CSS Help with centering wrapped text

I have tried many many ways to center this text without it wrapping in the middle of the page without success.
Actually, it is centered but in a long vertical display, where the text lines wrap. Any suggestions to unwrap text but keep it centered are welcomed:


CSS: 
#marquee {
    //position: relative;
    display:inline-block;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    //justify-content: center;
    color: #000000;
    font: 5vw arial;
    width: 100%;
    background-color: transparent;
    }
