- I Am LyricsI am your spoken truth
I am the lies in you
I'm gonna make you shine in everything you do
I am your lighted way
And I'm your darkest day
I'm here to help you see you can rely on me
Just consider me your friend
I am until the end
Can I guarantee you life?
I don't think I can
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
I am your peace of mind
Confusing all your time
I'm running through your veins, I am your pain
I thought by now you'd know
I'll never let you go
It's time you recognize I am the devil's eyes
Just consider me your friend
I am until the end
Can I guarantee you life?
I don't think I can
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
Take me by my hand
And let me show you what I am
I'm taking control again
Now I know I can
Take you back to where it all began
'Cause I am
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
I am the lies in you
I'm gonna make you shine in everything you do
I am your lighted way
And I'm your darkest day
I'm here to help you see you can rely on me
Just consider me your friend
I am until the end
Can I guarantee you life?
I don't think I can
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
I am your peace of mind
Confusing all your time
I'm running through your veins, I am your pain
I thought by now you'd know
I'll never let you go
It's time you recognize I am the devil's eyes
Just consider me your friend
I am until the end
Can I guarantee you life?
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
Take me by my hand
And let me show you what I am
I'm taking control again
Now I know I can
Take you back to where it all began
'Cause I am
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
This isn't the life for me
This isn't the way I want to be
And let me tell you
Death will come when I'm good and ready
Facts about I Am
✔️
I Am is written by Salvatore P. Erna.
✔️
It is first released on April 08, 2003 as part of Godsmack's album "Faceless" which includes 12 tracks in total. This song is the 9th track on this album.
✔️
When we ask ourselves what the song was truly meant to express, Godsmack's 'I Am' motif is a passionate dialogue between the singer and his sinful self, the devil, and the weakness-the very subjects of the song. The lyrics are such that they would remind you of a fight between good and evil within a man, where the evil-sinful part is always hiding behind the light, and the struggle takes place in the view of mountains, peace, and suffering. The line 'I'll die when I'm good and ready' which recurs throughout the song, indicates a person's valiant attitude towards the end of life and that he/she has the last word on his/her destiny, hence, the self-empowerment idea is accentuated even during the chaos of one's mind. The I Am lyrics suggest mostly contemplation, angst, social commentary, self-empowerment, and despair. Meanwhile, the song points out the need to go through identity crisis, the role of friendships and support, the battle with death, and the personal struggles. It is true that the lyrics touch upon existential hardship and even death, which might be regarded as not suitable for kids below 13 years of age. Although there is no foul language or graphic images, the serious topics make it a PG-13.
