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 dam 'Til you can say 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 sparkle and each bangle Why not try to see things from a different angle Your life is a sham 'Til 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 dam 'Til 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 dam 'Til you can shout out, I am what I am
