It isn't always easy to rise up. Some days are harder than others, but in difficult times, remember to rise up anyway. Every morning we must rise up for not just for ourselves, but for those other people who's destiny deponds on us as well. Andra Day, you rise up for me. This song is beautiful in so many ways that only your heart here can sing. Beautifully done and now, inspiration to my own moment of poetry this morning. Today, in just one moment I had a poem come through. It was a riddle of sorts, but vivid and intense. I followed my bliss and wrote the words as they rang loudly in my ear. It's my passion to find such inspired and shared love in art, music, with visual storytelling.

LYRICS:

Rise Up
(Andra Day and Jennifer Decilveo)

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 thousands times again
For you (4X)

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
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
For you (4X)

All we need, all we need is hope
And for that we have each other
And for that we have each other
We will rise
We will rise
We’ll rise, ohh ohhh
We’ll rise

I’ll rise up
Rise like the day
I’ll rise up
In spite of the ache
I will rise a thousands times again
And we’ll rise up
Rise like the waves
We’ll rise up
In spite of the ache
We’ll rise up
And we'll do it a thousands times again
For you ohhhh ohhh ohh ohhh ohh (3X) Hope For The Lost Soul A Poem Written by Marla Guloien February 22, 2016
