This song could wake the poor people who are blindfolded when it comes to our justice.

Answer:
"Tatsulok" (Filipino word literally translated to Triangle; paraphrased as Pyramid) is a Filipino folk song originally composed by Rom Dongeto in 1989 and performed in 1991 by his trio folk-rock band, called "Buklod", which includes Noel Cabangon and Rene Boncocan. The song explains to a young man that there's an ongoing war and that the war is just the effect of a bigger problem. It tells the young man to take action and topple a pyramid upside-down to end a never-ending war between the rich and the poor.
The song was popularized in 2007 by the band, Bamboo, when they released their third album We Stand Alone Together with their version of Tatsulok along with it. Since the release of Bamboo's Tatsulok, the song has become the anthem of young Filipino activists.
