Carried by a powerful rhythm, it soars with the courage to face the unknown and while being true to yourself. It’s a song for those standing on the edge, ready to take the leap, trusting that the fall might just lead to flight. All it takes is one leap of faith to finally break free.</p><div style="text-align:justify"><br/></div><p>&quot;<em>Walang sinumang makakahila muli </em></p><div><em>Kahit na bumalik &#x27;di na makakaulit </em></div><div><em>&#x27;Di kailangang kalimutan basta’t ika’y kumawala </em></div><div><em>Walang ibang pagpipilian kundi ang sarili lang</em></div><p><em>Kundi ang sarili lang</em>...&quot; </p><div><br/></div><p style="text-align:justify">With <strong><u>Angia</u></strong>&#x27;s powerful and beautiful voice permeating on her brand of alternative rock-influenced pop music, it&#x27;s really difficult to comprehend that her leap of faith will pay dividends.</p>
