Quit Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They thought I’d cower in fear and break
Thought they got advantage to take
But I guess they’re blinded eyes full of hate
I’m gon’ make them see why
I didn’t bend, how could I even break?
In every battle lost, know they celebrate
Well, it’s good to hear their cries when they fail
Praying for my downfall, they thought I would quit
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ll never know, I guess we’ll never know
If I would go down, guess wе’ll never know
No, I don’t know, I guess wе’ll never know
I guess we’ll never know, I guess we’ll never know
[Chorus]
Ah, ayokong mamatay
They tryna kill the colours in my mind
When all my heart wanted was to be kind, oh
I’m afraid to die alive
Losing myself, trying to be a lie
So I’d be picture perfect in your eyes
[Verse 2]
I said I’m alright, that’s why I would tell them when I could cry
Chose to be kind, but these people so evil, my, my
Come inside, inside of my mind
See I’m wrestling all my demons up on this side
Still faking a smile, I’m fine but it’s gonna take a while
‘Cause I’m all too familiar with this kind of pain
Kahit ‘nong gawin, I won’t run away
Bukas, makalawa lang alam kong may darating na grasya, grasya, grasya
[Pre-Chorus]
We’ll never know, I guess we’ll never know
If I would go down, guess we’ll never know
No, I don’t know, I guess we’ll never know
I guess we’ll never know, I guess we’ll never
[Chorus]
Ah, ayokong mamatay
They tryna kill the colours in my mind
When all my heart wanted was to be kind, oh
I’m afraid to die alive
Losing myself, trying to be a lie
So I’d be picture perfect in your eyes, oh
[Interlude]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
[Chorus]
Ah, ayokong mamatay (Ayokong mamatay, oh)
They tryna kill the colours in my mind
When all my heart wanted was to be kind, oh (Oh)
I’m afraid to die alive (Ah)
Losing myself, trying to be a lie (I’m losing myself)
So I’d be picture perfect in your eyes, oh
Summary of this Song Lyrics
____________________________________
SB19’s “Quit” song is a powerful anthem of resilience and self-acceptance in the face of adversity. The artist reflects on how others expected them to break under pressure or lose themselves to hate, but they chose to stand strong and remain kind. Despite being surrounded by negativity and people celebrating their downfalls, they continue to fight inner battles, refusing to let pain or fear define them.
The lyrics blend English and Filipino, with lines like “Ayokong mamatay” (I don’t want to die) expressing a deep desire to live authentically and not just survive while losing one’s true self. The artist struggles with trying to fit others’ expectations—wanting to appear “picture perfect”—yet realizes the toll it takes on their identity.
While the pain and emotional weight are evident, there’s also hope and belief in grace (*grasya*) coming in the future. The song explores mental health, emotional endurance, and the courage it takes to choose kindness over bitterness. It’s a declaration of inner strength, showing that even in moments of vulnerability and doubt, the artist refuses to give up. Through vulnerability, they reclaim their voice and identity, vowing to stay true to themselves, no matter what others think.
