Lyrics
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.
Intimal, obsolete
I overslept, arrived too late
If nothing is as nothing does
I guess my time has come
Weather underground is overcast and chilly
Then the truth is never pretty
When you wield it like a gun
Quick, catch me, lost control
My pants are down, I've been exposed
It's not the way it looks, I swear
There's nothing I wouldn't dare
Give a little, take a lot
A kingdom built upon the rot
If power comes so easily
Then nothing but the best for me
Hey, you, hold on, stop right there
I'm only human, let's be fair
I'll make no apologies
Or full confession on my knees
No, I won't go quietly, admit I am your enemy
I'm still the one you hate to love
Everything I ever was
I heard it all, did it my way
Did it my way
You can't change me
I am what I am
I am what I am
No, you can't change me
I heard it all
Made the call
Took the fall
You can't change me
