It was his entrance song to his fight against Floyd Mayweather, Jr.,[4] which he lost.[5]

It was written by Filipino well-known composer Lito Camo, who is also a close friend of Pacquiao.[1]

Music video

Pacquiao himself directed the four-minute-and-seventeen-second video.[1] It mostly shows the aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan; scenes from his previous fights, notably against Érik Morales and Juan Manuel Márquez; and videos of Pacquiao hurt during those fights, with blood on his face. It also features Filipinos praying religiously while smiling or crying; Pacquiao training before his fights; and him performing the song in a studio with a crowd cheering him on, singing along with the track and waving the Philippine flag proudly. At the end of the video, Pacquiao closes his eyes slowly, as if to pray.[1]
