Midnight in Makati (Official Lyrics Video) | Ogla Project

Описание: The city feels different after midnight.

“Midnight in Makati” by Ogla Project captures the feeling of driving through Manila when the rain starts falling, the radio crackles, and memories surface without warning. Inspired by classic Japanese city pop and filtered through a modern OPM lens, this song is a love letter to late nights, urban loneliness, and the magic hidden in familiar streets.

This is for anyone who’s ever found themselves thinking too deeply in the backseat of a taxi—watching the city move while standing still inside.

🎵 Lyrics

Midnight in Makati
by Ogla Project

(Intro)

(Verse 1)
The neon's bleeding through the window of the taxi-cab
Chasing ghosts of memories that I never knew I had
Passing through the Ayala lights, everything’s a blur
Thinking 'bout the way we were, and who we really were.
I’m sipping on the static of the radio station
Lost inside this urban, late-night fascination.

(Chorus)
It’s midnight in Makati and the rain begins to fall
Tracing every shadow on the concrete office wall.
Sumasayaw sa ilalim ng ilaw ng lungsod
I’m losing my reflection in the rhythm and the flood.
One more turn, one more street, one more lonely beat
Searching for the magic in the Manila heat.

(Verse 2)
The cassette tape is hissing like a secret in my ear
The skyline is a promise that I’m never getting near.
Barya sa bulsa, and a heart that’s feeling heavy
I’m driving through the feelings that I didn't know were ready.
Stoplight turns to green, but I’m frozen in the glow
Watching all the people that I’ll never really know.

(Chorus)
It’s midnight in Makati and the rain begins to fall
Tracing every shadow on the concrete office wall.
Sumasayaw sa ilalim ng ilaw ng lungsod
I’m losing my reflection in the rhythm and the flood.
One more turn, one more street, one more lonely beat
Searching for the magic in the Manila heat.

(Bridge)
Tumingin sa langit, walang bituin
Just the glow of the towers and the wind in the scene.

(Outro)
Midnight…
Manila heat…
Sa ilalim ng ilaw…
Stay gold, Manila.
