"Raise Your Hand" é uma canção cover de Janis Joplin, originalmente escrita por Eddie Floyd, Steve Cropper e Alvertis Isbell, presente no álbum Cheap Thrills (1968) de Big Brother and the Holding Company.​A letra incentiva o ouvinte a abandonar a passividade, parar de chorar ou se lamentar e "levantar a mão" para pedir o que precisa, simbolizando abertura emocional e iniciativa para receber amor ou satisfação.No contexto de Joplin, a música ganha uma energia blues-rock explosiva, frequentemente interpretada ao vivo como um grito de empoderamento e conexão com o público.
