'Titik' is a double agent. It can be the letters A, B, C... you know, the building blocks of your 'Marites' group chat messages. But it's also the 'lyrics' of that LSS-inducing song you can't get out of your head. 'Anong **titik** ng kantang 'yan?' is how you ask for the lyrics, not which letter of the alphabet it starts with.
Context determines whether it means 'letter' or 'lyrics'. 'Titik ng awit' explicitly means 'lyrics of the song'.
