Hello Hive family! For Week 276 of Hive Open Mic, with the beautiful theme “Healing”, I’ll be singing “Rise Up” by Andra Day, a song that has always spoken deeply to my heart.
I chose this song because it reflects the strength to keep going even when everything feels heavy. Healing is not always instant; sometimes, it’s in the quiet strength of rising up each day with hope.
I hope this cover brings comfort and light to anyone going through a difficult season. Let it remind you that you're not alone, and that healing, though gradual, is possible.
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 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 In spite 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 quiet 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 its 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
Much love, @Oyinwrites💛🎶
