Voted most likely

To end up on the back of a milk box drink

Looks like I'm letting 'em down

'Cause $7.75

Isn't worth an hour of my hard working time

When you can't afford half the shit they advertise

Oh I'm worth more than an X

More than a toe-tagged generation full of regrets

Oh I won't settle no oh

Oh I can't settle

I wanna break the mold

I wanna break the stereotype

Fist in the air

I'm not going down without a fight

It's my life

And I'm not sitting on the sidelines watching it

Pass me by

I'm leaving you my legacy

I gotta make my mark

I gotta run it hard

I want you to remember me

I'm leaving my fingerprints

I'm leaving my fingerprints

I'm leaving my fingerprints on you

Representing you and me

Don't you wanna go down in history

Rather then end up

Begging on the streets

Trading under table favors

For a place to sleep

'Cause I'm worth more than this

So stop writing prescriptions for more Ritalin

I can focus my attention

I wanna break the mold

I wanna break the stereotype

Fist in the air

I'm not going down without a fight

It's my life

And I'm not sitting on the sidelines watching it

Pass me by

I'm leaving you my legacy

I gotta make my mark

I gotta run it hard

I want you to remember me

I'm leaving my fingerprints

I'm leaving my fingerprints

Don't give up

But don't give in

Build your house on the rock

Oh not in the sand, in the sand in the sand, in the sand

It's my life

And I'm not sitting on the sidelines watching it

Pass me by

I'm leaving you my legacy

I gotta make my mark

I gotta run it hard

I want you to remember me

It's my life

And I'm not sitting on the sidelines watching it

Pass me by

I'm leaving you my legacy

I gotta make my mark

I gotta run it hard

I want you to remember me

'Cause I'm leaving my fingerprints

I'm leaving my fingerprints

I'm leaving my fingerprints in the END
