## Lyrics
[verse]
The general said the music's gotta stop
But the people down below won't drop
They climbed up on the roof to catch the sound
Dancing where the silence tried to ground

[chorus]
Shake the palace, rattle the walls
Every rule they set is bound to fall
Turn the drums up, let the trumpets blast
Freedom's rhythm never fades too fast

[verse]
Jets go flying over desert sand
Trying to enforce a strict command
But the kids just turn the station higher
Setting every rooftop still on fire

[chorus]
Shake the palace, rattle the walls
Every rule they set is bound to fall
Turn the drums up, let the trumpets blast
Freedom's rhythm never fades too fast

[bridge]
You can ban the beat, you can ban the song
But the feet keep moving right along
No decree can silence what we feel
Music always finds a way that's real

[chorus]
Shake the palace, rattle the walls
Every rule they set is bound to fall
Turn the drums up, let the trumpets blast
Freedom's rhythm never fades too fast
