I Was Here

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 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
