  • For those days we felt like a mistake
    Those times when loves what you hate
    Somehow
    We keep marching on

    For those nights that I couldn't be there,
    I've made it harder to know that you know
    That somehow
    We'll keep movin' on

    There's so many wars we fought
    There's so many things we're not
    But with what we have
    I promise you that
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on

    For all of the plans we've made
    There isn't a flag I'd wave
    Don't care where we've been
    I'd sink us to swim
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on

    For those doubts that swirl all around us
    For those lives that tear at the seams
    We know
    We're not what we've seen

    Oh for this dance we move with each other
    There ain't no other step than one foot
    Right in front of the other

    There's so many wars we fought
    There's so many things we're not
    But with what we have
    I promise you that
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on

    For all of the plans we made
    There isn't a flag I'd wave
    Don't care where we've been
    I'd sink us to swim
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on

    Right, right, right, right, left
    Right, right, right, right, left
    Right, right, right, marchin' on

    We'll have the days we break
    And we'll have the scars to prove it
    We'll have the bombs that we saved
    But we'll have the heart
    Not to lose it

    For all of the times we've stopped
    For all of the things I'm not

    We put one foot in front of the other
    We move like we ain't got no other
    We go where we go we're marchin' on
    Marchin' on

    There's so many wars we fought
    There's so many things we're not
    But with what we have
    I promise you that
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on
    We're marchin' on (marching oh)
    Right, right, right, right, left
    Right, right, right, right, left
    Right, right, right, right
    Marchin' on (we're marchin' on)
    We're marchin' on
    Right, right, right, right, left
    Right, right, right, right, left (marchin' on)
    Right, right, right, right
    Marchin' on (oh-oh, oh-oh) Writer/s: James David Washington, Ryan Tedder, Tim Mosley
