As a kid, my greatest fear was losing you. Akala ko kapag tumanda na ako, mas madali kong harapin ‘yon. Hindi pala.</p><p>&quot;Today, I say goodbye to you, my mama. I told myself I wouldn’t sing, but deep in my heart, I knew I’d regret not singing for you one last time. This was your favorite song. Now, it has a whole different meaning for me. Every line captures how I see you and what I’m feeling. I would give everything I own...just to have you back again. I love you so much. For Always. I will miss you forever.&quot;</p><div><iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=476&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fweb.facebook.com%2Ficeseguerra%2Fvideos%2F9911777962283884%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=267&amp;t=0" width="267" height="476" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>In May last year, Ice surprised Mommy Caring during his sold-out  &quot;Videoke Hits&quot; concert held at the Music Museum in San Juan City, when he gave her a special message during the latter part of the show. “Thank you for believing in me that I could sing.

Ikaw lang,” he tearfully shared. </p><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/celebrities/2025/6/28/ice-seguerra-on-launching-a-new-song-after-his-mommy-caring-s-passing-my-heart-is-shattered-0833"><strong>READ: Ice Seguerra on launching a new song after his Mommy Caring’s passing: ‘My heart is shattered’</strong></a></div><div><br/></div><p>In another post, Ice dedicated his newly released single “Shelter of the Broken” for his dearly departed mother.</p><p>On his Instagram account, he wrote, “Mama, you’ve always been my quiet strength.

In post last June 30, he wrote, “Wala pa akong buong lakas. Wala pa akong masabi.</p><p>&quot;Pero itong kantang ’to… it came out the day after I lost the most important woman in my life. And somehow, mas lalo ko siyang naiintindihan ngayon Para ’to sa lahat ng kagaya kong pilit bumabangon kahit durog. Na kahit hindi mo alam kung paano, umaasa ka pa ring may silong. Na kahit masakit, may pag-asa pa rin. Mama, this is yours. You are in every word. Kasama ka sa bawat linya, sa bawat nota, sa bawat paghinga. Mahal na mahal kita.&quot;</p><p>The talented singer is also set to perform in the upcoming concert <em>Being Ice: The Concert Experience </em>this coming September at the Newport Performing Arts Theater in Pasay City. The two-night event promises to be a “all-original musical journey from Ice’s most personal album yet, one that spans a lifetime of lived experiences. Each track is an anthem of truth, courage, and identity, all coming from the rawest and most truthful corners of Ice’s heart,” according to Fire and Ice Entertainment.</p>
