It is what it is Lyrics by Tommy Castro

0

I been obnoxious
I been unconscious
I been all kinds of things that are hard to spell
I've been unruly
Speakin' truly
I've been so cool, I couldn't hardly even stand myself
I've been a monster
Without a sponsor
I've been Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde
I've been a gonner
I've been a loner
And when my mixture was right
I'm a nice bunch of guys
I am what I am
'Cause I ain't what I used to be
'Cause it is what it is
But it ain't what it used to be
I've been a mover
I've was a shaker
You had a girlfriend
I tried to snake her
I been mysterious
I been delirious
I been so weird it woulda killed a normal man
I wanted money
I wanted power
I want a monument kinda like the Eifel Tower
I been lost at sea
I been lost in space
And when I fall in love I fall all over the place
I am what I am
'Cause I ain't what I used to be
'Cause it is what it is
But it ain't what it used to be
Oh, you can go on forever and make the same mistakes
Or you can stand up on your hind legs and change your fate
Go on and do, until you finally see
What it is that it was that you don't wanna be
I was an outlaw
I was an inlaw
I was a scapegoat, that was the last straw
I hit the highway
Singin', "My way."
But it wound up soundin' like, "You'll Never Walk Alone."
I got a story
Reflected glory
Is the way that I been seein' for most of my life
I heard the laughter
Up in the rafter
But I never, ever thought that the joke was on me
I am what I am
'Cause I ain't what I used to be
'Cause it is what it is
But it ain't what it used to be
Yeah, I am what I am
'Cause I ain't what I used to be
'Cause it is what it is
But it ain't what it used to be
