Hello everyone in the hive Open mic. For this week's theme 'Be reborn', I'm here with an entry. I'll be doing a cover for the song "I'm still here" by Sia Furler.
This is a song with deep meanings, and it illustrates the concept of being reborn as the theme implies. It is the song that narrates the past lives of a person, and his ability to move on from it despite how hard it may seem.
Most times, one's past can be a cause for pain and drawbacks, but when we learn to let go, and fight to better ourselves, we can then experience a rebirth of a fresh start.

song lyrics:
"I'm Still Here"

I'm fighting a battle
I'm fighting my shadow
Herd fears like they're cattle
I'm fighting a battle, yeah
I'm fighting my ego
Lost youth where did we go wrong
I'm fighting for me though
I'm lighting the long way home

Oh the past it haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past tormented me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past it haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past tormented me
But the battle was lost
'Cause I'm still here

I'm winning the war now
I'm winning it all now
Watch tears while they fall down
I'm winning the war now
I win against ego
Cast light on the shadow's long
I'm winning from ego
I'm lighting the long way home

Oh the past it haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past tormented me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past it haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past tormented me
But the battle was lost
'Cause I'm still here

It's haunted me
Oh the past it haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past tormented me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past it haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past tormented me
But the battle was lost
'Cause I'm still here

I'm fighting my ego
Lost youth where did we go wrong
I'm winning from ego
I'm lighting the long way home

Oh the past it haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past tormented me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past it haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past tormented me
But the battle was lost
'Cause I'm still here

It's haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past it's haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past it's haunted me
Oh the past it wanted me dead
Oh the past tormented me
But the battle was lost
'Cause I'm still here
