[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
N***as 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
