I AM WHAT I AM (Trans Pride)
(by Lenny Zenith)
Stand tall, be proud, keep your head up
Be strong
So here's to all those who've found their way
And those who journey on each day.
The person you were meant to be
To live your true identity
To live with love authentically
With courage you can set yourself free
CHORUS
I am what I am, no matter what they say
transgender and proud, never afraid to show my face
I won't let society, dictate just who I'm meant to be
I’m beautiful and proud, for the whole wide world to see
Break the chains of conformity
Just ignore what they want you to be
With every step and stand take
you’re breaking down the walls of hate
CHORUS
I am what I am, no matter what they say
transgender and proud, never afraid to show my face
I won't let society, dictate just who I'm meant to be
I’m beautiful and proud, for the whole wide world to see
BRIDGE
You are valid you are loved you divine
Step into the light and trust that
Everything is fine
Break the chains of conformity
Just ignore what they want you to be
With every step and stand take
you’re breaking down the walls of hate
CHORUS
I am what I am, no matter what they say
transgender and proud, never afraid to show my face
I won't let society, dictate just who I'm meant to be
I’m beautiful and proud, for the whole wide world to see
I won't let society, dictate just who I'm meant to be
I’m beautiful and proud, for the whole wide world to see
