I Am What 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.
Some choose to remember
Some choose to forget
Some fall to pieces
When they lose their heads
I choose to get lucky
Don't choose to regret
I'll take my chances
Only I know best
When it all gets down to me
When it all gets down to me
('Cause) I am, what I am
And no one's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I am, what I am
And no one's gonna break me down again
I hate to be lonely
I can't pretend
Don't need no phonies
Tryin' to be my friends
Don't care about danger
Lean take the fall
Everyone's a stranger
Till just one stands tall
And it all comes down on me
When it all comes down tome
('Cause) I am, what I am
And nobody's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I am, what I am
Nothin's gonna break me down again
I can hear the devil callin', callin'
I can hear him callin' me
But I don't do nothin'
I don't believe
When it all comes down to me
When it all gets down to me
('Cause) I am, what I am
And nobody's gonna tell me where or when
'Cause I am, what I am
Nothin's gonna break me down again
Nothin's gonna break me down - again
