I Will Rise Up Now

Happy new year everyone!

This mix is inspired by a beautiful song called Love & Hate by Michael Kiwanuka, and the mix is dedicated to my brother Ahmad who recommended it when I asked him for his favorite song to make a mix around. I loved the empowering message of the song that I decided to make an uplifting mix themed around it.

Let's make 2021 count!

"Always on the outside, through a window looking in
Never the right time, so the chance goes by again

The lines begin to show, when we feel broken
To move on we have to drop the pieces we're holding

And no one is perfect
You don't need to be strong, every single day

Chase the wind again, knowing just what they'll say
Don't care anymore, can't stay still anyway

No one really knows along the way
that the best things in life won't be, perfect anyway"

From track #7 Seraphine, the Starry-Eyed Songstress
