🎶 Hold Freedom Up
A bold retro-rock anthem for rebels of the road.

🌄 Why This Song Exists
Because truth isn’t quiet — it’s loud, raw, and rolling.
“Hold Freedom Up” was written for those who’ve been told to sit down, play nice, and quit dreaming. This song is a sonic act of rebellion for those who said “no thanks” to conformity and chose the long road over the fast lane.
✅ Ditch the rules that never served you
✅ Call out every “should’ve” and “too late”
✅ Celebrate the wild grace of choosing your own way
🎙 What Inspired This Song
Part road gospel, part garage rock, this track started in a journal scribble at a rest stop in Tennessee. It’s the sound of the sunrise when you’ve got nothing left to lose and everything ahead to gain.
The music echoes vintage grit — distorted guitars, Hammond organ swells, driving bass, and a soul-shouting chorus.
Think: Midnight Rider meets liberation march with a Tabula Rasa twist.
✍ Lyrics Highlight
You don’t need a crown or a stage or a cup
Just fire in your chest — hold freedom up
They’ll try to break you, call your bluff
But your soul don’t bluff — hold freedom up
🚐 Part of the Bigger Story
As the Tabula Rasa RV Tour barrels down backroads, “Hold Freedom Up” becomes the unofficial rally cry.
It plays loud when the tank is full, the past is fading, and the only direction is forward. This song isn’t just part of the journey — it is the journey.
