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 d***, 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 say it's noise, I think it's pretty
And so what if I love each feather and each spangle
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
