Lyrics:

By any means you got reasons
For being self-confident
You got some issues to deal with
Take a hundred percent

No more trying to meet their
Self-serving policies
Now come on raise your voice
So everybody can see

The time is ripe for hallelujah, hope and fray
Well, fate may play in your favor someday

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Our fists against the dirty business
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Our voices as antagonists
Come on, raise your voice
Make some noise
Long as we do, hey yeah
We got the choice
Our heart is the weapon to defeat that hate
Come on, stand up for what you got to say

Curb this madness for god´s sake
We gotta stop that mistake
We can save the defenseless
No matter what it takes

Turning away is easy
Awareness is just a start
Action is glorious
Just listen to your heart!

The time is ripe for hallelujah, hope and fray
Well, fate may play in your favor someday

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Our fists against the dirty business
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Our voices as antagonists
Come on, raise your voice
Make some noise
Long as we do, hey yeah
We got the choice
Our heart is the weapon to defeat that hate
Come on! Stand up for what you got to say

If you´ve been shaking your boots
We pick you up and rub off the dust
Going back to our roots
You´ll be surprised you can be robust

Vulnerable for so long
Weak individually
Together we can be so strong
United and breaking free

The time is ripe for hallelujah, hope and fray
Well, fate may play in your favor someday
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Our fists against the dirty business

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Our voices as antagonists, come on
Raise your voice
Make some noise
Long as we do, hey yeah
We got the choice
Our heart is the weapon to defeat that hate
Come on, stand up, for What you want

We can be Strong, been blind for too long
Let´s get together, we can make it better
I got to, I got to, I got to take it serious

Even tho this isnt my choice of music, I have to say its very well done. Great sound, and the singer is really good at what she does. Plus I gotta love the hot pink hair :) What type of music would you concider this to be? Country/pop? I hate labels but im curious, lol.

[RocquetteMusic]

@blasphema69 Happy to hear that :) Thank you! We would call it maybe "Powerpop with country touch" or something like that :) However, other suggestions very welcome! Sometimes it´s very hard for us to find the perfect description.

Great Video. The singer has a excellent voice, and she is very sexy without being slutty. I love the lyrics--political, but not preachy and a catchy, danceable melody. I wish you the greatest success. Where can I buy the album?

[RocquetteMusic]

@jesusjack Thank you! The album is available via our website (see video description), as well as on iTunes, CDbaby and Amazon.com! Thanks for listening!

What a great video and music! I am also a musician that started to make video for my songs but this is AMAZING!!!

[RocquetteMusic]

@quadrialby Thank you! The album is available via our website (see video description), as well as on iTunes, CDbaby and Amazon.com! Thanks for listening!

"Turn up the Volume" for the Horses!!!!

[MrsDCeased]

It seems Rocquette has found a fine line between genres. I would describe this song as a crossover country or a southern rock, depending on which side of the fence your viewing from.

[letmrunfree]

Thank you! You have more principles and courage than 99.999% of today’s human beings, especially those in politics and the entertainment industry.Rock on!!!

Ihr solltet unbedingt mal einen Eintrag über euch bei Wikipedia machen. Da schau ich nämlich immer als erstes nach einer Liste von den Alben von Bands die ich hör. Von euch Rocquette hab ich leider nichts gefunden. :/

Barbie, you are AMAZING in this vid!! :D
