Can you show us an example of this "mark"?
Chances are it is not on the lens, but the sensor, like in my image here:
See the blotch by the wing?

That looks like dust on the image sensor.

Hello, grayden_O!
That is dust and lint on your sensor. Since your Rebel T7 does not have a built in sensor cleaning function, you have three choices. 1) Have a local camera shop clean it. 2) Send it to Canon for a cleaning. 3) Buy a cleaning kit and do it yourself.
You could start by just buying a Giottos Rocket blower [Screenshot included below to facilitate conversation], which you should have anyway, but it will help remove any loose dust and lint on your sensor, lens, and camera. But you may need a sensor brush or even a sensor swab if the smaller ones, as shown in your image, are stubborn. If you are at all squeamish about fooling around in the mirror box, options 1 and 2 are the way to go.
