I Am What I Am (Copenhagen WorldPride 2021 Anthem)

I am what I am
I am my own special creation
So come take a look
Give me the hook or the ovation
It's my world
That I want to have a little pride in
My world
And it's not a place I have to hide in
Life's not worth a damn
'Til you can say I am what I am

I am what I am
I don't want praise, I don't want pity
I bang my own drum
Some think it's noise, I think it's pretty
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle
Why not try to see things from a different angle
Your life is a sham
'Til you can shout out, I am what I am

I am, I am, I am good
I am, I am, I am strong
I am, I am, I am worthy
I am, I am I belong
I am, I am, I am useful
I am, I am, I am true
I am, I am, I am somebody
I am as good as you

I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the ace, sometimes the deuces
It's one life and there's no return and no a deposit
One life. So it's time to open up your closet
Life's not worth a damn
'Til you can shout out, I am what I am

I am what I am
I am what I am
I am, I am, I am useful
I am, I am, I am true
I am what I am
I am, I am, I am somebody
I am as good as you
