The project was conceptualized by Ian Tayao 8 years back when he was still active with his previous band (Queso). The perfect chance to manifest the idea did not become so vivid until he was able to cosmically find members or better yet the members finding him. Tayao has dedicated his life to the constant progressiveness of music. Soul and Groove is his armada and with the addition of his strong vocal execution, well let’s just say that it’s outstanding. Francis Magat has proven to be one of the Senior Musicians in the local current scene today with his intimate depth of musical knowledge as well as the musical execution. With acts like Sound, Salindiwa, Sampaguita, and And Sinosikat under his belt, coining him as an experienced musician would prove itself to be an understatement. Robert Dela Cruz is a highly respected Drummer and is considered if not one of the best; the best drummer there is in the country. With the talent of being able to move with “light speed” through percussive intonations paired up with the ability to make the drums translate itself articulately would imbibe that Robert is more than just your ordinary drummer. Extra Ordinary. Louis Isok is the new breed of guitar. Considered as a Promil abuser when he was a child, Louis does not make his young age as an excuse for him not being able to par up to his colleagues, but uses it as an advantage for being able to come up with new and exciting vantage points to produce songs and musical intensity. Fusing all of these factors together would prove to be rather daunting at first for the reason that the individual talents of the group are stand alone, but what proves to be even more amazing is how the group manages to rise as one solid army when they are given the proper opportunity to share to the world of music that there is something bigger than the personalities involved and there is a greater purpose to serve.

Fahira
WilaBaliW Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was the one
I finished it all
Guilty as charged
Walking alone
Who can drive me home?

Run...
If you see it this way then I'd rather be gone

Burn them bodies, don't leave them frozen
Hard as a stone, heart of a living dead
Burn them bodies, don't leave them frozen
I can't relate
I refuse to stay pointless

Time and time again
Take that lid off
Slowly killing me
Breathing pointlessly
Can I remember this time?

Open your eyes so we can now move on
Burn them bodies, don't leave them frozen
Open their hearts, return where they belong
Burn them bodies, don't leave them frozen
I can't relate
I refuse to stay...
I refuse

Still...
Everybody's out of control
Everything is out of phase
Everybody's out of control
Overworked and underpaid

No we don't
We just don't quit

Open your eyes so we can now move on
Burn them bodies, don't leave them frozen
Open their hearts, return where they belong
Burn them bodies, don't leave them frozen
I can't relate
I refuse to stay...
I refuse
I refuse

I refuse
I

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to WilaBaliW's song "Fahira" carry emotional weight and reflect on themes of guilt, isolation, and a refusal to give in to pointlessness. The opening lines, "I was the one, I finished it all, guilty as charged, walking alone, who can drive me home?" suggest that the singer has done something they regret and now feels isolated from those around them. This sense of guilt and isolation is reinforced by the repeated refrain, "I can't relate, I refuse to stay pointless." The repetition of this refrain emphasises the singer's determination not to let their actions define them or drag them down into purposelessness.

The chorus of the song, "Open your eyes so we can now move on, burn them bodies, don't leave them frozen," seems to suggest a desire to confront the past and move forward rather than being stuck in a state of guilt and isolation. The imagery of burning bodies suggests a desire to let go of the past and any negative emotions associated with it, rather than clinging onto them and being frozen in a state of regret.

The final lines of the song, "Still...Everybody's out of control, everything is out of phase, everybody's out of control, overworked and underpaid, no we don't, we just don't quit," suggest that despite the difficulties the singer faces and the sense of isolation they feel, they remain determined to persevere and not give up.

Overall, "Fahira" is a powerful and emotionally charged song that deals with themes of guilt, isolation, and the struggle to find meaning and purpose in life.

Emotionally numb and unable to feel anything

Time and time again
Repeatedly

Take that lid off
Open up and be vulnerable

Slowly killing me
Causing emotional pain and suffering

Breathing pointlessly
Living without purpose

Can I remember this time?
Can I learn from my mistakes and not repeat them?

Open your eyes so we can now move on
Be aware of your surroundings and let go of the past

Open their hearts, return where they belong
Encourage people to be open and honest so they can find their place

Still...
However...

Everybody's out of control
Everyone is lost and without direction

Everything is out of phase
Nothing seems to be going as it should

Overworked and underpaid
Struggling to survive and make ends meet

No we don't
We do not give up or quit

I refuse
I will not give in or give up

I've watched them earlier at Liberty Center (Redhorse Musiklaban) and it's my first time to watch them seriously...

They're actually Good. Some of their songs are Catchy like the "Illuminate" but this song definitely not and I don't like it !

But what matters is they are really good on their craft/art/music on what they do and many people appreciate them.

Just respect our Local Bands and Support them. :)
