Mark Owen - I Am What I Am Lyrics

Mark Owen Lyrics

"I Am What I Am"

Looking at me through the eye of a needle
Is a scary thing to do
I feel a mole hill lies in front of me to climb
Is your primary purpose in life
To scrutinize every move I make
'Cause if it is I think your wasting precious time

Well I know that I have got a job to do
And I know, that my job is pleasing you, but

I am what I am
The way God made me
I am what I am
Don't try to change me

Well I know I have my weaknesses
As you point them out to me
But I'll confront the spots of doubt as they arise
Never born to be a leader
But I'll take my role with pride
'Cause a soldier with his honours lies inside

Well I know that I have got a job to do
As you say, that my job revolves around you

I am what I am
The way God made me
I am what I am
Don't try to change me

Well I know that I have got a job to do
But my life, wasn't made for you

I am what I am
The way God made me
I am what I am
Don't try to change me

I am what I am
The way God made me
