I Am What I Am Lyrics

I am the tide that pulls the moon
I am the planet that lights the sun
I am the way that leads the stars
I am the road that drives the cars
I am the rocket ship that blasts the bit that takes you to the stars

I am what I am
Got it in my hand
Hear what I say
See what I am
You understand?

I am the song that writes the mind
I am the man who don't wait for time
I am the heart that feeds your kiss
I am the faith that gets your soul
I am the pound of flesh that signifies the sum of all you're told

I am what I am
Got it in my hand
Hear what I say
See what I am
You understand?

I am the heart that calls you home
I am the grave that marks your stone
I'm misunderstood do you understand?
Like the sea holds back the land
I'm the mishap and coincidence that came out as you planned

I am what I am
Got it in my hand
Hear what I say
See what I am
You understand?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
