I Am/I Am Lyrics by Auld

Mainstream Music

2019

Shrink your opinion to a sound bite
It's the only way we’ll understand
I am the middle class, white, straight man
I am the trendsetter I am, I am

I can take those things you do and make them credible

Just take me from my head
And leave me in my Mother's heart
It's the only place that is safe son
So just leave it, leave it alone

I am the middle class, white, straight man
I am the gatekeeper I am, I am
I will tell you what you can’t like
And I will tell you what you can, what you can

I can take those things you do and make them accessible

Just take me from my head
And leave me in my Mother's heart
It's the only place that is safe son
So just leave it, leave it alone

And I thought I would be a better person than this by now
And I thought I would be a better version of myself
And I thought I would be a better person than this by now
And I thought I would be a better version of myself

And I thought I would be a better person than this by now
And I thought I would be a better version of myself
And I thought I would be a better person than this by now
And I thought I would be a better version of myself
