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 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 dont want pity. I bang my own drum, Some think it's noise I think its 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 'Till 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 aces, 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 'Till you can say, "Hey world, I am what I am."
