Turn it up loud

They said keep quiet, stay in your lane,

Your voice doesn't matter in their game,

I've been holding back for way too long,

Now it's time to prove them wrong.

I tried to blend in, tried to stay small,

But I ended up feeling nothing at all,

Safe and silent was their advice,

But I'm done paying that price.

Turn it up loud, let them all hear,

Turn it up loud, make it crystal clear,

I won't be silent anymore,

Turn it up loud, shake the floor,

This is my time, this is my sound,

Turn it up loud, won't back down.

Standing stronger than I did before,

Done with hiding behind their door,

Let them cover their ears if they choose,

I'm giving them everything I've got to lose.

Now the world is listening to what I say,

I carved out my power in my own way,

Others are raising their voices too,

Turn it up loud, that's what we do.
