itim na ulap Lyrics – Maki | from “KOLORCOASTER”

Maki’s KOLORCOASTER takes listeners on a vivid ride through emotions painted in colors, and “Itim na Ulap” brings the black clouds with gentle power. The Filipino singer-songwriter, who turned heads with the viral warmth of “Dilaw” and the melancholic pull of “Bughaw,” crafts this track as a heartfelt nod to lasting bonds. Produced by Shadiel Chan, it sits at track 8 in the 10-song arc, shifting from the sunset glow of “Kahel na Langit” to a deeper shade of commitment amid chaos. Lines like “Kapag itim na ang ulap / T’wing bumubuhos ang ulan sa aking mga mata / Oh, sana kasama pa rin kita” capture that raw wish for someone to stay through the downpours, even as time turns hair gray.

It’s got his signature indie pop touch—soft acoustics building to a quiet swell—that feels like a cozy shelter on a rainy night, echoing the vulnerability in “Nangungulila” but with more resolve. Maki wrote this during his “Maki-Concert” teasers last year, drawing from real-life waits and choices that stick. For fans of his trilogy of love songs (“Dilaw,” “Namumula,” “Bughaw”), this one grounds the highs in honest lows. Check our takes on “Dilaw” for its sunny certainty or “Kahel na Langit” for lingering warmth. Dive into the Itim na Ulap lyrics below and see why Maki’s debut feels like a full-spectrum hug for the heart.
