Lyrics

I was seven with a broken amp
Buzzing like a wire in my hand
Neighbors screaming through the wall
But that little noise meant everything
No money, no plan
Just six strings and a shaking hand
Every chord felt like a fight
Every mistake felt right
They said “turn it down”
I said “turn me up”
They said “grow up”
I said “not enough”
Turn it loud
Till the speakers crack
Turn it loud
There’s no going back
Turn it
No rules, no school
No saving face
Just me and the sound
In a small dark space
Turn it loud
First show, five kids in a bar
Two didn’t care, one left the door ajar
But when the kick drum hit my chest
I knew right then I’d never rest
It ain’t about fame
It ain’t about gold
It’s about that second
When your blood runs cold
They said “be safe”
I said “be real”
They said “that won’t pay”
I said “that’s the deal”
Turn it loud
Till the ceiling shakes
Turn it loud
Let the silence break
No god, no boss
No saving grace
Just sweat on the floor
And a crooked face
Turn it loud
Feedback screaming like a siren
Hands bleeding but I keep trying
If this is wrong, I don’t wanna be right
This is the only thing that feels alive
Turn it loud
Till it burns red
Turn it loud
Till I drop dead
No cure, no plan
No other way
If I lose it all
At least I played
Turn it loud
