Well if i remember my high-school physics, it's because as the rocket is going up and it is going so fast that the atmosphere pressure is at it's peak. So when it rolls it turns the pressure on the bottom making it easier for the rocket to go up. Also it turns because it is going down toward earth but also going forward which keeps it from falling back into the atmosphere.
