  • For those days we felt like a mistake
    Those times when love's what you hate
    Somehow, we keep marchin' on
    For those nights when I couldn't be there
    I've made it harder to know that you know
    That somehow, we'll keep moving on

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

    So many hills we had to climb
    Almost without our strength
    But we kept slowly marching on
    Time heals the wounds we couldn't close
    Blood sweat and tears dried up
    We're okay, we kept marching on

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

    Get your legs and walk 'cause we're not too far
    A little more to go, but we marching on
    We marching on, we marching on
    We marching on, we marching
    If we lose the sun, we bring the night back
    If we gonna win, we gotta fight back
    We marching on, we marching on
    We marching on, we marching

    The bridge is all done and we're almost home
    The end is close

    There's so many wars we've fought
    There's so many things we're not
    But with what we have, I promise you that
    We're marching on, we're marching on, we're marching on
    There's so many wars we've fought
    There's so many things we're not
    But with what we have, I promise you that
    We're marching on, we're marching on, we're marching on Writer/s: James David Washington, Ryan Tedder, Tim Mosley
