Beyonc declared that its time to sing a new song as she endorsed Democrat Kamala Harris for president at a Friday campaign rally in Texas.

The old notes of downfall, discord, despair no longer resonate. Our generations of loved ones before us are whispering a prophecy, a quest, a calling, an anthem, said the singer at the event in Houston, her hometown.

Its time for America to sing a new song. Our voices sing a chorus of unity. They sing a song of dignity and opportunity. Are yall ready to add your voice to the new American song? Because I am. So lets do this.

Queen Bey, who gave Harris permission to use her song Freedom on the campaign trail earlier this year, told the rally crowd that she wasnt at the event as a celebrity or a politician.

Im here as a mother. A mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in, said the singer, who shares three children with her husband, rapper Jay-Z .

A world where we have the freedom to control our bodies. A world where were not divided. Our past, our present, our future merge to meet us here.

Beyonc previously showed her support for Barack Obama s 2012 presidential campaign and Hillary Clintons 2016 White House bid . She also backed Joe Biden on the eve of the 2020 presidential election .

We need you. Your voice has power and magnitude, Beyonc said at Fridays event, which included an appearance by fellow singer Kelly Rowland , who rose to fame alongside Beyonc in the group Destinys Child.

Your vote is one of the most valuable tools, and we need you. Your freedom is your God-given right, your human right.

She added that Texas, a state where polls show a tight Senate race between Rep. Colin Allred (D) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R), plays a pivotal role to change the course of our future.

We all have a role to play to make this a reality. were all part of something much bigger, she said. We must vote, and we need you.
