I Am Lyrics

In blues jeans and misery, I stand proud

The old soul with the kid's mouth

I've never known patience, and I've never known peace

But I'll make the sinners believe

I am my folk's legacy

And I am my own man

And I've heard the tales of old

Of fallin' for fools' gold

But I know it won't be me

Fleet footed my conscience is adamant

And my thoughts are affluent

I know my own path, though not what it's about

But I've figured this much out

I am my folk's legacy

And I am my own man

And I've heard the tales of old

Of fallin' for fools' gold

But I know it won't be me

I am my folk's legacy

And I am my own man

And I've heard the tales of old

Of fallin' for fools' gold

But I know it won't be me

My mistakes are my own to make

And I thank God for every one of those days

So if you want someone with patience

Who's comfortable with piece

I know it won't be me

If you want someone with patience

Who's comfortable with piece

I know it won't be me
