I Was Here

You won't 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 Gough 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 And 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 drink'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 it's ear I wanna do something better With the time I've been given And I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life 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 (Oh, something that matters) (Something that says I was here) Wanna do something that matters Something that says I was here I was here
