So they decided to form a group that would help awaken the minds of troubled youth in their hometown. So they formed an alliance with Athony Cervantes whom is considered as a guitar extra ordinaire and James Rodriguez a well renowned drummer. They called themselves "SIAKOL", siakol pertaining to a free, happy and sometimes naughty state of mind.

Siakol immediately made their presence felt because of their hard - hitting songs and gained the respect of the public. Although considered as a very young group of talents, one of the most respected recording company recognized their potential and capabilities. Alpha Recording Company offered them a contract that will make them certified recording artist. Their first public appearance were as guest at a "Battle of the Bands" in their hometown in Paranaque, and from that day on it was already considered history in the making.

Asahan Mo

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wag kang mag-alala sa kabiguan ay di ka nag-iisa
Meron kang kapareho na maaari mong makapareha
Kaparehong mag-isip ginagawang laro ang pag-ibig
Nandyan lang siya sa sulok o baka sa gilid-gilid

Alisin na ang lungkot at 'wag na 'wag nang magmukmok
Oras na para ika'y lumigaya nasa isip lang ang takot
Huwag panghinaan ng loob eh ano kung ika'y mahuhulog

May sasalo sayo asahan mo

Huwag kang magpa-api sa pagkatalo ay pwede kang gumanti
Bakit ka paaapekto di siya kawalan sayong sarili
Kabaligtaran mag-isip sa isang saglit ika'y pinagpalit
Hayaan mo na siya sa ere o dyan sa tabi-tabi

Alisin na ang lungkot at 'wag na 'wag nang magmukmok
Oras na para ika'y lumigaya nasa isip lang ang takot
Huwag panghinaan ng loob eh ano kung ika'y mahuhulog
May sasalo sayo asahan mo

Wag kang mag-alala sa kabiguan ay di ka nag-iisa
Meron kang kapareho na maaari mong makapareha
Kaparehong mag-isip ginagawang laro ang pag-ibig
Nandyan lang siya sa sulok o baka sa gilid-gilid

Alisin na ang lungkot at 'wag na 'wag nang magmukmok
Oras na para ika'y lumigaya nasa isip lang ang takot
Huwag panghinaan ng loob eh ano kung ika'y mahuhulog
May sasalo sayo asahan mo

Alisin na ang lungkot at 'wag na 'wag nang magmukmok
Oras na para ika'y lumigaya nasa isip lang ang takot

Huwag panghinaan ng loob eh ano kung ika'y mahuhulog
May sasalo sayo asahan mo ah

Fear should not be in their mind, and they should be brave and fall in love again because someone will catch and support them.
