Tiësto Lyrics
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
Make it, make it, make it loud
Move the frown when the beat goes down
Make it, make it, make it loud
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
Make it, make it, make it loud
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
Make it, make it, make it loud
Move the frown when the beat goes down
Make it, make it, make it loud
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
Make it, make it, make it loud
Move the crowd when the beat goes down
I rock the stage, they all know my sound
