Hi everyone! It's a pleasure to be part of this wonderful community and share my love of music with you all.

While pondering and meditating on the theme "Reborn from Fire" presented by the creative @lifenix, I would say that life is a roller coaster of highs and lows. Sometimes when something bad happens, like a natural disaster or a personal tragedy, it can feel like everything is destroyed. But in some cases, out of that destruction, something new and better can unfold. It's like how a forest can regrow after a wildfire, or how a person can find strength and wisdom after going through a tough time. This process is sometimes called 'Reborn from Fire' because it's like being reborn out of the ashes of the past.

Well, I knew there were many songs that could perfectly capture the spirit of this theme. After much consideration, I finally arrived at a song titled "Rise Up", written and composed by one of my favorite artist by name Andra Day.

Andra Day is a talented American singer and song writer known for her powerful voice and lyrics. She has established herself as a formidable force in both the music and film industries, having crafted numerous captivating and thought-provoking songs, including 'Rise Up' and 'Strange Fruit', while also earning praise for her performances on the sylver screen. She is a rising star with a voice that captivates a message and connects deeply with many.

I believe that the song "Rise Up" truly embodies the essence of being reborn from the flames of adversity. The inspiring words of 'Rise Up' have been a source of and encouragement and strength for me during challenging times. Andra Day's powerful vocals and heartfelt delivery flawlessly capture the hopeful message and determination that lie at the heart of the song.

This song speaks to the human spirit, to our capacity for endurance and our ability to overcome even the darkest of circumstances. By choosing to perform this song, I really hope to share that message of hope with others who may be struggling or in need of a reminder that they too can rise up.

Do well to relax, let the music wash over you and take you to a place of peace and relaxation. Enjoy the experience!

Lyrics
You're broken down and tired

Of living life on a merry go round

And you can't find the fighter

But I see it in you so we gonna walk it out

And move mountains

And I'll rise up

I'll rise like the day

I'll rise up

I'll rise unafraid

I'll rise up

And I'll do it a thousand times again

And I'll rise up

High like the waves

I'll rise up

Inspite of the ache

I'll rise up

And I'll do it a thousand times again

For you

For you

For you

For you

When the silence isn't quite

And it feels like it's getting hard to breathe

And I know you feel like dying

But I promise we'll take the world to its feet

And move mountains

Bring it to it's feet

And move mountains

And I'll rise up

I'll rise like the day

I'll rise up

I'll rise unafraid

I'll rise up

And I'll do it a thousand times again

For you

For you

For you

For you

All we need, all we need is hope

And for that we have each other

And for that we have each other

And we will rise

We will rise

We'll rise, oh, oh

We'll rise

I'll rise up

Rise like the day

I'll rise up

In spite of the ache

I will rise a thousand times again

And we'll rise up

High like the waves

We'll rise up

In spite of the ache

We'll rise up

And we'll do it a thousand times again

For you

For you

For you

For you

Ah, ah, ah, ah
