[Extended Instrumental: Minimal, soft synth, gentle piano, ambient, adlibs]

Uh, oh... oh...
ding ding ding ding ding...
Mmm... (oh....)
...

[Verse 1: Light, bouncy, rhythmic, introspective]
Pare, ang bigat ng buhay—still hustlin’ for my folks (yeah)
Nine dreams in my head, tumakbo mula sa umaga
Dalawang kamay, walang humpay, no time to fake
Every scar tells a story, bawat pasa may katotohanan
Sa gabi, I ease my blues, parang alon
Back on the grind, payin’ my dues

[Verse 2: Groovy bass, percussion, call-and-response]
Every morning, clock in, eyes on that prize (keep pushin’!)
Walang maskara, carving out my future, sukat ng pangarap
Kahit magaspang, I stay true
Lunes, crew n’ I, breakin’ through (word!)
Hustle echoes mula sa kalsada hanggang studio

[Pre-Chorus: Dynamic, rising]
Trial lifts me high, pinapalitan ang sakit
Kahit madilim, puso gives daan
Keep grindin’, keep risin’—no delay
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8...9!
(ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting...ting!)

[Chorus: High-energy, bouncy beat, onomatopoeic hook]
Hey, I’m that workin’ man, kahit sa dilim, I shine (workin’ man!)
Ain’t nobody stoppin’ me—I’m ready to slay
Chasin’ dreams, payin’ dues, singin’ my blues
Clock it! ding ding ding ding ding, ding ding ding ding ding!
Proclaim—my workin’ man blues (oh, oh, yeah!)
Clock it! ding ding ding ding ding, ding ding ding ding ding!
(ting ting ting ting ting... ting ting ting ting... ting!)

[Verse 3: High energy, reflective]
Minsan, naisip ko, baka iwan ko na lahat (what if?)
Pero pag nakita ko ang ngiti ng bata, balik ang lakas
Hardship becomes hustle, pain turns to art
Kahit madapa, apoy sa puso’y todo (that’s right)

[Bridge: Bold, energetic]
Keep pushin’, keep risin’—wala nang hadlang
Apoy sa loob, liwanag sa paligid (light it up!)
Every tear and struggle turns to gold
Sumama, y’all—let’s ride

[Verse 4: Motivational, reflective]
Tumingin sa salamin, makita ang laban
Bawat marka, parang medalya—patunay ng laban
Mahabang gabi, mabigat na pasanin, pero apoy nananatili
Workin’ man blues push me to breakthrough (yeah!)

[Pre-Chorus Reprise: Rebuild]
Trial lifts me up, pinapalitan ang sakit
Kahit sa dilim, puso gives daan
Keep grindin’, keep risin’—no delay
(ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting...ting!)

[Chorus Final: High-energy, catchy]
Hey, I’m that workin’ man, buong gabi, hindi sumusuko (workin’ man!)
Laging handa—no plan to lose
Chasin’ dreams, payin’ dues, singin’ my blues
Clock it! ding ding ding ding ding, ding ding ding ding ding!
Shout it—my workin’ man blues (oh, oh, yeah!)
Clock it! ding ding ding ding ding, ding ding ding ding ding!
(ting ting ting ting ting... ting ting ting ting... ting!)

[Outro: Mellow, minimal]
Habang hina ang tunog, kwento ko’y umaalab
Pawis at pag-asa, marka ng liwanag
My workin’ man blues carry on—steady and true (uh, oh)
ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting!
