Lyrics

0:17You will notice me
0:22I'll be leaving my mark like initials carved
0:27In an old oak tree you wait and see
0:32Maybe I'll write like Twain wrote
0:36Maybe I'll paint like Van Gogh
0:41Cure the common cold I don't know
0:44But I'm ready to start cause I know in my heart
0:49I wanna do something that matters say something different
0:55Something that sets the whole world on its ear
0:59I wanna do something better with the time I've been given
1:04I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
1:11Leave nothing less than something that says I was here
1:25I will prove you wrong
1:29If you think I'm all talk you're in for a shock
1:34'Cause this dream's too strong and before too long
1:40Maybe I'll compose symphonies
1:44Maybe I'll fight for world peace
1:49'Cause I know it's my destiny
1:52To leave more than a trace of myself in this place
1:57I wanna do something that matters say something different
2:03Something that sets the whole world on its ear
2:07I wanna do something better with the time I've been given
2:12I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
2:18And leave nothing less than something that says I was here
2:30And I know that I I will do more than just pass through this life
2:36I'll leave nothing less than something that says I was here
2:48I was here
2:56I was here
3:02I was here
3:03I wanna do something that matters
3:07Something that says I was here
3:12I wanna do something that matters
3:16Something that says I was here
3:19I was here
You will notice me
I'll be leaving my mark like initials carved
In an old oak tree  you wait and see
Maybe I'll write like Twain wrote
Maybe I'll paint like Van Gogh
Cure the common cold  I don't know
But I'm ready to start cause I know in my heart
I wanna do something that matters  say something different
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
I wanna do something better with the time I've been given
I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
Leave nothing less than something that says I was here
I will prove you wrong
If you think I'm all talk  you're in for a shock
'Cause this dream's too strong and before too long
Maybe I'll compose symphonies
Maybe I'll fight for world peace
'Cause I know it's my destiny
To leave more than a trace of myself in this place
I wanna do something that matters  say something different
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
I wanna do something better with the time I've been given
I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
And leave nothing less than something that says I was here
And I know that I  I will do more than just pass through this life
I'll leave nothing less than something that says I was here
I was here
I was here
I was here
I wanna do something that matters
Something that says I was here
I wanna do something that matters
Something that says I was here
I was here
