I Am What I Am - Above & Beyond, OceanLab

I know you’ve read

So many books

You keep a breast of all the things you think you should

You’ve got your own home grown philosophy

And 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 (Stop trying to change me…)

I am what I am (I am what I am…)

No I don’t need you to save me (I don’t need you to save me…)

I am what I am (I am what I am…)

I don’t want you to show me (I don’t need you to show me…)

Because I stand where I stand (I stand where I stand…)

I just need you to know me (just need you to know me)

Just know who I am (Just know who I am…)

Just know who I am…

Just know who I am…

I know you feel

You need to prove

That you are good at simply

Everything you try to do And people have on your every word

That you deliver

With conviction

Though they may just be absurd

Leave your armor behind

Free your vulnerable mind

Stop trying to change me (Stop trying to change me…)

I am what I am (I am what I am…)

No I don’t need you to save me (I don’t need you to save me…)

I am what I am (I am what I am…)

I don’t want you to show me (I don’t need you to show me…)

Because I stand where I stand (I stand where I stand…)

I just need you to know me (just need you to know me)

Just know who I am (Just know who I am…)

Just know who I am…

Just know who I am…
