Lyrics

The Way I Am

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I've been messed up, tossed around

I've been flying high just to get knocked down

Always kept my feet on solid ground

I'm a sinner, I'm a saint

I've been creeping down the fast lane

I'll rush this life on my own pace

I'll race you down the highway

So beat me if you can

Life's the game that I play

That's the way I am

That's the way life goes

This is who I wanna be

And that's the way it's gonna be

That's the way I am

Baby this I know

In all of this insanity

I'm everything I wanna be

That's the way I am

I'm known to be wrong, when I'm right

I'm colorful in black and white

I'm a beam of sunshine in the night

I'm a slob, I'm a sleaze

I can make fire freeze

I come and go just as I please

So baby this is my way

To make you understand

Life's the game that I play

That's the way I am

That's the way life goes

This is who I wanna be

And that's the way it's gonna be

That's the way I am

Baby this I know

In all of this insanity

I'm everything I wanna be

That's the way I am

That's the way I am

I've been messed up, tossed around

I've been flying high just to get knocked down

Always kept my feet on solid ground

I'm a sinner, I'm a saint

I've been creeping down the fast lane

I'll rush this life on my own pace

That's the way I am

That's the way life goes

This is who I wanna be

And that's the way it's gonna be

That's the way I am

Baby this I know

In all of this insanity

I'm everything I wanna be

That's the way I am

Yeah

That's the way I am

That's the way I am

Yeah

That's the way I am

(The Way I Am)

Alright

I've been messed up, tossed around

I've been knocked down

But that is the way life is you know

That's the way I am
