So many sounds that I've experienced
Even when I'm at my weariest
Those artists I can't thank enough
For the times I had to crank it up
When you feel the joy, and feel the pain
Sometimes it's all to keep me sane
I'm not perfect, and I'm owning it
And I know I'm not alone in this
When the whole world's being rude
And it left me in a sour mood
But I know how I can come around
Put some De La in to calm me down
I bob my head and hope attacks
And that's how I get my focus back
Soon the negativity is gone
Turn the power on
Play the music that you want
All your favorite songs
Just turn the power on
When I've needed to, the best escape
Used to pop in a cassette tape
And it did the job admirably
Until I ran out of batteries
We've got it easy now, truth be known
Music history right in our phones
If you can name the song, and look it up
You can listen to it soon enough
Not the way it was before
I used to have to buy it at a record store
Pick one, use good analysis
Now it's option paralysis
If I'm loving what they play now
Throw some money at their PayPal
Show some love when the feeling's strong
Turn the power on
Play the music that you want
All your favorite songs
Just turn the power on
When things aren't looking good
And everything is wrong
Cue up the playlist
I won't feel that way for long
Turn the power on
Play the music that you want
All your favorite songs
Just turn the power on
Turn the power on
Play the music that you want
All your favorite songs
Just turn the power on
