Ben&Ben officially released its song “Nakikinig Ka Ba Sa Akin” Wednesday evening with lyrics inspired by the quarantine brought by the COVID-19 pandemic.
‘Nakikinig Ka Ba Sa Akin’ OUT NOW on all platforms! Surprise,” Ben&Ben wrote in the caption of their Facebook post.
A raw version of the song was released in April. “Naglalagay pa lang kami ng instruments ng band this week, can’t wait,” Ben&Ben said back then.
Aside from “Nakikinig Ka Ba Sa Akin,” the nine-piece collective band also released “Lifetime” amid the lockdown. The song was inspired by the love story of a certain “Anne jou” who shared her experience in loving her best friend in secret, only to find out years after that he was once in love with her too. Unfortunately, the guy was about to get married when they admitted they had feelings for each other.
Among Ben&Ben hits are “Kathang Isip,” “Maybe the Night,” “Make it with You,” “Pagtingin,” and “Masyado pang Maaga.”

Nakikinig Ka Ba Sa Akin Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sasalubungin kita sa dulo ng ‘yong galit
Uunawain kita para ‘di tayo maging
Epidemyang ‘di matapos-tapos sugpuin
O problemang di makita, sa’n ang salarin
Tayo ba ay naging makasarili?
Sarado ba’ng tenga sa mga hiling?
[Chorus]
Nakikinig ka ba sa akin?
Hindi kita gustong awayin
Pareho ang ating hangarin
Ang kadiliman ay basagin
[Verse 2]
Kung meron kang pupurihin
Sige lang, gawin mo yan
Kung meron kang babatikusin
Sige lang, gawin mo yan
Mahalaga’y bawat isa’y mapakinggan
[Chorus]
Nakikinig ka ba sa akin?
Hindi kita gustong awayin
Pareho ang ating hangarin
Ang kadiliman ay basagin
[Bridge]
Patawad na sa pagkukulang
Naririnig kita
[Chorus]
Nakikinig ka ba sa akin?
Hindi kita gustong awayin
Pareho ang ating hangarin
Ang kadiliman ay basagin
Nakikinig ka ba sa akin?
Hindi kita gustong awayin
Pareho ang ating hangarin
Ang kadiliman ay basagin
Nakikinig ka ba? (Sasalubungin kita sa dulo ng ‘iyong galit)
Nakikinig ka ba?
Nakikinig ka ba? (Sasalubungin kita sa dulo ng ‘iyong galit)
Nakikinig ka ba?
Sasalubungin kita sa dulo ng ‘yong galit
