[00:09.56]I am what I am
[00:15.42]I am my own special creation
[00:24.16]So come take a look
[00:29.59]Give me the hook or the ovation
[00:37.26]It’s my world
[00:41.01]That I want to have a little pride in
[00:46.56]My world
[00:48.50]And it’s not a place I have to hide in
[00:54.05]Life’s not worth a damn
[00:58.85]Till you can say
[01:02.04]I am what I am
[01:09.89]I am what I am
[01:12.45]I don’t want praise I don’t want pity
[01:17.38]I bang my own drum
[01:20.19]Some think it’s noise I think it’s pretty
[01:25.11]And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle
[01:29.42]Why not try to see things from a different angle
[01:33.54]Your life is a shame
[01:36.35]Till you can shout out
[01:38.53]I am what I am
[01:43.84]I am what I am
[01:47.27]And what I am needs no excuses
[01:53.82]I deal my own deck
[01:57.44]Sometimes the aces sometimes the deuces
[02:03.74]It’s one life and there’s no return and no deposit
[02:09.92]One life so it’s time to open up your closet
[02:17.66]Life’s not worth a damn till you can shout out
[02:26.78]I am what I am ...
