I Am What I Am lyrics

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'd 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 till 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 and see things from a different angle
Your life is a sham till you can say
Hey world, 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 my 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 say
Hey world, I am what I am
