[Intro]

Keep it looping

Aye aye

Let me say something

[Verse 1]

Damn did that shit just happen

My brothers on the slave ship we just flipped the captain

Niggas like to act hip so they seat the wagon

New dress new kicks did we beat the Kardashians

Actors actors all I see is actors

Rappers with the accent

Bitches with the catfish

Actors actors all I see is actors

Wannabee gangsters

Flex hard bankers

Damn I ain't gonna roll like that

Man when you gonna face those facts

Fans when you gonna play my tracks

Man when you gonna see your wack

Beef when you gonna plate that crap

See I don't really play like that

Me only thing I'm good at

That and rap

[Chorus]

I am what I am I'm just saying (I'm just saying)

Homie this is me if only you could see

This is who I am man understand (understand)

You could choose to be who the fuck you want to be

Like I am what I am I'm just saying (I'm just saying)

Homie this is me if only you could see

This is who I am man understand (understand)

You could choose to be who the fuck you want to be

{Verse 2}

Check it uh

Talk about patience I can't wait for it

Talk about my job I can't wait to quit

Talk about a stand I can't wait to sit

Talk about the man like we hate the kid

All Australian bad ass

We own the globe like an Atlas

I put my skills into practice

I got no room to be average

These days they like you for status

I was lost like I was Alice

I paint the beat like a canvas

While you sleep on your mattress

I used to sleep with an Actress

She liked me coz of my blackness

Fashion statement like glasses

You used to skip all your classes

Now you rich off my taxes

And I'm poor with no assets

How the fuck did that happen

Actors keep on just acting

[Chorus]

I am what I am I'm just saying (I'm just saying)

Homie this is me if only you could see

This is who I am man understand (understand)

You could choose to be who the fuck you want to be

Like I am what I am I'm just saying (I'm just saying)

Homie this is me if only you could see

This is who I am man understand (understand)

You could choose to be who the fuck you want to be

[Verse 3]

Why do I

Yeah

Let me say something ok

Yeah why do we try yeah why do we

You'll never know if you don't try

A diamond in a haystacks hard to find

We never knew when to draw the line

It's funny how it takes time to know time flies

I remember sleeping at your mummas crib

I remember I remember what we did

I remember lying say I'll never lie to you

I remember showing you songs I would do

Coz it's real hard to find someone like you like you like you

And now you're gone

I'll be alright with the two of us

I ain't got no time for a tour bus

My hearts already on the road

My hearts already gone cold

I'm way too high to be low

My ways still out of control

I might just give you a call

I might just jump off the wall

Will you catch me if I fall

Will you answer if I call

I don't know anymore

Have a past we can't ignore

We haven't even bumped in the store

Who was by your bed side what we fighting for

And I made it pretty clear

I'm not the same as these other rappers

I don't just disappear

Yeah why do I try

I already died inside

You had your chance to save

Modern day slaves put that shit on my grave
