The story is a fitting visualization of the track’s message: ALAMAT sings about not letting detractors hinder anyone from chasing their goals. The song, which was initially released on February 14 to mark the group’s first anniversary since their debut, also featured several different languages aside from Tagalog. 

Taneo sang in Ilocano, Valfer in Ilonggo, Gami and Alas in Cebuano, Jao in Pampango, R-Ji in Waray, Tomas in Bicolano, and Mo in Zambal. Incorporating their native languages has been a trademark of the group since the members all hailed from different parts of the Philippines.
