Mike Posner - Be As You Are lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Virginia Woolf and poetry

No one seemed to notice me

Bein' young was gettin' so old

Cheap beer and cigarettes

Life was like a movie set

And I seemed to be given no role

(Pre-Chorus)

But in times of trouble

I can turn to my mother

And I know that she gon understand

So at age twenty two

I cried to my mother

And she told me, 'young man',

(Chorus)

'There are moments when u fall to the ground

But u are stronger than u feel u are now

U don't always have to speak so loud, no

Just be as u are

Life is not always a comfortable ride

Everybody's got scars that they hide

And everybody plays the fool sometimes, yeah

Just be as u are!'

(Verse 2)

They played me on the radio

And everythin' was changin', so

I thought I was all the way grown

But I can still remember in that cold November

When I realized I'm all alone

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

'There are moments when u fall to the ground

But u are stronger than u feel u are now

U don't always have to speak so loud, no

Just be as u are

It doesn't matter if u become some star

Life is betta when u open ur heart

U don't always have to act so hard, no

Just be as u are!'

(Bridge)

If I'm speakin' truthfully

I'm not who I used to be

And I know some people might laugh

Cos' my music doesn't sound the same

And my head's no longer shaved

I'm worried if I'm on the right path

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)
