Lyrics – Turn It Up
In the middle of a mixed-up world
Feeling like we’re going round in circles
Empty promises and empty words
Leave us hungering for something real
Must be a way to rise above the noise
Things will never change if we stay silent
We can find a way to fill the void
Build the world of peace we want to see
Now is the time to let the truth come out
What we need is a voice
Together we can be a blast of sound
If we stand, if we stand by our choice
Turn it up, turn it up
We’re gonna stand up
For what we believe in
Turn it up, turn it up
It’s time to wake up
And fight for our dreams
Turn it up, turn it up
Well never give up:
Our hope has a reason
Turn it up, turn it up,
Turn it up, turn it up,
Turn it up, up, up, up
People put up their invisible walls
Keeping out the others from their circles
The more the barrier is strong and tall
The more they build a prison for themselves
But there’s a way to burn the barriers down
AII it takes is a spark
We’ll see the fire spreading all around
Making way, making way through the dark
Turn it up, turn it up
We’re gonna stand up
For what we believe in
Turn it up, turn it up
It’s time to wake up
And fight for our dreams
Turn it up, turn it up
Well never give up:
Our hope has a reason
Turn it up, turn it up,
Turn it up, turn it up,
Turn it up, up, up, up
We will rise above all the noise,
above the confusion
We will speak, we’ll lift up our voice
and make a difference
We will shine, we’ll burn like a flame
that lights up the darkness
We will stand together as one
As one we’ll sing:
Turn it up, turn it up
We’re gonna stand up
Far what we believe in
Turn it up, turn it up
It’s time to wake up
And fight for our dreams
Turn it up, turn it up
Well never give up:
Our hope has a reason
Turn it up, turn it up,
Turn it up, turn it up,
Turn it up, up, up, up
Turn it up!
