Award-winning Barbadian Singer and Songwriter, Rihanna, releases a new single which is tagged ‘Lift Me Up’.
After six long years, Rihanna’s newest single “Lift Me Up” is the singer’s first solo song released since her last album “Anti” in 2016. The song was released as part of the soundtrack for the upcoming film “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” and was made in remembrance of the late Chadwick Boseman.
Lift Me Up was co-written by Nigerian singer-songwriter Tems, Oscar-winning composer Ludwig Göransson, and “Black Panther” director Ryan Coogler.

Lift Me Up plays an important role in establishing the tone of the upcoming “Black Panther” film and remembering the legacy of Chadwick Boseman. This single is also just the beginning of Rihanna’s return, as she is slated to headline the Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show in February of 2023.
It was so refreshing to hear her voice again after 6 years of hiatus.
Enjoy the lyrics and the video below;
Lift me up
Hold me down
Keep me close
Safe and sound
Burning in a hopeless dream
Hold me when you go to sleep
Keep me in the warmth of your love
When you depart, keep me safe
Safe and sound
