The Way I Am Lyrics

The Way I Am lyrics

I've been messed up, tossed around

I've been flying high, just to get knocked down

I always kept my feet, on solid ground

I'm a sinner, I'm a saint

I've been creeping down the fast lane

I'll rush this life, at my own pace



I'll race you down the highway

So beat me, if you can

Life's the game, that I play



[Chorus]

That's the way I am

That's the way life goes

This is who I wanna be

And that's the way, it's gonna be

That's the way I am 

And baby, this I know

In all of this insanity

I'm everything, I wanna be

That's the way I am - yeah

That's the way I am



I'm known to be wrong, when I'm right

I'm colourful, in black and white

I'm a beam of sunshine in the night

I'm a snob, I'm a sleaze

I can make a fire freeze

I come and go, just as I please



So baby, this is my way

To make you understand

Life's the game, that I play



[Chorus]

That's the way I am

That's the way life goes

This is who I wanna be

And that's the way, it's gonna be

That's the way I am 

And baby, this I know

In all of this insanity

I'm everything, I wanna be

That's the way I am - yeah (the way I am)

That's the way I am (the way I am)

 

I've been messed up, tossed around

I've been flying high, just to get knocked down

I always kept my feet, on solid ground

I'm a sinner, I'm a saint

I've been creeping down the fast lane

I'll rush this life, at my own pace



[Chorus]

That's the way I am

That's the way life goes

This is who I wanna be

And that's the way, it's gonna be

That's the way I am 

And baby, this I know

In all of this insanity

I'm everything, I wanna be

That's the way I am - yeah (the way I am)

That's the way I am (the way I am)



That's the way I am - yeah 

That's the way I am - alright (the way I am)



I've been messed up, tossed around

I've been knocked down

The rest is the way life is now

That's the way I am
