"I Am" comes off Kid Rock's self-titled 2003 album, the fourth single pulled from it, and it went out without a music video. It's Kid Rock squaring his shoulders against Hollywood and insisting he's the genuine article, not a fake. He wrote it with Arthur Penhallow Jr., C. Wojcik and Huck Johns, a local artist from Detroit.

Marlon Young plays electric guitar on it, an early sighting of the player who took over lead guitar full-time from Kenny Olson in 2008. Even without a video to push it, the song climbed to number 28 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart.
