LYRICS

I didn't know today would be our last
Or that I'd have to say goodbye to you so fast
I'm so numb, I can't feel anymore
Prayin' you'd just walk back through that door
And tell me that I was only dreamin'
You're not really gone as long as I believe
There will be another angel
Around the throne tonight
Your love lives on inside of me
And I will hold on tight
It's not my place to question
Only God knows why
I'm just jealous of the angels
Around the throne tonight
You always made my troubles feel so small
And you were always there to catch me when I'd fall
In a world where heroes come and go
Well God just took the only one I know
So I'll hold you as close as I can
Longing for the day, when I see your face again
But until then
God must need another angel
Around the throne tonight
Your love lives on inside of me
And I will hold on tight
It's not my place to question
Only God knows why
I'm just jealous of the angels
Around the throne tonight
Singin' hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
I'm just jealous of the angels
Around the throne tonight

MIAMI, FLORIDA • MARCH 2026 The Growing Pains of Greatness: Alex Eala's 60-Minute Masterclass in Resilience at the Miami Open The 20-year-old Filipina falls to KarolĂ­na Muchová 6-0, 6-2 in the Round of 16 — and the Czech Curse extends to 0-13 — but the scoreline tells less than half the story of a young woman learning to dismantle the best in the world. Alex Eala competes at the 2026 Miami Open, where she advanced to the Round of 16 before falling to KarolĂ­na Muchová. (PinoyBuilt graphic) There is a specific kind of sting that comes with a 6-0, 6-2 scoreline — especially when it falls on the shoulders of a nation's sporting standard-bearer. In the humid air of the Grandstand Court at Hard Rock Stadium ...

Learn Filipino • April 2026 Learn Tagalog: Exploring the Soul of Destiny with "Tadhana" by Up Dharma Down From indie breakout to pambansang anthem: how one OPM song became the gateway for Filipino Americans rediscovering their roots—and what the word tadhana reveals about our deepest values. Now with three grammar lessons for Fil-Am kids and adults who never had formal Pilipino classes. Tadhana — the Filipino concept of destiny — captured in one of OPM's most enduring songs. I was driving on I-80 through Vallejo with my bunso when I first really heard it—not as background noise, but as a full reckoning. She was playing DJ from her iPhone, tapping through Spotify, which I love for h...

In the Filipino-American experience, we often talk about "building"—building a life, building a legacy, and building a future on Turtle Island . "Wrestling is a metaphor for our collective experience. It’s about finding your footing, staying grounded, and facing ev...
