Who I Am
Jonas Brother Lyrics

I am what I am
I am who I am as an individual and cannot change my personality.

I can't help myself
I am true to myself and cannot fake my identity to please others.

And if you don't like it
If someone dislikes who I am, it is their problem and not mine.

Get with somebody else
If someone cannot accept me for who I am, they can find someone else.

I'll never change my ways
I will always stay true to who I am and my beliefs.

It's not a phase
My personality is not temporary or influenced by outside factors.

This is how it is and this is how it's gonna stay
I refuse to change who I am to conform to society's norms.

Because
This is my absolute truth and there is no other way around it.

I am what I am I know what I'm not
I know my true self and am not someone who tries to be someone else.

I'm not the type of guy
I am not the kind of person who takes things for granted.

That doesn't know how good he's got it
I appreciate what I have and I am grateful for it.

And I won't back down
I stand my ground and do not let anyone else dictate my life's choices.

Won't come around
I will not change even if someone tells me to.

Saying that I changed cause
Others may accuse me of changing my personality, but that is not true.

That's not how it's going down
I will not let others define my identity or make me change.

And I know (I know, I know)
I have complete certainty about who I am.

Wherever I go (I go, I go)
No matter where I am, my identity remains the same.

I know where I stand
I am confident in my beliefs and who I am as an individual.

Hey! Hey!
An expression of affirmation for oneself.

What can I say?
I cannot change who I am, so there is nothing I can say to convince others otherwise.

I'm gonna be this way
I will always be true to myself.

Right up until my dying day
I will not change who I am even as I approach the end of my life.

Because that's how it goes head to my toes
My true self is ingrained in every part of me.

And if it doesn't show well I just had to let you know
Sometimes my true identity may not be obvious to others, but I want them to understand that it is still there.

And nobody else
My identity is solely mine and cannot be influenced by anyone else.

Better take it somewhere else
Others should not try to change me or tell me who I should be.

I can't turn back
I will not change my true self to satisfy others.

I'm right on track
I am content with the path I have chosen for myself.

And if you think you know
Others may assume they know who I am, but they really do not.

Well then you better check your facts
People should make sure they really know me before assuming things about me.

Oh can't you see
I want others to understand and accept who I am.

I'm just being me
I am always my true self and cannot be someone else.

I can't be you
I cannot change my identity to match someone else's.

And I don't want to be
I am perfectly content with who I am and do not aspire to be someone else.

Don't try to get
Others should not try to change me or influence me to be someone else.

Inside my head
Others should not try to understand or analyze my true self.

Cause what you see is what you get
My true self is what others see and there is nothing more to discover.
