Mark Owen - 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 you're 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 (I am what I am)
The way god made me
I am what I am (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 honors lies inside

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

But I am what I am (I am what I am)
The way god made me
I am what I am (I am what I am)
Don't try to change me

I am what I am (I am what I am)
The way god made me
I am what I am (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 (I am what I am)
The way god made me
I am what I am (I am what I am)
Don't try to change me

I am what I am (I am what I am)
The way god made me
I am what I am (I am what I am)
Don't try to change me

I am what I am (I am what I am)
The way god made me
I am what I am (I am what I am)
Don't try to change me

I am what I am (I am what I am)
The way god made me
I am what I am (I am what I am)
Don't try to change me
I am what I am (I am what I am)
