Story Behind The Song
This song started as the riff that begins the song. Unfortunately there are not the right list of emotions as this is a song about empowerment or more specifically about getting to the point where you won't take anymore and have to Move On.
Song Description
Although this is a message song with the empowerment being the theme, its also a really fun dance song. I like the raock/ska feel that helps advance the attitude in the lyric.

Lyrics
Movin' On
Intro-
This tune goes out to all those people
Who think they got all the answers.
Just when you think you got it all figured out
Life kicks you in your backside and says
Surprise!
Verse -
If you think
One way is the best
And you say
I must pass your test
Well I say
You better think once again
If you think
You'll go boxin' me in
Chorus-
So I'll be Movin' On
Know you got me wrong
I keep growing strong
And I'll be Movin' On
.
(Ad lib middle with band intros)
Verse 2
Treat me like,
An unwanted guest
Cuz' you want,
For me to be like the rest.
Well I say
You better think once again
Cause I Got
My own game, my own plan.
Chorus-
