Lyrics

Verse 1

From the smallest office up the winding stair

A pens and paper ledger slips away somewhere

Corner to corner down the marble hall

Every hand is open never giving all

Chorus

Got a roof of promises that always leaks

Everyone is digging while the mountain peaks

Pass it up the ladder till it reaches light

Money moves in shadows through the sleepless night

Verse 2

They trade the working hours for a cheaper wage

Sell the public water on a greedier page

Cash out every project while the bridge still waits

Over crowd the offices behind the closing gates

Chorus

Got a roof of promises that always leaks

Everyone is digging while the mountain peaks

Pass it up the ladder till it reaches light

Money moves in shadows through the sleepless night

Bridge

From the barangay out to the senate floor

The same old song is knocking at the door

Take it step by step and again some more

Who is left to answer what the village saw

Chorus

Got a roof of promises that always leaks

Everyone is digging while the mountain peaks

Pass it up the ladder till it reaches light

Money moves in shadows through the sleepless night
