The narrator then decided to stay in the Philippines for good in the lyrics "Take me back in your arms Manila", "Promise me you'll never let go", and "I'm coming home to stay".

Take a walk with me around Port Area Manila Philippines. I've been to Port Area Manila Philippines plenty of times, especially around the BASECO Compound, but I've never been to this place! It was so cool to actually discover a place that I've never seen before, so that was a really exciting part! The reality is, this area in Port Area Manila is literally a stone throw away from the famous walled city of Intramurous Manila. Just seeing a drastic change from old heritage style Philippines, to a very impoverished area, was definitely a sight to see, well at least for me it was.
