I Am What I Am

LETRA

I Am What I Am

I am what I am
I am my own special creation.
So come take a look,
Give me the hook or the ovation.

It's my world that I want to
take a little pride in,
My world, and it's not a place
I have to hide in.

Life's not worth a damn,
'Til you can say,
"Hey world, I am what I am."

I am what I am,
I don't want praise,
I don't want pity.
I bang my own drum,
Some think it's noise,
I think it's pretty.

And so what, if I love
each feather and each spangle,
Why not try to see things
from a diff'rent angle?

Your life is a sham
'til you can shout out loud
I am what I am!

I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses.
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the ace,
sometimes the deuces.

There's one life,
and there's no return
and no deposit;
One life, so it's time
to open up your closet.

Life's not worth a damn
'til you can say,
"Hey world, I am what I am!"

Thank you so much!
