turn"

I am always willing to help others.
However, when it comes to myself,
I'm not even sure I can save it.
I'm doing everything in my power,
But with everything I've done,
It still doesn't seem like enough to them.
Being judged and compared to others is a constant.
When it comes to those I assisted,
They had forgotten about me.
They didn't even ask how I was or if I needed assistance.
Now.
It's finally time;
To say that,
It's now my turn.
It's finally time;
Not to consider what others might say,
Even if I'm by myself all the way.
