I Am What I Am

I am what I am

I can’t help myself

And if you don’t like it

Get with somebody else

I’ll never change my ways

It’s not a phase

This is how it is and this is how it’s gonna stay

Because

I am what I am I know what I’m not

I’m not the type of guy

That doesn’t know how good he’s got it

And I won’t back down

Won’t come around

Saying that I changed cause

That’s not how it’s going down

And I know (I know I know)

Wherever I go (I go I go)

I know where I stand

I am what I am

Hey! Hey!

I am what I am

Hey! Hey!

I am what I am

What can I say?

I’m gonna be this way

Right up until my dying day

Because that’s how it goes head to my toes

And if it doesn’t show well I just had to let you know

Because

I am what I am

And nobody else

And if you’ve got a problem

Better take it somewhere else

Because I can’t turn back

I’m right on track

And if you think you know

Well then you better check your facts

Because

I know (I know I know)

Wherever I go (I go I go)

I know where I stand

I am what I am

Hey! Hey!

I am what I am

Hey! Hey!

Oh can’t you see

I’m just being me

I can’t be you

And I don’t want to be

Don’t try to get

Inside my head

Cause what you see is what you get

I am what I am

I can’t help myself

And if you don’t like it

Get with somebody else

I’ll never change my ways

It’s not a phase

This is how it is right up until my dying day

And I know (I know I know)

Wherever I go (I go I go)

I know where I stand

I am what I am

Hey! Hey!

I am what I am

Hey! Hey!

I am what I am

Hey! Hey!

I am what I am

Hey! Hey!
