about

Play Me Louder is an energetic, lively call to the Universe. There is a beloved quote by Saint Francis of Assisi: "Make me an instrument." This song was inspired by his prayer. It's a calling in of joy, of purpose, of wanting to live a big life and make a big noise. We're not here to play small. Play Me Louder is here to take up space and ignite your soul. (And yes, we do hope you'll turn it up and play it louder!)

lyrics

Lyrics:

I came here
On a mission
But no one
Told me what it was

I couldn’t see it
I couldn’t hear it
Through all of
The noise and fuzz

I’ve been wandering
Always searching
With only
The lantern of my soul

What’s the point?
Oh what’s the difference?
I could use a
Little guidance I suppose

Play me louder
Turn me up, unleash the sound
Play me louder
Kiss the skies, ignite the ground
Play me louder
Or don’t
Play me at all
Play me at all

I awaken
It’s a new day
And everything’s
The same old same old same

I’ve kept my colors
Within the hard lines
But I want to
Fill the whole damn page

Play me louder
Turn me up, unleash the sound
Play me louder
Kiss the skies, ignite the ground
Play me louder
Or don’t
Play me at all
Play me at all
Just don’t
Just don’t

Can you see me
Can you hear me
I’ll send my wishes
On the wings of golden doves

Play me louder
Turn me up, unleash the sound
Play me louder
Kiss the skies, ignite the ground
Play me louder
Or don’t
Play me at all
Play me at all
Just don’t
Just don’t

I won’t play small
I won’t play small
I won’t play small
Anymore
