Turn It Up - Hootie & The Blowfish, Walshy Fire

Once there was a thankless leader

Blinded by a golden ring

Now there’s no more peaceful gatherings

Take me 'cross the aisle now baby

Let me see how y’all get down

Take a hopeful sound and make it loud

I said, «Turn it up»

When I’ve had enough

I wanna feel the love

Turn it up (Turn it up, up)

Once there was a paradise where a boy saw suffering

He raised his voice up loud and began to sing

Oh, all the people gathered 'round him

He cried out a freedom song

Everyone began to sing along

Oh, he said, «Turn it up»

'Cause I’ve had enough

I wanna feel the love

Yeah, oh turn it up (Turn it up, up)

They said, «Be quiet, little girl» but you amplified the sound

Of a million broken hearts from all around

You can hear the children crying

It’s not safe to go outside

We’re free but we gotta keep our kids alive

Oh, y’all, we can’t let 'em down

Turn it up

'Cause I’ve had enough (Oh, yeah)

I wanna feel the love

Ah, come on, turn it up

Turn it up, oh

'Cause I’ve had enough (turn it up, oh)

I wanna feel the love

Oh, yeah, turn it up

Ah, turn it up, turn it up
