Jessica Louise - Sing It Loud
from Voices Of Our Vote: #MYAAPIVote Album by Various Artists
about
18MillionRising presents Voices of Our Vote: #MyAAPIVote Album - a compilation album featuring 32 politically empowering tracks by an eclectic mix of Asian American musicians. Given the current political climate of anti-immigrant rhetoric and increased racial tension, turning out to vote as an AAPI community this November 8th is more important than ever. At 18MillionRising, we believe that music can shift hearts and minds, and with the release of the Voices of Our Vote: #MyAAPIVote Album, we believe music can activate Asian America to the polls.
This album was created in partnership with the Asian North Americans music curation platform TRAKTIVIST (traktivist.com); with Kollaboration (www.kollaboration.org) who supports APIs in arts and entertainment by showcasing and connecting creative talents; with the oldest currently running Asian American open mic space Tuesday Night Project (tuesdaynightproject.org); and the South Asian diaspora music and online mixtape site Mishthi Music (mishthimusic.com). All proceeds earned from the album will be donated to 18MillionRising (18MillionRising.org), an organization promoting AAPI civic engagement, influence, and movement by leveraging the power of technology and social media.

lyrics
Young girl did you think everything was alright
Cuz I’ve seen too many people trying to pick a fight
We’re losing everything we’d proudly built before
So we can’t just sit back anymore while we let them write the score to a dangerous encore
Cuz the truth is that we’ve got to say
Something before they get their way
Just use the voice inside let your words take flight
You know you’ve got that right
Go ahead roll down your windows
Sing along & give it all you got
If you feel me put your hands up
Don’t take your time, we’ve only got one shot
Let me hear you sing it loud
Ohhhh
I’ve found the more I say the more I make a change
I use my song in hopes that you might feel the same
Because as crazy as this seems, your made up of more than dreams. You’ve got that light
You can be that change, maybe rearrange
we’ve gotta stick together change it for the better
Go ahead roll down your windows
Sing along & give it all you got
If you feel me put your hands up
Don’t take your time, we’ve only got one shot
Let me hear you sing it loud
Ohhhh
The truth is we’ve got to say
Something before they get their way
Just use the voice inside let your words take flight
You know you’ve got that right
Go ahead roll down your windows
Sing along & give it all you got
If you feel me put your hands up
Don’t take your time, we’ve only got one shot
Let me hear you sing it loud
Ohhhh
Go ahead roll down your windows
Sing along & give it all you got
If you feel me put your hands up
Don’t take your time, we’ve only got one shot
Let me hear you sing it loud
Ohhhh
Cuz I’ve seen too many people trying to pick a fight
We’re losing everything we’d proudly built before
So we can’t just sit back anymore while we let them write the score to a dangerous encore
Cuz the truth is that we’ve got to say
Something before they get their way
Just use the voice inside let your words take flight
You know you’ve got that right
Go ahead roll down your windows
Sing along & give it all you got
If you feel me put your hands up
Don’t take your time, we’ve only got one shot
Let me hear you sing it loud
Ohhhh
I’ve found the more I say the more I make a change
I use my song in hopes that you might feel the same
Because as crazy as this seems, your made up of more than dreams. You’ve got that light
