You will notice me
I'll believe in 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 Gough
Cure the common cold
I don't know but I'm ready to start, 'cause I know in my heart
I wanna do somethin' that matters,
say somethin' different,
somethin' that sets the whole world on it's ear
I wanna do somethin better, with the time I've been given
I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life,
and leave nothin' 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 stream'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 somethin' that matters, say somethin' different
somethin' that sets the whole world on it's ear
I wanna do somethin' better, with the time I've been given
I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
and leave nothin' less than somethin' that says I was here
And I know that I,
I will do more than just pass through this life
I'll leave nothin' less than somethin' that says I was here,
I was here
