The song is described as a nostalgic tune “fitting enough to be a graduation anthem”. Written by
Ely Buendia, it mentions Kalayaan (translated as “freedom”), a dormitory building where he stayed while studying at
UP Diliman. Buendia later debunked theories that the song was about his friendship with his bandmates in a podcast interview in 2021. “That song was actually about my actual friends — the friends that was with me during my stay at Kalayaan,” he said. His further comments that he was never close with his bandmates sparked online backlash, to which he responded: “The music is all that matters, have you forgotten about that, and who wrote most of it? Just sayin'.” Drummer
Raimund Marasigan responded to Buendia's online comments by confirming that they only have a working relationship. “We would meet and play and jam,” he said, “and you don’t need to talk when you’re jamming. ''Meron din namang connection din 'yon'' (There’s still a connection).” ==Cover versions==
