you will notice me i ll be leaving my mark like initials carved in an old oak tree just 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 was 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 was given i wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life leave nothing less than something that says i was here i wanna do something that matters say something different something that sets the whole world on its ear 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 was given i know that i will do more than just pass through this life and leave nothing less than something that says i was here i was here i was here
