Am What I Am Lyrics

Am What I Am lyrics

This is ghetto reality in Texas..



[Hook - 2x]

You see I am
what I am, and it is what it is

You'd feel how I feel, if you been where
I been

Live what I live, see what I see

So get out my ear, and just
let me be



[Paul Wall]

I'm a survivor of the struggle, I lived
life hard

Single mama with half a job, I was raised by God

No dad,
the only role model I had

Was a ounce of that white powder, in a Ziplock
bag

I don't brag about the struggles, I endured as a child

You
don't know the pain I went through, to create this smile

I got one life
to live, know I'm tal'n bout

So I enjoy it, cause I earned everything
that I got

They hate what I got, I hear em with they cape talk

They
thinking that my life, was a cake walk

I'm a man of principles, I live by
my word

So it's obsurred, when I hear sour words

They gon get what
they deserve, but I don't wish no harm

What goes around comes around, so
partna you been warned

In the midst of all the trouble, I still remain
calm

Cause sunny days, will follow the storm man, just let me be



[Hook - 2x]



[Poppy]

Somebody questioned, if I got
the right to recite what I spit

Cause I've never been indicted, or
divided a brick

But my life is grit, all types of crisis and shit

I
decided to risk it all, to try to slide in the mix

And get what I can get,
see I'm fighting negative bars

I knew it wouldn't be easy, but no one said
it be hard

As it is, I mean the evil in the heart of these men

Got
me wondering, if I'll ever see the reward

At the end of the road, it's
kind of hard to remember your goals

When you grow where, not many live to
get old

I played the cards that I was given, and never listen to those

Who think different
