Tommy Castro - It is what it is lyrics

I been obnoxious I been unconscious I been all kinds of things that are hard to spell I've been unruly Speakin' truly I've been so cool, I couldn't hardly even stand myself I've been a monster Without a sponsor I've been Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde I've been a gonner I've been a loner And when my mixture was right I'm a nice bunch of guys I am what I am 'Cause I ain't what I used to be 'Cause it is what it is But it ain't what it used to be I've been a mover I've was a shaker You had a girlfriend I tried to snake her I been mysterious I been delirious I been so weird it woulda k**ed a normal man I wanted money I wanted power I want a monument kinda like the Eifel Tower I been lost at sea I been lost in space And when I fall in love I fall all over the place I am what I am 'Cause I ain't what I used to be 'Cause it is what it is But it ain't what it used to be Oh, you can go on forever and make the same mistakes Or you can stand up on your hind legs and change your fate Go on and do, until you finally see What it is that it was that you don't wanna be I was an outlaw I was an inlaw I was a scapegoat, that was the last straw I hit the highway Singin', "My way." But it wound up soundin' like, "You'll Never Walk Alone." I got a story Reflected glory Is the way that I been seein' for most of my life I heard the laughter Up in the rafter But I never, ever thought that the joke was on me I am what I am 'Cause I ain't what I used to be 'Cause it is what it is But it ain't what it used to be Yeah, I am what I am 'Cause I ain't what I used to be 'Cause it is what it is But it ain't what it used to be
