Audio files won't play when I exit the app

I have audio in my files app and when I play them and leave the app the audio doesn’t continue to play. How do I fix this issue?

Do you have a laptop or desktop computer with iTunes? The iphone and ipod are designed to play audio in the Music app that has been stored in and sync’d from the computer. That will play persistently. Opening them in Files app will not be persistent.
