I Am What I Am Lyrics

I know you've read
So many books
You keep a best of all the things you think you should
You've got your own homegrown philosophy
It works for you but please don't try to make it work for me

You have nothing to prove
But you're trying much too hard
Stop trying to change me
I am what I am
No I don't need you to save me
I am what I am
I don't need you to show me
Because I stand where I stand
I just need you to know me
Just know who I am
Just know who I am
Just know who I am

I know you feel you
You need to prove you are good simply everything you try to
And people hang on your every word
But you deliver,
With conviction,
Though they may just be absurd
Leave your armour behind
Free your vulnerable mind

Stop trying to change me
I am what I am
No I don't need you to save me
I am what I am
I don't want you to show me
Because I stand where I stand
I just need you to know me
Just know who I am

Just know who I am
Just know who I am
