Let's Leave "Fingerpints"

Hey KatyCats,
    To continue with my need to do inspirational songs, I decided to do Katy Perry's song "Fingerprints" from the "One of the Boys" album. It is another great Katy song that not too many people know. It was never big, but I think it should have been. It has great lyrics that are about leaving your mark on life.
    You might want to click here to look at the lyrics for this next part. I think that these lyrics are for everyone who has ever doubted themselves or felt that others doubted them. These words are all about EXACTLY what they say. It's about leaving your mark on life and leaving a legacy. Every one of us is special and can do something special in this world. We can each leave a legacy to live on when we die. We can truly "go down in history" if we really put our minds to it and just DO IT. Everyone has the potential to do whatever they truly desire in this life and that is the message that Katy is communicating in this song. We each have our own lives to live and nobody can tell us how to live it, truly. That's something Katy knows well, actually. When she was signed to Columbia Records, they were telling her how her music was going to be. They told her what her image was going to be. And the truth is, if she had listened, she would not be leaving her mark right now. She wouldn't be the Katy that we know and love today. So this song is about listening to yourself and doing what your heart tells you to do.
    I think this song is one of Katy's greatests, but then, I think all of her songs are great. But I think that this song in particular really has a wonderful message for the potential for greatness in all of us. We can each be remembered for the great things we will do in this life if we simply put our minds to it. So, my dear friends and KatyCats, I simply want to say, let's leave our "Fingerprints" on life. Let's each leave a legacy for the future to look at and say, "Wow, I want to be like that person." because we can.

Leave your legacy, KatyCats!
