Linda Eder - I Am What I Am Lyrics
Words & Music: Jerry HermanI am what I amI am my own special creationSo come take a lookGive me the hook or the ovationIt's my world that I want to have a little pride inMy world, and it's not a place I have to hide inLife's not worth a damn 'til you can say"Hey world, I am what I am!"I am what I amI don't want praiseI don't want pityI bang my own drum Some think it's noise I think it's prettyAnd 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 loud: "I am what I am!"I am what I amAnd what I am needs no excusesI deal my own decksometimes the ace, sometimes the deucesThere's one life and it's no return and no depositOne life, so it's time to open up your closet!
