Lyrics
The "Anak, just checking in" text glows on my screen
It's 2:17 on a Tuesday, if you know what I mean
The floorboards are cold on my feet and the fridge has a hum
And I'm trying to translate the man I've become
[Chorus]
And the radio plays a structural sound
Yeah, the kick drum is shaking the insecure ground
It's just four chords and truth that I've been needing
Suddenly my whole damn framework has meaning
[Verse 2]
I remember last Sunday, the steam from the sinigang
The quiet that settles when nobody says the wrong thing
You looked at my hands, full of splinters and grime
And said, "This house is built solid. It just takes some time."
[Chorus]
And the radio plays a structural sound
Yeah, the kick drum is shaking the insecure ground
It's just four chords and truth that I've been needing
Suddenly my whole damn framework has meaning
[Bridge]
And it's not in the English, it's not in Tagalog
It's a language of rebar and bass line and God
They gave me a blueprint, and I'm building it wrong
Or maybe I'm building it right with this song
[Outro]
Yeah, the radio plays
A structural sound
