Lyrics The Man I Am - Kolohe Kai
From
Bahanapana
days,
playin′
in
the
waves
I
couldn't
help
be
happy.
Come
to
middle
school,
tryin′
to
be
cool
Strugglin'
to
find
my
identity.
From
the
first
day
I
picked
up
my
guitar
I
never
thought
that
I
would
come
this
far.
Oh,
graduation,
yes
it
came
so
fast,
I
never
thought
it'd
pass.
Yeah
I
can′t
remember
all
the
steps
I
took
But
all
I
know
is
that
they
led
me
here
to
look
at
them
And
smile
Yeah
And
if
it
wasn′t
for
my
past
disgressions,
Who
is
to
say
that
I
would
be
the
man
That
I
am
Today.
The
man
I
am.
Summers
in
Kauai,
Surfing
in
July,
Every
jam
sesh
help
me
to
be
Grateful
for
today,
and
excited
for
tomorrow.
Every
wave
helped
me
to
see
That
this
couldn't
have
been
just
a
coincidence
That
I
so
happened
to
be
on
this
side
of
the
fence.
I
think
it
had
to
be
the
choices
I
made
So
that
I′d
never
fade.
Yeah
I
can't
remember
all
the
teps
I
took,
But
all
I
know
is
that
they
led
me
here
to
look
at
them
And
smile
Yeah
And
if
it
wasn′t
for
my
past
disgressions,
Who
is
to
say
that
I
would
be
the
man
That
I
am
Today.
The
man
I
am.
Ho-ohh
The
man
I
am.
With
every
wave
that
I've
caught
Helped
my
train
of
thought.
Every
song
that
I
sing
helps
me
see
That
every
obstacle
I
face,
I
can
erase
′Cause
it
led
me
to
the
place
I
wanna
be.
This
is
the
man
that
I
am.
And
this
is
the
man
that
I
wanna
be.
The
man
I
am
Ohh
The
man
I
am
Yeah
The
man
I
am
