BE IBA (Filipino)

Pula
Itim
Bughaw
Dilaw
Berde
Puti
Kayumanggi

(Repeat 4x)

Sabihin man nila na ika’y isang baduy
OK lang kaibigan, totoong tao ka naman
Iwasan ang mga plastik,
Mga ahas sa dilim
Silang mga matapobre ay huwag mong pansinin

Huwag kang mahihiya kung ika’y walang katulad
Itaas ang ‘yong kamay at ikaw ay lumipad
Tanggapin ang katotohanan na ika’y nag-iisa at ika’y ibang iba
Just be iba

Chorus:

OK lang na be iba
Be ikaw, Be iba dahil ika’y nag-iisa
Just be iba

Hindi kinakailangan na ikaw ay sumabay
Sa uso na sa utak ang huwad ang naglagay
Huwag mong paniwalaan ang sinasabi nila
Na ika’y hamak na pobre at wala kang halaga
Malaking kasinungalingan
Huwag na huwag mong pakinggan
Mangarap ka na lamang at higpit mo ‘tong hawakan
Pilit ka mang nakawan
Ay inday! Ika’y lumaban
Just be iba

Repeat Chorus

Iba’t ibang mukha
Iba’t ibang mata
Tingnan mo ang bahaghari
Di ba’t iba’t iba ang lahi
Iba’t ibang galaw
Iba’t ibang pananaw
Mas makulay ang mundo kung tayo’y iba’t iba
Just be iba

Repeat Chorus

Pula

(Repeat 4x)

Iba’t ibang mukha
Iba’t ibang mata
Tingnan mo ang bahaghari
Di ba’t iba’t iba ang lahi
Iba’t ibang galaw
Iba’t ibang pananaw
Mas makulay ang mundo kung tayo’y iba’t iba
Just be iba

OK lang na be iba
Be ikaw, Be iba dahil ika’y nag-iisa
Just be iba 2x

Aaahh

Others may label you as uncool
It's alright, friend, you're true anyway
Avoid hypocrites, snakes in the shadow
Don't waste your time with haughty people

Don't be shy if you are like no other
Raise your hands and fly
Accept the truth that you are uniquely you
and that you are different
Just be different

It's ok to be different
Be yourself, be different as you are
Just be different

It's not necessary that you go with the current
Trends planted in your mind by the pretentious
Don't believe in what they tell you
That you're ill-fated who has no value
A huge deception
Don't you ever listen
Just keep on dreaming and hold on it tight
They may rob it from you
Hey "inday"! Fight back
Just be different

It's ok to be different
Be yourself, be different as you are
Just be different

Assorted faces
Different lenses
Gaze upon the rainbow
Isn't there different races?
Various moves
Wide range of views
The world is so much colourful if we are all diverse
Just be different

It's ok to be different
Be yourself, be different as you are
Just be different
