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 have 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 I am what I
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 sparkle and each bangle
-5
Why not try and see things from a different angle
Your life is a shame till you can shout out 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

It'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 till you can shout "hey world"
I am what I
