Some can't understand me
Some still tryna figure me out
'Cause when I talk the people listen, ay-ay
Some affi cool down
Some be catching heat almost everyday
But that's not my destination
I'm not gonna waste my time today
When I've got something to say
I've been through the whirlwinds in the rain
Still I stand here today
Much more wiser
Far more stronger
You knock me down and I get back up on my feet
Forward till my mission's complete
Marching orders, ooh
Marching orders, oo-Lord-Lord, yeah
I'm starting to believe that maybe I'm on
A whole another level than everyone
I be on my grind everyday of the month
If I keep it up, I'ma destroy ya
'Cause you'd be surprised how many ask for it
But don't want to put in work to make it
Just take your time and keep it passionate
And no one can tell you that you've faked it
I'm not gonna waste my time today
When I've got something to say
I've been through the whirlwinds in the rain
Still I stand here today
Much more wiser
Far more stronger
You knock me down and I get back up on my feet
Forward till my mission's complete
Marching orders, oy
Marching orders, hey, Lord, Lord (hot head)
Suh right yah now mi stronger

Stepping up inna di place

Praises to the most high greater the creator 'cause

My mistakes should put fire pon me but
It's a blessing just to be here
And I believe that I can put some
Love back into the world
I know that it ain't gon' be easy
But the way that things are going
What do we got to lose?
Tell me, what do I got to lose? Yeah
I'm not gonna waste my time today
When I've got something to say
I've been through the whirlwinds in the rain
Still I stand here today
Much more wiser

Forward till my mission's complete
Marching orders, oo, Lord
