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 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 aces 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 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 aces 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 out I am what I am  I am, I am, good I am, I am,strong I am, I am somebody I am I do belong I am, I am, good I am, I am,strong I am, I am somebody I am I do belong I am, I am, useful I am, I am true I am, I am worthy I am as good as you I am, I am, useful I am, I am true I am, I am worthy I am as good as you
