Mary J. Blige - Take Me As I Am lyrics
rate meShe's been down and out, she's been wrote about<br />
She's been talked about constantly<br />
She's been up and down, she's been pushed around<br />
But they held her down NYC<br />
<br />
She has no regrets, she accepts the past<br />
All these things they help to make she<br />
She's been lost and found but she's still around<br />
There's a reason for everything, yeah<br />
<br />
You know I've been holding on<br />
Try to make me weak but I still stay strong<br />
Put my life all up in these songs<br />
Just so you can feel me<br />
<br />
So take me as I am<br />
Or have nothing at all<br />
Just take me as I am<br />
Or have nothing at all<br />
<br />
Yeah, she's older now, yeah she's wiser now<br />
Can't disguise her now, she don't need<br />
No one telling her what to do and say<br />
No one telling her who to be<br />
<br />
She's on solid ground, she's been lost and found<br />
But she answers to G O D<br />
And she's confident this is not the end<br />
Ask me how I know 'cause she is me<br />
<br />
You know I've been holding on<br />
Try to make me weak but I still stay strong<br />
Put my life all up in these songs<br />
Just so you can feel me<br />
<br />
So take me as I am<br />
Or have nothing at all<br />
Just take me as I am<br />
Or have nothing at all<br />
<br />
So it's all or nothing at all, all or nothing at all<br />
Don't you know I can only be me, yeah<br />
So it's all or nothing at all, all or nothing at all<br />
Don't you know I can only be me?<br />
<br />
So take me as I am<br />
Or have nothing at all<br />
Just take me as I am<br />
Or have nothing at all<br />
<br />
Take me as I am<br />
Take me as I am<br />
Said it's all or nothing at all<br />
Said it's all or nothing at all<br />
<br />
Just take me as I am<br />
Or have nothing at all<br />
<br />
Just take me as I am<br />
Or have nothing, nothing at all<br />
Just take me as I am<br />
Or have nothing, nothing<br /><br />
