REFLECTION
1. What does the song mean?
The title “Upuan” have connotative meaning. It refers to the executive chair either or national.
The song talks about the comfortable life by the one in the highest position or let’s say the one
who seated in Malacanang. The rich became richer and the poor became poorer. Instead,
people that are in the position will lead us to the right way, they just sit and did nothing to
make our society more harmonious, they never dare to stand up and watch and think of the
people around them. The only thing that the song wanted to tell is that they (the politicians)
must to look out the situation of the poor for them to realize the things that they done only for
themselves. The poor cities for the attention, good governance and good life.
2. What did the singer imply of the thing left to him/her?
He wrote the song as a calling for those who have power. The power to turn the lives of the
other people into better because he is saddened about the authority. Those persons behind
those high walls, living in a mansion, convoy. The persons who have the position, a position
which were given by the people who gave their trust. Being trusted is a privileged but they do
not see the essence of being a leader to lead the country and to improve the life of its people.
