Moving Forward
Marley Ziggy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The human experiment comes with pain
And through it all you got to live again
From the day that I was born
Yesterday was already gone
It's not easy so I can't pretend
Those who are angels were once my friends
I don't wanna stay with the evil I know
I don't wanna keep my enemies close

I'm moving forward,
I'm moving forward
The pain make me stronger
Can't stop me no longer

I'm moving forward,
I'm moving forward
The hurt make me stronger
Can't stop me no longer

Sometimes it seems impossible
The obstacles that we must climb
Adversity is my ally
Even though she makes me cry

Moving forward,
I'm moving forward
The pain makes me stronger
Can't stop me no longer
I'm moving forward,
I'm moving forward
The pain make me stronger
Can't stop me no longer

I'm moving forward,
I'm moving forward
The hurt make me stronger
Can't stop me no longer

The hurt makes me stronger
Can't stop me no longer

I'm moving forward,
I'm moving forward
The pain makes me stronger
Can't stop me no longer
The hurt makes me stronger
Can't stop me no longer

I'm moving forward,
I'm moving forward
The pain makes me stronger
Can't stop me no longer




The hurt makes me stronger
Can't stop me no longer

very interesting. it is at these times that i mourn being one of the watchers and not a worker. I became a follower of Ziggy's because my only real knowledge of him is as his Father's Son. I named my Daughter, Marley and she named her 13 year old Siamese cat, Ziggy. I saw young Ziggy on stage in his Father's videos from so long ago. i need to "meet" Ziggy NOW; at the very least, to honor Father's Memory. Ziggy, please forgive my late entrance.
